There is something about hammered gold or silver that just draws us in.  It’s likely the fact that light is always reflecting off of it, no matter what angle it’s coming from!  Jill from Grey Goose Gifts always creates the most wonderful hammered handmade jewelry, and this piece is no different.  It’s a surprise subscriber favorite!

Handmade Vino Rosso Soap surprise

One of our gorgeous November items that our lucky subscribers received last month is this aromatic Handmade Vino Rosso Soap from Piccolo Paradiso.  Inspired by the Tuscan Vineyards, and even infused with imported Italian grape seed oil and scented with merlot and berries, this artisan red wine soap was a definite winner among our subscribers.  In fact, November was so popular at fair ivy that Piccolo Paradiso ran out of this soap and sent a unique White Wine soap to the remainder of our customers—so each package was a surprise not just to our customers but to us as well!

And the fantastic way it was packaged sent us through the roof!  It has got to be one of the more cute gift wrapping ideas that I’ve seen from our vendors here at fair ivy. Are those eucalyptus leaves?  And a hand-stamped box with Handmade on it—love it!
