Blending up a personalised perfume and lip balm. Smells divine!

Having had the landlord round with the weedkiller and been told to cut the grass, I am going to be work on building a wildflower container garden. I love the idea of forest gardening so will be planting up wildflowers, herbs, edibles etc......I have a vision in mind so fingers crossed it works! The ginger, beetroot and spring onions are growing well. I have cosmos coming up and 3 pots of wildflowers at the moment at different stages.

Experimenting with growing ginger at home! Should be interesting. Fingers crossed it works.

I've been creating a shower gel using Frankincense as a base. Frankincense can help create a feeling of peace, relaxation and wellness as well as strengthening and toning the skin. Perfect for this time of year

Working on an idea for a new shampoo/conditioner. Here's the inspiration

made up some Cottage Garden skincare products the other day - just love the smell they create!

The sun is shining and we may not be able to venture out into nature but do you have any of these wildflowers in your garden or nearby?

mmmmmm - decadent choclotae body scrub. Love making these scrubs :)

Cottage garden toner made up for regular customer. Lovely smells in the kitchen :)

Trialling a new home remedy today using the oils of Frankincense and Cinnamon

Packing up some bits for moving and unpacking others from storage makes me think I may need to start making some products up......muscle relief first I think!

Testing out a new recipe today for natural deodorant - should be interesting in this weather! Good test though :)

How can you not be inspired when your morning walk looks like this? Thinking I might make myself a sea themed body scrub

Plenty of natural ingredients can be used in scrubs and natural skincare products. I use sea salt, seeds, sugar to name a few

No more microbeads in UK manufactured personal care products Manufacturers of cosmetics and personal care products will no longer be able to add tiny pieces of plastic known as ‘microbeads’ to rinse-off products such as face scrubs, toothpastes and shower gels.

The Home Herb Company updated their website address.

Been mixing up cleansers, toners and face scrubs today - smells so yum!

Mini moisturisers all boxed up and ready to go on a book tour :)

Working on 100 pots of midnight garden moisturiser to go in goodie bags for book tour!

I'm addicted to the new whipped Shea & Babassu body butter

Such a damp, grey afternoon. So glad I made extra chocolate body scrub and luxury whipped body butter . A pamper evening awaits :)

Making Cottage Garden moisturisr & whipping up a luxurious body butter today - smelling divine

Usually wouldn't use the under eye refresher in the morning but today just calls for it!

summer berry face scrub, and two cleansers cooling down ready for labelling and dispatch :)

Thank you to all my customers. We are taking a break until January and have lots of new ideas to try out in 2016. Merry Christmas :)

The new jars are in, new products for Christmas.....argan body oil, frankincense moisturiser and myrrh toner. :)

Time to order some more jars for the fairs coming up. Deciding on what colour for the new Frankincense and myrrh ranges

All labelled up and ready to go :)

Been working on a few orders this week, just labelling and boxing up left to do. Then another two orders come in :)
