Dress for Birdy's Baby

This is the cutest little doll dress from Like Mama - Like Daughter : Crafting Along With a Needle and Thread.  Blogger Hannah White is the creator of this adorable birdy doll dress.  Take a look at her blog, I think that you will enjoy it.

  Our next blogger posted a wonderful recipe for Watermelon Mint Lemonade from The Healthy Beehive.  Jane is the blogger and let me tell you I loved reading this recipe.  I am certainly going to make this, I even bought the lemons and watermelon.  Hopefully, I will get to it this afternoon.  Take a look at Jane's blog and see what else she has to offer.

Oil Cleansing Method from Natural Living Momma

This next blog offers wonderful tips on natural cleansing with her post on Oil Cleansing Method - Natural Living Momma.  Amanda is the blogger for Natural Living Momma, and I love this cleansing method.  I normally just use oil to remove waterproof makeup, but she certainly makes a point for using it all of the time.  Take a look at her blog and see what other tips she has to offer.

Bear Rabbit Crafts - Are Your Eggs Bad?

I absolutely loved this last post called Are Your Eggs Bad? by Bear Rabbit Bear Crafts.  This is the most informative post about checking on whether your eggs are fresh or not.  It made me laugh, and I have since told everyone how you check to make sure that your eggs are fresh.  This is a great one, check out Melanie's blog, and take a look for yourself.


Now onto my post for the day.  It is a Jasmine Scented Oil that I use in place of perfume.  I hope that you like it as much as I do.

Jasmine Scented Oil (replacement for perfume)

I was really excited to start making scented oils.  I am severely allergic to perfume, and when I started making my own beauty products this was something I was really excited to try.


I love the smell of Jasmine, actually I love the smell of Star Jasmine.  In all of my research I found that Star Jasmine is not actually Jasmine, but I did find a Now Jasmine Fragrance which is close in smell to my Star Jasmine that are blooming in the pots in front of my house.  The great thing is that I am not allergic to this form of essential oil.  So I tried using it to make a Jasmine Scented Oil and it smells fabulous.  I love it.  I have tried Jasmine Absolute, the grandflora, but I do not love this smell as much.  I have not yet found a Jasmine Sambac, so if you have that essential oil you could give it a try. 

I use jojoba oil because it is absorbed by your skin better then some other oils, so it will not leave you feeling oily.

Now I know this is really hard, but I think all of you will be able to manage, since there are only two ingredients in this recipe.

Jasmine Scented Oil

2 oz jojoba oil
40 drops Now Jasmine Fragrance oil

Put the oil in a small bottle with a dropper lid.  Add the essential oil, put the lid on and shake.

That's it you are done.  Put it at your wrists and behind your ears, and you are set to go.

Please send me comments about how you like this scented oil.  I would love to hear what you think.

Enjoy!!!
