My good friend Reeda at .au took this beautiful photo today and I just love it! Vitalia is a small family business that stocks everything needed to detox your body & home. From books, ingredients, natural body and cleaning products, plus a wide range of herbal and aromatherapy products to low-tox dog and cat food plus animal healthcare. If you’ve got health goals and changes you’d like to make in the new year, Vitalia is a great one-stop shop. You can check out their website Vitalia.com.au or pop in on a Tues or Thurs if you’re local, they’re situated in Mount Crosby! Oh and they are also a big supporter of my small business too which makes me love them even more! 🙌🎉❤️

I’ve been thrilled with how well received these honey hampers have been. I’m down to my last final lot and am trying to decide whether to make them a permanent addition to my online shop as they really do make the perfect little gift for any time of the year.

We’ve had so much rain so far this week and I’m really hoping that it eases up soon as our animal shelters are very soggy! I’ve been so grateful for the extra online business recently as people are busy getting Christmas gifts. In a small business every order makes a difference and brings a smile. 🥹☺️❤️

Handmade soaps are made with simple ingredients that are pretty much all edible (apart from the lye that is responsible for turning the oils into soap) which means that anything that is absorbed into the skin is safe for the whole family. Skincare products are responsible for a huge number of hormone-disrupting chemicals being absorbed into the body. Using natural soap is a simple swap (shower gels often come with a long list of chemicals plus the additional plastic waste). My soaps have a paper sleeve that can be recycled and you’ll use every last bit of soap (I just stick the small piece of soap left over onto a new bar so nothing is wasted). 🙌♻️💝 link to my online shop is in my bio. www.riverbellcottage.com

My first Botanical Oils went out in the post today and it was a great feeling. If you’re looking for a special gift for a sister, mum or friend who loves natural products they will love this! One of my twins uses it to add shine to her hair and the other uses it as a cuticle oil. Knowing it has zero nasties in it gives me great peace of mind for the whole family to use. I’ll have to get Theo to try it out as a beard oil 😁🎄🎁.

A lovely customer came to my studio today for some Christmas gifts and I really liked her idea of pairing a soap with some bath salts. Affordable, eco-friendly and locally made! If you’re local and wanting some last minute presents just send me a message and I’d love to find the perfect gift for you!

I have waited over three months for this to arrive! My new and improved botanical face and body oil is packaged in a cardboard tube for safe posting and makes a great gift option too. It contains nourishing, cold-pressed organic fair trade peach oil and apricot oils sourced from a non for profit organisation in India supporting women to provide an income whilst staying at home with their families. It has skin-friendly organic jojoba oil, rich in vitamin e and known for its anti-inflammatory properties to help soothe inflamed or puffy skin. Scented with natural essential oils and infused with rose flowers and juniper berries and perfect for adding a touch of luxury to your daily routine.

For a limited time it’s available to purchase for $39.95. Link in my bio or here https://square.link/u/kAX8cyql for FB.

I poured the beeswax to wick test this jar and then realised I had forgotten to mix in some coconut oil. 🤦‍♀️ Beeswax is so hard it often cracks when poured into vessels so adding coconut oil helps prevent that, plus enables the candle to burn more evenly. Now I need to wait for it to set so I can remove it and start again! 😂🤪 Are there any experienced beeswax candlemakers who can offer some tips?? 🤔

I’ve spent a lot of time this past month trying to figure out the most efficient way of cleaning beeswax. It’s a messy process and I’ve had a lot of steep learning curves! I think I’ve almost got it now but as with all things, practice makes perfect. It would be awesome if these were real gold bars though. ☺️

I had a really great time at the markets last night, thanks to everyone who came and paid me a visit. I’m sorry I’m so bad with names and remembering where I know you from! I need to close a few brain tabs this Christmas. 🥴

I’ve been busy making some all natural, double-wicked large candles for a private order. They’re over twice the size of my normal candles and last a long time! Whilst I’m not currently shipping candles due to the insane QLD heat I am happy to send you a link if you’d like to purchase one to pick up from me in Bellbowrie. They make lovely gifts for friends who have sensitivities to synthetic fragrances and are made with a long burning sustainable olive oil wax. Standard candles are $30, large are $50.

An all time favourite, my lemon myrtle soap, peppered with dried organic lemon myrtle leaves, fragranced with pure essential oil, coloured with yellow clay and decorated with calendula petals. It’s a great choice for gifting to visitors as it captures the beauty of a classic Australian scent!
