Sponsor Spotlight :: Jenuinely Pure

I'm excited to share this product with you.  I was able to try out Jenuinely Pure's bar soaps and just love them!  You probably already know how much I love natural homemade soaps made with pure & natural ingredients.  Jenuinely Pure soaps are exactly that!


I tried both the vanilla bean and pink grapefruit scents & I love them both!  The scent isn't overly powerful but gentle & wonderful.  I've never been one to like strong scents and perfume-y smells, these soaps have just the perfect amount of scents!  My husband likes them too!

They lather really well and leave your hands feeling moisturized yet clean!  They don't leave your hands dried out and are made from pure ingredients.

Pink Grapefruit: Distilled water, saponified oils of olea europaea (olive), organic cocos nucifera (coconut) and organic elaeis guineensis (palm fruit),confectioner’s sugar, ground paprika, citrus paradise (grapefruit) essential oil

~ Modesty4Me.com Cami Review ~



Modesty4Me is a small online business providing women with modest camis, practical modest everyday t-shirts and dresses.

About Modesty4Me:

Hello, my name is Cindy Fowler, founder and CEO of Modesty 4 Me. I started Modesty 4 Me because I saw a need for a basic wardrobe component that would allow women to dress modestly. You can buy skirts, shirts and jackets most anywhere; but what do you do about the neck line? My daughter-in-law often wears regular camisoles and she tightens the straps so much to raise the front that it rubs under her arms. Also you lose the layering look because the center front is pulled up distorting the shape of the garment. She even wears some shirts backwards. One day she said to me, "Nana, can't you make me a camisole that is cut higher in the neckline?"
From that simple request, Modesty 4 Me was born. After months of research I am very happy to introduce my line of high neck camisoles. More colors and styles will be available in the future, but as everyone says "Ya gotta start somewhere."



I was sent a white basic cami for review and love it!  I wear it all the time (it even stretches nicely to go over my baby bump.:-)).  It's nice and long unlike most cami's and tank tops nowadays - but not too long.  The high neck is perfect and very modest.  All of their products are made in the US and not China.

If you've been looking for a modest cami for under those shirts that are too low cut but still nice, this is the perfect option and it's just perfect timing too!  Modesty4Me is having an Inventory Clearance Sale right now.  Cindy (the owner) is going to be modifying/redesigning her camis and dresses to become even more modest.  Right now you can purchase the Basic Camis for $11.99 - $12.99, Layered Camis $9.99 - $12.99 & Lace Camis for $14.99 (sale prices).  They also sell t-shirts and dresses.

** Disclaimer: I was sent 1 cami from Modesy4Me for review purposes only.  All opinions express here are 100% honestly my own.  Thank you!

We will never stock a non-organic item if an organic one is available, nor will we offer our customers material which has been conventionally grown using synthetic substances. In the event that certified organic material is not available, we opt for material which was cultivated without chemicals or harvested in the wild, thus liberating ourselves from commercial farming dependencies, and all of these materials have been meticulously analyzed in the lab for both chemical and pesticide residues.
I'm impressed with their loyalty to organic and natural wild harvested products!

I was sent a sample of their Immune Care Extract and their Echinacea & Roots tea.  Both are great!  The tea is good with a little honey.  The Immune Care Extract is easy to take by adding the recommended dosage to water or juice and drinking.  Both of these are great at immune building! :)  With the arrival of our baby drawing close keeping our immune systems strong and staying healthy are on the top of my list!

Getting Ready for Baby - Crochet Baby Hats {Pink & White}

I'm so excited about having our second baby in March!  In preparation to having a new little one soon I've been making baby hats.  I love to crochet and these are so easy and fast!  They will be perfect for keeping our little one's head nice and warm during these chilly wintery days

As we don't know our baby's gender I'm going to be making both girl and boy ones. :-)  I know several other women pregnant and due after me so I can give the extra hats away or keep them for a future baby (Lord willing)!




First I made this one - I used this easy tutorial and added a little bow.

 This one I made with the same tutorial as above.


This one is preemie but it probably will fit as we're thinking this baby is going to by tiny like our first.  I used this tutorial.  This is the same yarn as the first one but looks different due to lighting. :)

 {Same hat as above just different view}

Now I'm planning on making some boy colored hats (brown, blue, green) after I can get into town and get some new yarn.  I already had these yarns on hand so I made them first. :)

I found several other really cute hat patterns that you can see here I hope to make someday! :)
