Yesterday, the new Thanksgiving Body Care Collection, coming sometime between now, and the September 27th store launch, was shared on Instagram by numerous people.  We all got to see the photos of three scents, read the scent notes, and see the accreditation of who shared what.  I was happy to see more new. I saw all of the photos an...

Grief. When I received the phone call in the early morning hours two weeks ago from my aunt from the emergency room, I was surprised to say the least.  My uncle did have some health issues that he has battled over the years but his unexpected passing while walking up the stairs for bed...that, was shocking. Shocking because of the sudden loss ...

With the past two weeks being very hectic, I haven't added anything to my postings as far as Bath and Body Works information.  So as things start to regain some normalcy, whatever that is, I will start adding postings of the Fall 2 things that hit stores.  Then, I will add any new Fall 3 information...and Holiday.   Even though you k...

Nature has this way of making things better.  It always has for me, and the more time I spend outdoors around the green, and the blue skies...the better I feel.  Today's visit to the farm was no exception on feeling good out in nature when I stumbled on a much more developed Sunflower Patch.  Photos cannot do it justice.

There are a few new gnomes and pumpkins added to my ETSY shop yesterday should you want to check them out.  The little pink hat gnome was made to be a tooth fairy, and it comes with a tulle bag for the tooth/money. I did not add a clay tooth on her hat just in case some one wanted a pink princess fairy gnome.  And should I have the time t...

I shared in an earlier post some of the metal items I found at my local Dollar Tree store from the photo taken in store.  I didn't realize that it didn't show them as three dimensional, so I wanted to get a better picture of them...as I decide how I am going to use them.  They are already sold out from only a few days ago.  I did add...

Memorial Day 2021

As I wait for my store to unpack more of the new that sits waiting on the floor and random carts, I grabbed a few things on this visit to Dollar Tree.  I love the color of the glass on the candle holders.  A perfect summer turquoise, like the waters of a summer beach getaway, these holders can be used all year long if you change out the f...

As the days get warmer, and the nights get longer I find a bit more time in my day to get more things accomplished.  The length of the to-do list is still long as some of those things on it depend on the weather, but with more sunshine filled days they can quickly get checked off.  Some nights I sit and stare at the keys exhausted from th...
