in the mail

When I posted about this washcloth I knitted, I mentioned that it just needed a bar of handmade soap to go with it, as soapmaking is something I've been wanting to learn how to do. I was very touched when Carrie ~ GiGi offered to send me one of her Under the Willow soaps.
I wish you could smell the beautifully packaged 'Richly Almond & Mango' bar that I received ~ it has such a wonderful scent! And, to top it off, she also sent a Mint Chocolate Puddle lip balm from her new Mud Puddle Girl line of products.
It smells good enough to eat!
Carrie has lots of great products including soaps for the kitchen & bath, linen sprays, lip balm, and gifts, and she has a wonderful blog as well ~ I highly recommend checking it out!

Thank you Carrie!!
