  2. Love this idea…..have already ordered the lotion from Bath & Body. The best thing about your projects is that you also show or give an idea of what to put in them. Count me in as one that DEFINITELY appreciates that. You are my “go to” blog for handmade Stampin’ Up gifts. Thank you, Julie, for sharing your talents with us.
