Sweet! I love the pink and white swirls..=)

Feature: Tub Time Treasures!

I was so excited when I saw a package peeking out from the mailbox this morning!

It was my package from Renee Lillie, owner of TubTimeTreasures!

 All I could say is WOW!

The box was jam packed full of sweet & yummy treats for the tub! She is such an incredible soap artist and her scents are AMAZING! All the items are so wonderful it's really hard to pick a fav!

Here is a snapshot of all the goodies that came!

"Summer Melon Spritzer"

Solid Sugar Scrub

This has got to be the best sugar scrub I have EVER used! It left my hands feeling soft, clean and refreshed. I also love how the scrub comes in cubes. Makes it so much easier to use and trust me, ONE goes a long way! They looked so juicy and smelled so good my Hubby almost took a bite!!

"Chocolate Cupcake"

Kip's Kupcake Bath Bomb

I haven't used this yet, but I did open it up to take a good whiff..lol It smells JUST like a yummy Chocolate Cupcake! It arrived in mint condition and I can't wait to try it out! The frosting on top looks so real!

"Pomegranate Cider"

Body Frosting

I used a little this afternoon on my hands after I worked in the garden. hehe, I really can't wait to even take a shower or bath! It also left my hands smooth and soft. The Pomegranate Cider smells divine and
is def on my top scent list now!

"Cucumber Melon" 
Lip Scrub

I have never even used a lip scrub until today. WOW! What a sweet treat for your lips!
I felt like I was at a spa!

"Honey" Lip Gloss
and
"Vanilla Buttercream" Lip Butter

I really enjoyed getting these in my goody box. I love Love LOVE lip gloss and lip butters! The honey smells identical to honey and the vanilla buttercream lip butter smells good enough to eat!

Both are smooth to the lips, not too greasy or sticky.

Her products are absolutely wonderful and I just had to feature her shop!
I asked how She got started and this is what she said:

 Shop: TubTimeTreasures
Owner: Renee Lillie

I started getting interested in soaping when I lost my job last year. I was in an Etsy chat room, when someone posted a cupcake bath bomb. They were SO cute, I IMMEDIATELY searched for a recipe and bought what I needed to make them! Over time I've tweaked my recipe, and have found some soaping blogs online that I follow, and have accumulated other recipes. The Solid Sugar Scrub cubes are some of my favorites to make (and use!)! The lip scrubs, butters and glosses are fun too! There's just so much versatility in bath and body products, and SO many different yummy fragrance combinations, that it's easy to stay excited with what you're making!!

♥♥October Featured Seller♥♥

I want to share some of my favorite Etsy Shops in a monthly feature! We all work very hard on our handmade, handcrafted items & I want to show my appreciation! This month's featured shop & seller is BubblesUpByBethieB. She is a very talented "artist" I would say, of handmade soap. I just love this Scrumptious & Spicy Cinnamon Coffee bar I purchase this month. It smells SOOO good! The overall appearance of her soaps drawn me to her shop. I was so excited when it arrived! So get over there & check out all those Yummy Soaps!

This is what BubblesUpByBethieB has to say:
I produce handcrafted soaps in the beautiful town of Skaneateles, located in upstate New York. Bubbles Up! soaps are fun, fragrant, and good for your skin - they have no artificial lathering agents like SLS or SLES, and no propylene glycol. Just yummy ingredients like real yogurt, molasses, vegetable and plant oils, fruit, goats milk, and raw honey straight from the hive.

All soaps arrive wrapped and ready for gift giving. Soaps purchased as gifts can include a personalized gift note - just let me know. I love making fun, playful soaps for children and parties - no order is too big or too small!
