Everyday Handmade: Bath Time

Hello there! It's Nicole from Blue Bicicletta! I'm starting a new series of blog posts here on the Artisans Gallery Team blog called Everyday Handmade. I think that one of the most wonderful things about Etsy is the opportunity to connect with the makers of so many beautiful handmade things. While people are starting to think of Etsy for gifts and such, wouldn't it be wonderful if everyone also thought of it as an alternative way to get everyday items?

I personally have been trying to remind myself of this, and I would like to make this series of posts about showcasing wonderful everyday items from our talented Artisan Gallery Team! So, I'll be picking a theme each week and going on a mission to discover the amazing options for infusing the everyday with beautiful handmade lovelies.

This week, I'm doing a round up for that most relaxing and refreshing part of your day: bath time {or shower time, if you will}. Wouldn't it be wonderful to bring a little more handmade feel into your bath time? Here are some sweet and scented items that will do just that.



Check out A Breath of French Air for some beautiful scented Organic Body washes. Think Almond Vanilla, Eucalyptus Mint, Brown Sugar Fig. She also offers bar soaps, scrubs, lib balms and a whole slew of other all natural, body products. {find this body wash in her soap section}.



Pick up a crochet bath puff from Monika Design to help lather up. She also makes wash cloths {among many other very beautiful crochet items for the home}. Find all of her bath items here.



Then head on over to Sweet Sally's Soaps to infuse your bathtub with sweet scents with her lavender and chamomile bath bombs, or one of her handmade organic soaps, scrubs, or salts. She even has a soap of the month club!



For a little touch of extra whimsy and elegance, there is Satin and Birch. How about this divine Shea Butter Bath Bar in Lily of the Valley!? I can't imagine a better way to end a Sunday evening than with one of these gorgeous soaps! (find this one pictured here in her Special Bath Bars shop section).

Happy sweet bath time to you all!
