Christmas Soap

Okay well on my last post I mentioned I would try to keep up with some Holiday Gift ideas so here I am again.  While I am not a very proficiant blogger I will try. 

The mittens in my last post have sold.  I really liked those mittens and have a bitter sweet feeling that they are gone.

Here are some fun soaps to dress up your own bathroom or gift to those who would enjoy them as well.


Sant's Beard Soap

From the Soap Garden Shop on Etsy "I've been a good girl all year long, but I always feel that a little extra kindness can't hurt; and that's why I leave cookies for Santa! This soap is what I imagine Santa's beard to look like after eating all those cookies, just covered in sprinkles. The scent of this soap is called Christmas Cookies - how cute is that? :) "






Candy Cane Soap

From Lippincott Soap Co "Our "Candy Cane" handmade cold process soap smells like a minty Christmas candy cane. The scent is a true "wake-you-up" fragrance. Sure to become a favorite with children of all ages.

This soap is made with skin-loving olive, palm, coconut, canola and castor oils. We've also "superfatted" it with shea butter for that extra boost of luxury. The added castor oil creates lots of creamy, bubbly lather."





Christmas Soap Bar Swirl in Red, White & Green

From Soap Rhapsody "Bright and cheerful, this Christmas Soap bar is swirled in bright red, white and green. The bar is the perfect addition to any bath or kitchen for the holidays. This bar is scented with my own blend of Sweet Orange with barely a hint of Clove"

Are you ready for the holidays?!  I know for me I can't wait for this time of year to get here and then when it does it's like WAIT!.... Slow down!... I need more time! 

Here are some great items I have found on Etsy to share with you.  I will be posting as many as I can in the next few days and weeks.  Some will be from my shop and others from some of my favorite shops.  There is nothing like getting a special item picked out just for you. 
Who wouldn't love a pair of these beauties??  Created by UnlimitedCraftworks.  Hand Knit and just beautiful they are sure to please the pickiest of people.  There are many other colors in their shop as well as items like socks, gloves, hats and jackets!

How about topping off your favorite bottle of Havest wine with this Beautiful

Tulipwood Acorn Style Wine Bottle Stopper . Here is a description from MapleSeedGallery on Etsy "Tulipwood Bottle Stopper, with acorn textured design. Made with high quality natural cork. A great gift for the wine enthusiast (or for yourself). Also great for most salad dressing cruets, or other standard sized bottles.Hand rubbed french polish style finish. Handcrafted (woodturned) in Canada by Irwin Seidman.About the wood: Tulipwood is a pinkish-yellow colour with very prominent stripes ranging from pink to dark red. The species is found on the Eastern side of North America and also in some parts of China. In the United States, it is commonly known as tulip poplar or yellow poplar, even though the tree is not related to the poplars. In fact, the reference to poplar is thought to be as a result of the tree's height, which can exceed 100 feet."

Here are some beautiful note cards with signs of the Season. By RabbitWiskers on Etsy From the listing "
The "package" consists of five blank white notecards and envelopes, measuring 5.25" x 7.25", allowing lots of room for note writing. Centered on the cover of each notecard is a beautiful glossy, 4" x 6" photo of one of my scenes. Each pack will contain 5 different photos,the first 4 you see pictured & a fifth of my choice; a free surprise! I have tried to group them as being in some way related, so if desired, they can be framed and hung on a wall, rather than used for note writing"

This one is a Hoot! yeah... I went there. I sweet dish towel to hang out for the season. They make great Hostess gifts too! Woodland Owls Dishtowel Dress

by Klosti on Etsy. From shop

"This cutie has an off-white plush terry towel skirt printed with a whimsical tree and two owls on its branches. Her coordinating cotton top is a rust and gold window pane check. This dish towel dress has the same design on the front and back- one side for every day and flip for a clean and fresh look for company. She measures 9” at the shoulders, 18 1/2” long, and has velcro closures at the waist that make it easy to hang over your oven handle, dishwasher handle or even your bathroom towel bar. She's good looking and practical!"
