New Things



I just love making these bath salt parfaits. There is a lady on youtube that shared her recipe and they are just so much fun. You can use her recipe or make some changes like I did and make it your own. Her channel is velvetinkcafe. You'll love her channel.



I saw this wreath made out of coffee filters on the internet somewhere and just had to try it. I love how it turned out. I'm not finished with it. I want to add some pink things to it and put it in my girls' room. It's so cool looking ;0). I burned my hand so bad with my glue gun making this! Careful with the glue gun. If you want to make one, just google it and the girl's tutorial will come up.



This is a Lush dupe and I should have listed it already on my etsy but just haven't gotten around to it. I will try and list it sometime today. It's one of our favorites. The hearts make it so girly looking.





I made these tea tree oil bars for my daughter. She uses them as facial soap. I made them extra pretty for her this time. I put some sugar and cosmetic glitter on top. It washes off after the first use but it's fun for her to have pretty soap too. I love the smell of tea tree oil...it has a warm smell to me. We also use this bar for a shampoo too. Shampoo bars are great for my girls' curls.

I soaped this a couple of days ago. It's called Burgundy Rose and it smells just like fresh cut roses to me. I love it.

Happy New Year to you! I hope each one of you had a blessed Christmas with your families. I am looking forward to a great year and I hope you are too. I will be posting a few pictures of the making of homemade laundry detergent later. It is so easy and will save you so much money. Even if you're not interested in doing it for yourself, pass the recipe onto someone else who really needs to save money.
