I'm off to work shortly, but wanted to share some purchases I made this past weekend. I love a good deal and am always looking for bargains. So off to my local Ross store I went - prepared to face brutal parking and crowds this time of year. I was pleasantly surprised to find neither (I must have gone at the right time!). My aim was to find soap to go with the washcloths I've been making as gifts. Oh my, I wasn't disappointed...

| Handmade and triple-milled soap made in Italy |
 |
| Sweet-scented rose and lavender |
 |
| The loveliest vintage-y packaging |
 |
| And the best part was the bargain: nothing above $8.00 (and that was for a box of 12) |
My photos don't do these soaps justice, I'm still working on my photography skills and will get the lighting right one of these days...
Make your day a beautiful one :-)
They are gorgeous and will make your gifts extra special --- Isn't it lovely when a plwn comes together
