BESTeam feature : Lightkeeping

I'm so excited to finally be featuring Lightkeeping, a colorful jewelry shop on Etsy. The shop owner, Anastasija, lives in Cork, Ireland. I am part Irish and always wanted to visit this lovely green country. Lightkeeping is a beautiful shop full of lampwork & beaded jewelry and hair accessories. Each Lightkeeping piece of jewelry is lovingly made with great care and attention to color, proportion, symmetry, and most of all, beauty. Her prices are amazing too! She is a member of the Boosting Etsy Shops Team (BESTeam) as well as the European Street Team, Crafty Ireland Team, and Russian Artists. She is quite the busy bee!

Take a little tour with me through her shop....

Here are some of my favorites::

BESTeam Tuesday featuring Just the Goods

We've all heard the infamous saying, You are what you eat. At Just the Goods, you'll find skin care that says: You are what you wear...on your skin. With so many environmental worries in the world, organic, vegan, and natural skin care is what you want to use on your body. This Etsy seller based out of Winnipeg, Canada, offers handmade natural and affordable skin care.

Shaving solids, body butters, natural toothpaste, bath melts, and some facial skin care items are available in their Etsy shop right now. Most of Just the Goods items are made without animal-derived ingredients and striving toward a 100% vegan selection.

If you've read my "about me" blurb, you'll know my love of bath and body products! Here's a few on my wish list...




I forgot to mention they use re-usable canning jars with some of their products! Also their products are tested by friends not furry friends!! Loving that! So check out their shop today.
