The Soap Box

A while ago I decided to get my creative hat on and make a few bath time delights for family and friends, after looking for inspiration on Not on the High Street and Pinterest I came up with a few ideas. I thought I would start with something nice and easy so I looked for recipes for bath salts. Bath Salts are great for pampering yourself and the magnesium sulphate helps to relax your muscles.
On the high street you can pay a ridiculous amount for such a simple to make product! I bought all my ingredients from eBay and each little jar works out very cheap! The one pictured is Lavender and Chamomile, Perfect for a bath before bed time! Once I made these I decided to move onto something else... Soap!! Making soap is so fun, you can play around with colours, scents and decorations, I made Rose, Lavender and Chamomile. These make lovely little gifts, its always nice to have something handmade.

Paris

Earlier this year I went to Paris for my Honeymoon. We had sun, snow and a little rain but nothing could have dampened our spirits! We stayed for six nights in a lovely boutique hotel right in the centre of Paris by the Notre-Dame called Hotel Atmospheres, it was so romantic. We wanted to fit lots in to our holiday so we busied ourselves with lots of art galleries, stunning scenery and adorable shops with all kinds of Parisian treats (yes, we ate ALOT of macaroons!)

We ate alot of everything for that matter, French food is gorgeous! My favourite moment had to be an evening boat ride along the river Seine, watching the sun go down with the backdrop of the Eiffel Tower. Here are a few of our photos, Enjoy!
