Okay, so here is what my contribution to the Handmade Holiday Idea Exchange over at FIMBY , will be... my Mothers Milk Soap from over on my Mothers Moon web-site

Handmade Holiday ideas

A fellow blogger (a more elequent and frequent blogger than I) came up with a wonderful idea for sharing handmade/homemade holiday ideas. Do you have something to share?

Please visit her blog FIMBY - Fun in My Backyard for more information, and perhaps some inspiration too!

Jewelry

Sunny day in Maine! Sorting through my handmade jewelry to possibly sell at some upcoming vendor events! Nursing necklaces, nursing bracelets... glass beads, wooden beads, clay beads, semi-precious stones... necklaces and earrings just for fun, a few anklets... Should maybe put a few things in my etsy shop as well!
