Stacey Ogden's Homemade

In order to live a more simple and focused life with my family I have decided to stop making and selling my SOH products. I have a few items in stock to sell. You can also purchase the last of my products from Azure Standard online and Salt and Honey shop in Lufkin, TX. I will be updating my website stock of products soon.
I am sorry for the inconvenience.
I want to thank you ALL for your support these last few years. I am thankful for every experience I have had in running my small, handmade business.
Blessings! ❤️

You can find my products on the shelves at Salt and Honey’s shop in Lufkin every week Thursday through Saturday ❤️👏🏼

👐🏼I want to hear what your favorite thing is to make with your hands.
Besides making every one of my products by hand, I also enjoy crocheting, knitting and sewing ❤️
So comment below what yours is!
🖐🏽

One of my products has a secret use! Can you guess which one before swiping?

The secret use is it works great on bug bites!
And the product?!
It’s the detoxifying face and body mask 😄
Just prepare it like normal, mixing some powder in your hand with enough water to make a thin paste. Then apply it to the bite and leave it on for 30 min to an hour. Then gently wipe it off with a wet rag.
I hope you try this and please tell me how it works for you!

🗓It’s the last day of our love challenge! Today let’s show some love to a stranger. 👤
No matter what each of our lives are like, we all are so blessed. Bless a stranger by doing an unexpected gesture today. You can pay for someone’s coffee 💵, help a mom load groceries 🛒, shovel snow for someone ⛄️...the sky’s the limit! I hope you join in on this challenge today...it will give you the most amazing feeling at the same time ❤️

🌿The Bible tells us to be thankful. There’s always something to be thankful for and this attitude brings more positive feelings and joy to life.
🌿Every time I pray I like to start with thanking God for several things.
🌿What are 3 things you are thankful for today? ❤️

Day 11! 😅 Most of us crave junk food for a snack...I know I do! 🙋🏼‍♀️ So today I challenge you to eat a fruit 🍎 or vegetable 🥕instead of that junk 🍩. It’s a very conscious decision that I have to make at times, but it’s worth it and you will feel better, I know I do!
The best way to love yourself is to take care of your body. When you do that you can be more present for those around you. ❤️
You can do this! Take the challenge and get your life on track to living healthier.

🌿I’m gonna tell you about this customer favorite! The top seller is lemongrass spearmint, because they smell so fresh and clean. ✳️
They are fizzing toilet cleaning tablets. I don’t use any chemicals to make these...every ingredient is food grade so you can actually clean safely!🌱 BUT they aren’t just for cleaning the toilet, you can also drop one in the toilet before going number 2 😆 and it will help cover any smells and leave a nice scent behind! 👃🏼
I also use them to scrub my sinks and tubs clean with a scrub brush or wet rag.
Use them 1-3 times a week, which means one bag can last 4.5 - 14 weeks! 🗓

We are almost to the end of our love challenge. 💕
📝Today be very thoughtful and write an encouraging note to someone around you. Maybe it’s a stranger that you see could use a little pick me up, maybe it’s a loved one that you haven’t told how much you appreciate them and are proud of them.
✍🏼Find yourself at least one person to encourage today and write it for them. A note can be so special to go back to in rough times.
Ok, now go out there and love on someone with your words. 💌

This verse is such an important truth to remember.
💬Watch your words, your tone of voice and how you speak to others. Depending on how you speak and what you choose to say, your meaning and intention may be received completely wrong by the other person.
🗣Speak gentle, kind, peaceful and be very intentional with the words you use. Those words can increase love or bring hurt and division.
💝Communication is so important, no one can read our minds. So speak up, but wisely and lovingly.

Today is a simple challenge. Take a walk. Even walking a mile while shopping counts! But get out there and move those legs. Walk around the block, walk with your kids, spouse, pet, friend or just alone with God. And while you’re at it, maybe make it part of your weekly routine to walk a couple days a week.
It’s good for your blood flow and overall health. Who in your life wouldn’t want you to be healthier?! Love yourself and love others by being more present with health.

