Easy Christmas Shopping.
That is my number one wish for Christmas – besides having all of the kids around and being able to see my sister and nephews/nieces and the rest of the family. So far so good on that one, they aren’t old enough to escape yet.
So I was really happy when the good old Regal catalogue was revived.
I’ve always been a big fan of Regal Greetings and Gifts and have bought and sold from their catalogue for almost as long as I can remember since I’ve had a family.
They are a Canadian company that closed for awhile and now have come back better than ever. I especially like their new web capabilities, you can order and ship directly from your computer! That’s my kind of shopping!
I’ve set up my web store, all you need to do is go there, select what you want and choose direct ship. I will let you know if there is anything on backorder and Regal will ship it directly to your address.
That’s the way I like to do my Christmas shopping, let me tell you!
I love REGAL because they are reasonably priced and have really unique items. I still have so many kitchen gadgets that I actually use from years ago in my kitchen, I was truly happy when they reopened and came back even better.
Here’s the link if you want to make Christmas a snap this year. Go to the ’shop’ link to find product details and direct order links. You can see ship info at the ‘my story’ link.

SOAP MAKING STUFF TOO!
I’ve ordered a few things also that I’m looking forward to use in making soap – they have a double boiler pot that is a one piece unit – I am looking forward to that because I don’t like the condensation that often collects in my old double boiler system – a metal mixing bowl over a pot :0)
I’ve also ordered an oven mat that I am going to cut to make some reusable soap mold liners and various Christmas tags (some of these will make nice little thank you cards for your soap customers) and stickers to use on my Christmas soaps.
I’ll keep you posted on those when they come in, meantime check them out for yourself if you are looking for something nice, economical and a little different.
I came across this article that I thought was really interesting.
I am not recommending the products in particular, I know nothing about them, but I think that the information in the article is great if you workout or if you sell your own products you may be able to put an all natural ‘after exercise’ line together.
I’d like to work on this myself as I’ve been a member at Club Fit Yummy Mummy for 2 years now (we’re doing a preholiday challenge right now to be prepared for the fun over the holidays) and I love it. I find it to be quick, effective and the support there is amazing.
I usually have my shower before my workout to energize me, warm up my muscles and to open my pores. Then I have a quick shower after to rinse off all of the sweat and I have often thought how skin is in prime condition after a workout for good, natural skin care since it’s warm and the pores are clean and open (for excellent absorption of what ever we use – on the flip side – it’s also prime time for absorbing toxins into our systems through our skin through skin care that contains who know what.
So, here’s the article, I’d love to hear if you have any suggestions or if you have a skin care routine that you use after you exercise.
Skin Care Routine After Exercise
Just a reminder that Christmas is coming!
It doesn’t quite feel like it yet although I am already thinking Christmas decorations and theme for this year.
If you’re hankering to make some nice homemade natural skin care Christmas gifts and need some recipes, packaging ideas and a bunch of Christmas crafts, recipes and activity ideas that you can do with your family (or without :0) have a look at my Make It Special Christmas Collection.
It’s an instant download so you don’t need to wait, you can jump right in.
It also lists suppliers and has a section with some very nice contributions from some of them.
I was tickled to receive this from Barb, who was happy to receive hers – thanks Barb!

BTW, YOU CAN MAKE SOME MONEY BY HELPING OTHERS TO MAKE IT SPECIAL TOO!
I’m very excited about an affiliate program that I am working on for the Make It Special Christmas Collection.
That means that you can sign up for free and put your own link, picture and information on your website and make $5 from every sale.
If you don’t have a website, you can still participate through email, or even put it in pamphlets etc if you do shows or know someone down the road who might like it :0)
This means that you can help others to make it easier to make Christmas homemade – and special – this year.
In times like these, with the unsteady economy and the environment getting more obviously in need of attention and responsibility with every passing year, it only makes good sense – and a great Christmas too!
