I just finished the second round of sample bags for donation to Fresh Start Women’s Foundation through AZ Spa Girl’s Summer Spaaah Series (three left to go!).  This is what my box full of 200 green organza bags filled with our Cocoa/Lime Hemp Lip Balms and sample size Tangerine Creamsicle Body Butters looked like before we shipped it out.  Temperatures reached 110 degrees yesterday (the day they were scheduled to arrive in Scottsdale), so we made a trip to Lowe’s over the weekend and bought some mylar bubble wrap to protect the lip balms and body butters from the heat during shipment.  They were a lot of work to make — I hope they made it there o.k.!

This week’s AZ Spa Girls’ event is on Friday night, July 2nd at Dolce Salon & Spa at the Borgata, Scottsdale.
