Small Incentive to do the Dishes July 28, 2009

Picture 37

I was visiting Tyler Florence in Mill Valley the other day (If you live in the Bay Area definitely check this place out. It’s like a way more fun Williams Sonoma with super cute dishware, specialty foods and extensive cook book collection. The fact that I like this place says a lot considering I don’t really cook…)

Anyway, in addition to all the fun stuff listed above, they carry the Daub & Bauble collection, which includes surface cleaners, hand wash, dish detergent, candles and hand lotion in 4 amazing fragrances. My favorite is the Mission Fig & Thyme scent. I also love their packaging and you can purchase the kitchen & bath caddy to complete the whole look!

I definitely recommend treating yourself to this small luxury, you’ll find yourself actually wanting to do the dishes just to smell the soap!

A Rosy Idea June 17, 2009

Picture 24

 

When I was reading tabloids at the hair salon awhile ago, I came across a little blurb from Kelly Bensimon saying that she combines rose oil with water in a spray bottle and uses it as a perfume and home fragrance. Now to many of you this might not seem interesting and a little obvious, but I’ve been on the hunt for a good rose scent for months now. Unfortunately, everything I like costs a fortune (i.e. Une Rose) and most of the stuff I find has musk in it, which I hate. 

 

So, I gave it a shot and much to my chagrin (I’m a Team Bethenny girl all the way), it works pretty well! Just put a few drops of oil into the spray bottle, add water and shake (obviously the oil doesn’t really mix, but it still scents the water) and voila! You have a nice body splash and home fragrance! Er, thanks Kelly… just some advice, you might want to lay off the drugs before filming… just sayin’.

This is a little last minute, but I just wanted to give a heads up that DL & Co. is having a sale on Gilt Groupe today. There are still a few items left and they’re a great deal at about 50% off. As you know I’m a huge fan (checkout my D.L. & C0 post here or my Gilt Groupe post here). They are expensive so I would definitely try to take advantage of the discount for the remainder of the day!
