blog spa giveaway: take care of your feet

Don't miss out on our great Blog Spa giveaways and tutorials:
~a Basic Skin Care Set from Skin Journey
~a facial mask and headband
~a soothing prize pack from Barefoot Bath and Body
~a Fabulous Feet Set giveaway from the Abbey James Co.
~a personalized spa body wrap tutorial
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Let's talk about feet!

How much time do you spend on your feet each day?  Running errands, making meals, picking up toys, cleaning, walking around the office . . . yes, ladies we spend A LOT of time on our feet. 

So . . . we should be taking care of them.  Right?  Right! 

Of course, most of us don't have the time or the money to go to a salon or a spa for a pedicure, so we have to learn to take care of our own feet. 

And I'm so excited to introduce to you TWO shops . . . that's right TWO . . . that want to help us take care of our feet.

Lemongrass Spa
First up . . . Amber from Lemongrass Spa.  If you've never heard of Lemongrass Spa, you have got to check out this line of natural bath and body products.

You can pick up pretty much any bath and body product you want or need at Lemongrass Spa - shampoo, mineral make up, body polish and even products for the men in your life.

Here's just one of the many I would like to try . . . in my new soaker tub once I get to Texas! ;) 

 And I was just going to show one, but then I found this yummy looking cupcake bath bomb.  That thing goes in your bath not your mouth . . . much better for my thighs! 

Amber is giving away winner's choice of either a body polish or a foot scrub.  Go with the foot scrub ladies, and take care of those busy, tired feet!   


O. C. Styles
The second shop I'm loving and get to share with you is O. C. Styles!  I would buy one (or twenty) of every thing in this shop if I could.   This shop carries clutches, coffee sleeves, card holders, key holders, and multi-packs for bridal parties or mass gift giving.  And I love the patterns, the colors, the designs . . . I just love it!

Here are my two absolute favs:

 And the manicure/pedicure kit is ADORABLE!  I love the unique shape of this kit.


One winner . . . two products . . . to take care of your feet!

First entry:
~How much time do you think you spend on your feet each day?

Leave a comment for each extra entry:
~Be or become a twelve crafts follower . . . Follow if you want to stick around.  Follow if you like twelve crafts.  Follow if you are interested in this whole handmade gift idea . . . but please don't follow just for the giveaway and then unfollow.  There are other ways to enter this giveaway.
~Be or become a follower of the Flamingo Toes.
~Visit Amber's Lemongrass Spa shop and let me know your fav product.
~Would you choose the foot scrub or the body polish if you win?
~Visit O. C. Styles and let me know youf fav product.
~Heart your favorite product (add it to favorites).
~Heart the shop on Etsy (add it to favorites).

Oh . . . and I forgot to tell you all that these giveaways end on February 2 at 11:59 PM.  Winners will be announced February 3.
Blog Spa on!


Blog Spa is sponsored by these great shops:

Vanessa at Rescued Goods said...

So funny, I was going to say that I spend 30 seconds a day on my feet-I thought you meant how much time do you spend taking care of your feet-I take a shower and put on socks-that about covers it. Then I read some other comments and realized that you meant, well, not that! I guess I really spend more like 12ish hours a day on my feet. Chores, play, meals, volunteering, etc. Duh! Maybe I should spend more time on my mind!

Vanessa at Rescued Goods said...

I follow 12 Crafts too-thanks for the delish giveaways!