Want to know my favorite newest product that I make? This is it! I have used my shampoo for 10 years and have made a couple conditioners over the years that were just ok. But NOW I have the softest hair every time I wash! It has three super nourishing and hydrating oils for hair, A***n oil, apricot kernel oil and jojoba oil plus a few other vegan, gluten free and food grade ingredients.
I just towel dry my hair after my shower and shake this bottle up real good. Then I lightly spray the top of my hair and work my way spraying down to the ends. I carefully use a “wet brush” (a brush made for brushing wet hair) starting at the ends and working my way up to get all the knots out and the conditioner spread evenly through. I always let it air dry.
If love soft hair you will not be disappointed!
It works great as a detangler for curly hair too, as long as it’s used on damp hair. Use sparingly at first until you find out how much your hair needs. Some people’s hair need more oils than others.
I hope you give this one a try and tell me your experience with it 💞

Our next challenge is to find three things you don’t need anymore to donate. You can also decide to purchase items to give to the homeless in your area or to the food bank.
We all have more than we need. Let’s purge a little and think of others. Too much stuff can cause anxiety, stress and a cloudy mind. Love others and yourself with this challenge.

Don’t forget about drinking only water for a day 💦
Is it difficult to drink water? Add some fruit to it, cucumbers, lemon juice with stevia. Whatever you can do to get yourself to drink water.
It’s one of the best and simplest ways to love your body.

It’s day 7️⃣! We’ve been participating in these love 💕 challenges for a week now. How have you all been doing with them?
For the next day drink only water 💦 all day. It helps clear the body out and hydrate you. Add some lemon juice to make it even healthier, since lemon water helps to make your body more alkaline. Research an alkaline body and you will find a ton of info on the amazing health benefits from it. An extra piece of knowledge...sugar feeds disease...it makes the body acidic.
Love yourself by taking care of your body so you can continue to love others.

I love to knit and crochet but haven’t had much time for it these past few months. So, for yesterday’s love challenge I crocheted a pot holder with thick yarn that I ordered online just for this. 😁 I still have to finish it off, but it was nice to finally get to this quick and simple project ❤️

👏🏼 Another day means another challenge. It’s of our
Today love yourself. 💝
Make time to do something that YOU love doing.
Maybe you like to sit at home and read 📖 while drinking some tea ☕️ , maybe you like to play a sport 🏀 or do crafts 🎨...whatever it is make some time for yourself.
🗣Tell me your favorite thing to do in the comments below ⬇️

❄️ It’s that time of year where the cool temps result in dry, cracked lips and hands.
You won’t regret using my dry skin moisturizer. You can use it on your lips, face and whole body...even on squeaky hinges! I actually do! 😆
This moisturizer is the only lotion and lip balm I have used for 10 years 😅 I have received so many customer testimonials about how this jar of cream has done amazing things for them. Give it a try or put one in a stocking. 💞

Ready for the next challenge? Let’s find someone to compliment today. This is not a “I like your shoes” kind of a compliment it’s a deep, heart felt, encouraging compliment. Love someone else by lifting them up with your words and boosting their self confidence.

Here’s a little peek at the inside of Salt and Honey’s shop.
This picture does not do it justice!
Everything movable in the store is for sale including the shelving, furniture and things used to hold other items that are for sale. I just love it and no matter how many times you walk around you always find something you didn’t notice and have to have. 😍
AND You can find my products in the back on this cute shelf. 👏🏼
Thank you Deanna and Kim for bringing me into this amazing group of vendors in your store!

I was so busy today and forgot to post today’s challenge! Better late than never I guess 😏
It’s day 4 of the challenge and today let’s use less electricity. Turn lights off in rooms no one is in or that aren’t needed, set the heater to a lower temp...get creative and find ways to use less which saves you more money on bills 👏🏼 Which can also help pay for Christmas presents 😅
Please tell your friends about this love challenge which ends in 8 days and post what you participate in and be sure include and tag ❤️

Here’s my view while throwing a football and kicking a soccer ball with my kids today. Even our kitty cat wanted to be a part. It was a great time making memories. ❤️
What did you do while outside for 30 minutes today?

Love yourself and others today by spending 30 more minutes outside than normal and include someone with you. Play with your kids, look at nature with your spouse or friend...get creative and get outside...even in the cold. ❤️
I’m going outside with my kids now to kick a ball around and explore our backyard. ☺️

It’s Day 2! Today we will love the environment and our bodies by cleaning something without chemicals. A couple DIY ideas for you are to scrub a sink with baking soda and a damp rag or scrubber, or wipe mirrors and windows with a half and half vinegar and water mix.
Enjoy this DIY!

Find me and these gift boxes this Saturday at Salt and Honey in Lufkin from noon - 3pm. You can even create your own gift boxes! Hope to see you there!

Our first challenge is loving your body. Today choose at least one meal to eat no processed foods.
🌱🍎🍋🍠🍊🥦🍅🥕🥗
I had a salad today with oil and vinegar dressing that I made from scratch.
