This past weekend I was blest to be the recipient of a spa treatment care of
Scrubbing Bubbles. Holly invited me to join them at the Four Seasons!
Boy, was I spoiled!
I had never had a facial before.
I loved having no kids for three hours part, lots of uninterrupted adult conversation and the peaceful setting!
My favorite part however was the facial and the nifty mask I got to wear. The heavy feeling on my eyes made me so sleepy (either that or my preschooler who woke me up in the night) irregardless, I set out to make my own!

I made my template with a sippy cup to make the eye size, then bridged the eyes together.
I used this template as a pattern and using some leftover satin, we cut our eye masks out of the fabric. I used the smaller side of the cup to make an identical mini-mask for my daughter.
I then sewed the mask pieces together, good size facing in, leaving a two inch gap at the top so that I could turn it right-side out and stuff the mask.
After sewing the pieces together I cut tiny slits around the sides of the mask. These helped the seam be even after it was turned right-side out.
We then stuffed the mask (with rice) and sewed the top closed.
Doused the mask with a few drops of
lavender essential oils and viola – relaxation!
New to Essential Oils?
Ha! Me too…
awhile ago.
It can be overwhelming with so many oils & choices.
This
exclusive package {available for a limited time} gives you everything you need to get started and the information you need to know what to do!
As a Young Living Independent distributor, I started with their
AMAZING starter kit & then added a few things I thought you might like…
…like a super huge essential oil information manual. I use mine ALL THE TIME. It is a place you can look up information about each oil individually or find information by looking up the problem you want to solve.
…like an Amazon gift card for $20! You can use it for additional resources or accessories OR just whatever you want!
…like membership in our group’s private FB community. This is a great place to ask questions, get suggestions and find out how other people are using their essential oils. As part of my team, you can also choose other groups like our business building or blogging communities as well.
Check out this article for more information about how to get this essential oil deal from Kids Activities Blog.

Thanks for a very informative web site. Where else could I get that kind of information written in such an ideal way? I have a undertaking that I am simply now running on, and I have been at the look out for such information.
BTW…I tried grabbing your button, but it wouldn’t show up in my sidebar…is it an issue with my WP blog? Do you know of any other WP sites that have your button? Just curious.

What an awesome idea! I have three girls, and they have their own ‘spa days’. My middle daughter runs it. She has a name for her ‘spa’, and offers lunch, a facial, a back massage, manicure, pedicure (including a foot soak), and even has the soft music playing in the background. She found a recipe online and made her own homemade lip gloss, which she promotes to her customers, of course. At 10 yrs. old, she’s really got it goin’ on! You should smell her room when they’re done! Wait until I tell her about this mask… We’ll be making them for sure! Love your site, btw…saw you in a forum in the SITS community!

This is a cool idea. This really would make good gifts as well.

Awesome! Never thought of spa-like treatment of a toddler to induce sleep…you might be a genius.
So glad you could come! It was great to meet you in person.
