This Week's Featured HAF Artist/Team-Reef Botanicals

I love handmade/handcrafted soaps and facial products.  That's why I really love this weeks featured HAF shop, Reef Botanicals.  Larissa and Eric are the owners of Reef Botanicals.  It offers Handcrafted Soaps and other Indulgences.  They handcraft all the products themselves, from their own recipes without using any pre-made bases.  They use only all natural ingredients with essential oils, instead of synthetic oils. (I love essential oiles).  They use the same standard for any colorants used in the wonderful products.  Most of their soaps are suitable for vegans and they never test any of their products on animals. (As an animal lover, I really appreciate that.)  Doesn't this just sound Delicious?  Chocolate Decadence Pillar Candle?  As a Chocoholic, this one sounds good enough to eat. LOL

And what a great way to relax, with these Vanilla Latte Bath Salts, scented with Coffee Essential oil and just a touch of Vanilla Essential oil.  They also include Dead Sea Salt and its rare elements, unrefined Pink Himalayan Salt with its 84 minerals, well-balanced Organic French Grey Salt, Epsom Salt, and Dendritic Salt. They're formulated to give you the most benefit from the minerals and elements and to hold their scents better and longer than other bath salts. Just a scoop or two will make every bath an event.  So check out their great shop, Reef Botanicals.  I'm sure you'll find something to love.

All things Texas, horses, outhouses and Shop of the Day

I love Texas. All things Texas. So today's shop tickled me with 2 things I usually associate with Texas. (Yes I know, the outhouse is mainly a country thing, for anywhere) PinkParchmentSoaps has the cutest soaps in all sorts of shapes and designs. And best of all they're made with natural ingredients! For just a glimpse of what she's got take a peek at the horse head soap and the outhouse soap in the box to the right. I love horses, so that one really appealed to me. And the outhouse just made me laugh. Now we all need soaps so this is a great shop to visit.

However, if you want something Texas but not something that will disappear shortly (after it's used up) check out my Texas kiln carving pictured here. You can find it at my shops on either Etsy or Artfire. There's all kinds of unique glass items in either shop.And if you don't necessarily want something Texas, but want to support a newbie from Texas and help her get her first sale check out STRINGandSTONES for some gorgeous jewelry.
