Hello September-DIY sweet gift wrapping


Hello, September! We finally meet again. September is my birth month, and I've always enjoyed the cool air that begins to fill this month.

I appreciate the beautiful colors of blooming flowers and the old ones that slowly fade. It's all just so lovely. Since I love personalized gift wrapping, I decided to create something special. It’s a sweet gift wrap to welcome Autumn, which will soon be upon us.

**Materials needed:**

- Paper bag (for wrapping the package)
- Washi tape (I absolutely love washi tape, and I think you will too!)
- Fresh flowers
- Twine


**Here's what you'll need to do:**

It’s pretty simple:
1. Grab your special gift.
2. Insert it into the paper bag.
3. Wrap it up and apply your washi tape.
4. Using the twine, tie some fresh flowers to your wrapped gift.

You're all done and ready to give your beautifully wrapped gift to someone special. Enjoy!

Two good scents- Review & giveaway

 (Review and giveaway)- Two Good Scents  Sugar Scrubs These days I'm feeling very pregnant. So when the chance comes along to pamper myself, I'm definitely up for it. We can all use some pampering from time to time. :) I was contacted by Nancy over at http://www.twogoodscents.com/. She kindly offered to send me some of her products in exchange for a fair review of the items I get. No other compensation was provided for this review.  I received my products in a padded envelope stuffed with decorative tissue paper.  The containers were well-padded to protect the plastic containers.  After opening up the package, I took out the sealed jars, which had a professional look along with cute labels.  I opened each of them, one at a time.  My initial reactions were to the scents of the scrubs.  My personal favorite was the blossom scrub, which was reminiscent of a nice, clean, soft, flowery soap bar.  The others I received w...

Hello everyone! I'm excited to share this easy upcycling project with you. We'll be making place cards by repurposing cardboard.
