Lavender Festival at Chappell Hill Lavender Farm

This year the annual Lavender and Wine Festival is August 13, 2011 at the Chappell Hill Lavender Farm!  Lots to see and do - lots of vendors selling unique handmade items.  Also check out the farm's gift shop - plenty of items there, too! Tucker Hill will have a booth there offering all kinds of bath, body and home fragrance goodies.  The lavender farm is in Brenham just off Route 1155.  Check out the farm's website at chappellhilllavender.com.  The farm is about an hour drive from Houston - just go out 290 west - turn right on 1155 at the Chappell Hill stop light (you can't miss it - it's the first stop light on 290 from Houston and there is a Rustler's at the corner with a Burger King).  Stay on 1155 until it ends - turn right - drive about 2 miles and turn left on Dillard Road.  The farm is down a few hundred yards on the right.  There will be signs directing you - you won't get lost!  We would love to see you there!

Etsy Out Of The Box Sampler Team

Trying to stay busy!  I joined the Out Of The Box Sampler Team on Etsy!  People can order sample boxes of products and creators like me can send out samples to the Sampler Team for distribution to people who order these sampler boxes!  Cool way to get my name out there, and hopefully people will like my products!  I have been busy creating a new look for my products.  Working on labels or, rather, they are working on me!  Always a challenge to get these to look right.  What do you think?

Sugar Scrubs - How Sweet! Naturally!

Hi!  Welcome to our blog. Let me tell you about sugar scrubs.  Yes, they are sweet, but not to eat!  They exfoliate your skin and moisturize at the same time, when you bathe or shower.  We make sugar scrubs instead of salt scrubs because salt can irritate the skin and any nicks or scrapes you may have.  We formulate our scrubs with natural products for people with dry skin who want moisturizing as well as people with normal skin who just want to exfoliate.  Exfoliation removes the top layer of skin cells, renewing the skin beneath, making it much softer.  Your skin will thank you!  Instead of scoopable, messy scrubs, we make these scrubs in the form of cubes or balls.  That makes these scrubs very portable - you can take them with you on a trip with no fear of a leaky mess.  These scrubs contain soap and can be used in place of gardener's or mechanic's soap.  We offer these scrubs in many scents, including mandarin orange, hazelnut coffee, sugar crush (like pink sugar), tahitian grapefruit, fuzzy peach, and more.  We offer Sugar Scrub Cubes and our so cute SugarDust Sugar Scrub.  Both types are pictured below.  Please visit our etsy shop at tuckerhilltx.etsy.com.
