Etsy Shopping Spree Review

A couple of weeks ago I decided to spend some of my pay pal money on myself. I posted a alchemy request up on etsy. I had several bids (47 to be exact) All wonderful items But one sellers shop caught my eye. I love hold made soap and beauty products. I decided that I had found what I was looking for at Kupcake naturals. I received my My 15 dollar gift basket in the mail yesterday. I got to use all the items today.Here is what I got in my basket.




The face soap is Awesome it is made out of Bentonite Clay. I have naturally oily skin. I have tried tons of face products, But Kupcake Natural has done the trick. My face hasn't been oily all day. I would recommend this product to everyone who has oily skin.


This soap is delightful and yummy.No other words to describe it. I love the smell of it and it leaves my skin silky smooth.


For some reason this picture and the picture of the lip balm are small sorry about that.

I LOVE the sugar scrub.After taking a shower this morning.4 hours later I can still smell the Pink daiquiri scent on my scent!!!


The best lip balm I have bought on etsy.I love how she puts in a melts small container that can fit in your pocket or in a small pouch in my purse and still can get it out easily.

As you have read in this blog I am very pleased with my purchase and Definitely will be back to buy from this seller again. I would recommend her shop to anyone who loves soap.

The Most Awesome Birthday Ever!!!

Wednesday June 24th was my 23rd Birthday.My Husband I planned a little day trip to Indianapolis that day.We decided to visit the Indianapolis Museum of Art.This museum is the 5th Largest Art museum in the U.S. As soon as i walked in I was in a Daze. 3 huge floors Of paintings, sculptures, Fashion, and things I have never seen before and they had every artist you could think of. The coolest thing was you could take pictures of all the paintings etc. I got the most amazing pictures. As soon as we walked in to the first exhibit I saw for the fist time a Picasso , a Vincent Van Gogh ,Georgia O'Keeffe and a couple of Monet's. Never in my life I thought I would see some of the most Famous paintings by some of the most famous artists. After 3 hours of being mesmerized by all the beautiful works of art i did some shopping at the gift shop, got a really cool shirt, and a very cool book 1001 paintings you must see before you die by Stephen Farthing. One of the paintings i saw at the museum was in the book Georgia O'Keeffe Jimson weed painting. So i have 1000 paintings to go before i die. It looks like I'll have to take a couple of trips to Europe to get them all.
The museum set on several acres of Gardens which included a historical Lilly house. Everything in side was exactly the way it was when the original owner lived there. The Gardens around the house and museum had tons of sculptures and beautiful flowers.

Another plus for this museum for us was That everything was FREE!!! Yes I said FREE!!
Free parking, Free admission to the whole museum and Free admission to the ground and the Lilly house.SO If you ever take a trip to Indianapolis I give this place 5 stars!!!
