December 4, 2009 65

Giveaway number twenty two is a fabulous item that would be a perfect stocking stuffer for any guy on your holiday list. It’s another great item from Vickerey, The Naturopathica Espresso Mud Scrub. {$48 Value} You can turn any day into a luxury spa day with this mud scrub. “The Naturopathica Espresso Mud Scrub has rich notes of coffee that will invigorate his senses and enhance his skin.” This scrub will gently exfoliate dead skin while sealing in moisture. Don’t you think your guy would enjoy a good scrub down with The Naturopathica Espresso Mud Scrub? How lovely to have a spa day at home, just the two of you, don’t you think?

I have talked about the Vickerey Naturopathica Shave Cream that Mr. Sweet Greens uses and loves and I think any item from the Vickerey Nautropathica collection would be a hit. Guys love a good organic clean just as much as us girls do, so pamper your guy with the Nautropathica Collection. He deserves it.

Nothing makes me happier than spending an entire day outside in nature. I would love to be able to snap a picture of everything I see each day as I am out and about. This is one of the reasons that I love this week’s Earth friendly Etsy shop Foto Macro.

Foto Macro is owned by a lovely vegetarian named Angie Lilly in Delaware, Ohio. Angie is a passionate environmentalist, she tries to always purchase local and organic foods, personal care and cleaning products, and avid animal lover. She currently has 9 kitties living with her and her life partner Scott. Angie is also a huge lover of gardening, birding – she has 13 bird feeders in her yard, art, music, and photography.

Angie is a lovely poet who poetry comes through in the pictures that she takes. You will be mesmerized by her up close and personal pictures of flowers, nature and my favorite, insects and bugs. You can tell when you see the pictures that she takes and read that descriptions that she writes, that she loves what she does. This makes the pictures that she takes, that much more beautiful. All of Angie’s prints come in a large selection of sizes and either glossy or luster finish. She also used Fujicolor Crystal Archive photography paper, which will last a lifetime if stored properly. Angie has been such a lovely to send me a beautiful up close photograph of an ant.

Angie has become a huge part of Sweet Greens, she is always so lovely to interact with on the Facebook Fan page and leaves excellent comments and suggestions in the comments section on Sweet Greens.
