Honey Face Cream

I have been making my own face cream for 3 years now.  I also make it for my mom, mother-in-law and a few others.  Everyone who has tried it, loves it.  Well, I am finally going to try and sell it!  I ordered some labels, which I am in love with.  I hope everyone likes it as much as we do!

I wanted to incorporate some honey in the pictures.

What do you think about the labels?

This is a big step for me!  I never planned on selling it, but it is worth a try.  If they don't sell, I will have great gifts!

There are 3 main ingredients in the face cream that make it so amazing!

Honey ~ Honey has the ability to attract and maintain moisture. The skin's ability to stay moist is an important factor in its ability to maintain softness, suppleness and elasticity.

Shea Butter ~ Shea Butter is known for its softening and restructuring virtues. It also aids in the prevention of stretch marks and delays aging. It is a natural sunscreen.

Vitamin E ~ Vitamin E is an antioxidant that prevents radical damage to skin tissue. It also conditions and moisturizes the skin.

I am having a Holiday Sale in my studio now.  You can find the face cream listing here http://www.artfire.com/modules.php?name=Shop&op=listing&product_id=2417483.

Enjoy!

Girl Burp Cloths

Ok, I know this is not my usual thing...I had a double baby shower to go to last night.  Both women are having girls!  I got the idea from a friend to make burp cloths for them.  It had never crossed my mind to make them something.  I was going to go to the store and get something everyone else had.  I can't believe I was going to do that!  I am creative.  I can make gifts instead of buying.  Handmade is so much better!  More personal.  Here is what I made for them.

I was going to give the burp cloths to them matching, but variety is good!  They have 2 different patterns.

The pattern fabric is cotton and the pink fabric is flannel.  Absorbent and it stays put!

Showing off the back with my labels :)

The whole front and back...

Up close...My sewing is pretty good, isn't it?

Folded and ready to go into the baby gift bag.

Unfortunately, one of the ladies was sick.  She will get her gift next month.  The other lady loved her burp cloths!  She said they were too pretty to use...awwwwww :)  Everyone said they were her "going out" burp cloths.  I guess they were a hit!  Now I want to make some boy ones ;)
