Vote for dkM for the Naturally Beautiful Blog Award!
Time once again for a giveaway from the official dkMommy Spot store, The Giving Essence! What better way to eliminate stress and add relaxation to the home than to bring in some lavender? I’ve asked you all in the past for your feedback on your favorite herbs, and not surprisingly lavender has come out the big winner! So I’ve put together a little lavender duo for one lucky dkM reader: a 4 oz. bag of dried lavender buds and a 1-oz. bottle of lavender essential oil. This bag of lavender buds gives you enough to make a few sachets, perhaps pour some in a beautiful bowl in your living room, even brew some tea. The essential oil can be added to your wash load (just a few drops in the rinse cycle), a couple of drops in the bath for a relaxing soak, or for a deep sleep, place a little in your humidifier’s vaporizer reservoir.
Lavender has always been one of my favorites as well, so I’m happy to share some with you. Especially as this week sees so many milestones for dkMommy Spot: 3-year anniversary, 800th post, 76,000th comment, even being nominated for a Natural Beauty Blogger Award on The Body Shop’s blog. So help me celebrate!
