Dedicated to providing a superior line of handcrafted natural skin care products, PureNaturals has something to be proud of ! I have personally worked with Dan, a fellow Wisconsinite, on some of my skin care issues and learned lots of new information about skin hydration !

All of PureNaturals products use only the highest quality ingredients to enhance your skin’s health and natural beauty. I tried both the Chocolate Milk Facial Mask and The Nourishing Yogurt Facial Mask. I used a hydrating cream as the “mixer” instead of plain water. Both of these masks worked beautifully and made my skin feel moist and hydrated. If pressed, I would choose the Chocolate Milk Facial Mask as it smelled absolutely divine !

Meet TheWhirlwind ! Marie, a graphic designer from Texas, enjoys making jewelry with her spare time. She loves working with anything from fine gemstones to vintage glass.

 

I especially like these….

 

 

Matte clear frosted smooth glass briolettes are wire wrapped with oxidized sterling silver that is polished to show shine and texture. She paired them with handmade matte oxidized sterling earwires. (Available for $27 in her etsy shop).

Marie also likes to spend my time doing word puzzles, history, politics, nature, psychology, cats, and good jokes.

Marie welcomes special requests and enjoys recreating sold pieces or the challenge of creating something new and fresh.

The minute I stumbled into Crafty Pagan’s Etsy Shop, I knew I would be kicked out for drooling all over everything.  Yet I couldn’t help myself. There are so many beautiful handmade vintage gift tags and greeting cards that I would be hard pressed to pick what would top my favorites list.  Yes I was in full blown “gimme one of everything” mode.

 

I was initially drawn in by these beautiful love tags.

 

Then I fell in love with these french script tags too !

 

 

There is something for everyone in this shop ! Themed items from The Wizard Of Oz and Alice In Wonderland, canvases and altered art, greeting cards and more !  Based out of the UK, everything is handcrafted with love and care !

I got a few of these beauties for my niece Peyton and they are simply adorable ! Offered by CortsThings on etsy, they sell for $1.75 each.

 

 

These washcloths are perfect for baby or toddler. They are made with soft flannel on top and bottom for extra softness.

This yoga mat has been hand painted with beautiful tulips and monarch butterflies. It is painted on a classic 1/8 inch thick sticky mat. The dimensions are 68” x 24” x 1/8”. They are extremely durable with a textured, non-slip surface. They are completely latex free. The mats are very high quality, so they will last longer than most standard foam mats. The paint I use is 100% non-toxic. The edges are cut, so your mat would be like no other.

 

 

 

Offered by flowyogamats, this mat sells for $53.

I have not cried this much in a very, very long time. The story of a little girl from Cypress, Texas named Layla Grace has really spoken to me. I was so touched by the story of this little girls bravery and what she has gone through- and have been inspired as thousands of others have, by her spirit and that of her family.

Layla Grace is quickly losing her battle. Please pray for Layla and her family.

If you have an etsy shop (or website) and can list an item or two with profits going to the family or donate part of your profits for a day to this family, please consider it.

 

You can follow her journey here: LaylaGrace.org 

Updates on Layla’s Condition are posted throughout the day on Twitter.
