The Sweet Smell of KCEtsy

Who doesn't love a great smelling candle, or a fantastic bar of luxury soap or stepping into a soothing, hot bubble bath and then, covering your skin a light, sweet smelling lotion. Handmade bath and body products are the ultimate in self pampering. And these KCEtsy artists pride themselves in providing a top quality product - better than anything you can purchase in the stores - that is affordable AND organic - meaning is great for your skin and body as well as the enviornment. Can you get better than that?
