Looking for a shave cream ... just for women?

Then try Whish shaving products!

These look like so much fun!

I love the crisp, clear design of the website.

I also love the fact that there's no shipping prices, and that they offer a full money back guarantee if you don't like their products.

Mahleewan

They say it's "handmade jewelry with cultural fusion"

I say look at all the pretty stuff!

Check out the Lushious Lip Polish.

I haven't seen that kind of tin since I was a little girl.

Blackberry and Pineapple Upside Down Cobbler...Candles

Don't these blackberry and pineapple upside down cobbler candles look delicious?

One day I'm going to buy some, lol :-)

I'm scared to buy candles now because I am afraid they will melt when we move.

But these look sooooo good.

A Planet 4 Creation

I found A Planet 4 Creation via the Happily Handmade Giveaway!

I got the most gorgeous pair of handmade sterling silver earings with 4 mm Sworovski crystals that flash violet in one light and blue in the other ... I know all of this because it was conveniently printed on the back of the card the earrings came on!

These earrings are absolutely adorable - unfortunately I have very sensitive ears, and I could not wear the earrings for more than an hour. Of course, that's normal for me, unfortunately.

So if anyone wants some beautiful earrings that were only worn once leave a comment -isn't that kind of gross though. Used earrings, what fun.

I really wish that I could wear the earrings - they were so beautiful. You would love them.

A Planet 4 Creation does have other great jewelry. The Heart Chain is absolutely adorable, as is the Hummingbird Necklace and Earring Set.

The earrings that I got came were wrapped in purple tissue paper, and lying in a beautiful purple box - a great way to present the earrings.

The company ships to the US and Canada, although you can email them for shipping rates if you're not in one of these countries.

Unfortunately they don't ship to APO or FPO boxes. Boo hoo.

Bead For Life

I read about Bead for Life in the May 2006 issue of Family Circle.

I was really impressed by the history of the organization, and by the beads themselves! Who would have imagined that so many different, beautiful things could be made by rolling up pages of magazines!

Although Bead for Life does sell products on the website, it also sells products through BeadWear parties, school fund raisers, and community fairs.

All profits from the sale go to the Kampala beading community, which actually makes the beads in Uganda.

Two Rivers Soap Company

Two Rivers Soap Company is a one woman show, based out of Des Moines, Iowa.

I received one of their Orange Papaya Sugar Scrubs in a gift basked that I won from the Happily Handmade Giveaway and I really liked it, although I did have some trouble with the jar.

You can read a full review of the Orange Papaya Sugar Scrub here.


Two Rivers does have some cool stuff. I like the looks of the Loofah foot soap, and of the Lemon Sugar Lip Balm. Yum, Yum.

If you're looking for something for your pet you can try the Sir Richard's Sham-pooch Bar.

Isn't Sir Richard adorable?

I do like Two Rivers Soap's shipping policy - as of today, the shipping is $5 for orders under $50, and orders over $50 are free!
