Yesterday I shared my own craftiness but today I would love to showcase another wonderful crafter!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This is part of a series that is being shared by Joanna from <a href="http://jojobean26.blogspot.com/">JoJoBean26</a></div>

I<span style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;"> am pleased to introduce you to Cynthia Lynch of <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/cynthiassoapkitchen" style="color: #888888; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Cynthia's Soap Kitchen</a>, with whom I had the joy of hanging out this summer at the Oakland Farmer's Market. She makes beautiful cold process soaps, skinny lotion, aromatherapy blends, and even an all natural insect repellent that I snatched up for Jude this year. None of the other natural products I tried worked for us, but he was bite free all through late August and September thanks to Cynthia's Bug Bane. I loved having a booth next to Cynthia at the market this summer, because the breeze would blow through our tents, carrying the scents of her soaps with it. Instant aromatherapy boost!</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;">I make natural, organic bar and liquid soaps with pure essential oils. The inspiration for the soaps comes from the best lesson I learned as a professional cook: keep it simple and use the best ingredients available. It makes for the best, healthiest product you can get.</span></div>
<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;">If I could change one thing with my business, I would love to see people get away from using bath products with toxic ingredients. I believe we can all be a lot healthier with a few minor changes to our daily routines.</span></div>

<div style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Trebuchet, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;">It goes back to cooking. Making soap is so similar--creating a recipe, measuring ingredients, cooking it properly--it was just a natural choice. Along the way I've fallen in love with the essential oils that I use, which is now leading me into perfumery as well.</span></div>

<span style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;">That's easy: my favorite part is making the soaps, and inventing new ones. The biggest challenge is getting the word out. There just aren't enough hours in the day!</span></div>

<span style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;"><b>What is the best gift in your shop? Who is it for?</b> (Feel free to add a few, ie: The best gift for gardeners is this amazing hand cream because… The best gift for a baby is this burp cloth set because…) I've got soaps for quite a few tastes.</span><span style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;">Any of my organic soaps are the best hostess or teacher gift because they're both beautiful and useful. The best gift for the beer lover is either my Organic Beer or Organic Stout soap--they'll soon learn that beer is amazing for your skin too! The best gift for someone you want to pamper would be a combination of my Organic Lavender Soap and Liquid Soap in Lavender Grapefruit because the scents are just so soothing and uplifting.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I'm excited to share one of the best shopping events of the season: Yellow Friday, hosted by <a href="http://www.thechirpingmoms.com/" target="_blank">The Chirping Moms! </a></span></center>
<center>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></center>
<center>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Yellow Friday is a weekend long shopping event FULL of great deals. <a href="http://www.thechirpingmoms.com/" target="_blank">The Chirping Moms</a> got together 35 fabulous places to shop online & all of them are offering big discounts for their event. A lot of the stores are also offering items in a GIANT giveaway. That's happening <a href="http://www.thechirpingmoms.com/" target="_blank">over on their site</a>, so be sure to go enter! </span></center>
<center>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></center>
<center>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Why wait for Black Friday when you can shop all of these wonderful small businesses now? This is a chance to sit back, relax & get your holiday shopping done from the comfort of your own home. It's easy to shop the deals, because all 35 stores are using the same coupon code: chirpholiday</span></center>
<center>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></center>
<center>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Below you will find each company/ Etsy shop participating, an idea of what they sell & what their Yellow Friday deal is. Just click on the store name & it will take you right over to their site to shop. ALL of the stores are using code: chirpholiday (unless a different code is noted)</span></center>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></center>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">It changed the whole look of my plain old vase!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">My original plan was to take my vase, paint it and Mod Podge snowflakes on with coffee filters.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Yup.. the punches got crammed up with the coffee filters and it just wouldn't work.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">So I took my vase and painted it with blue glass paint</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">It's something that we have used our whole lives and probably NEVER given much thought to.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">As little kids we used it for licking off the batter, as teenagers it became a valuable weapon against our siblings and as grownups it became an unparalleled cooking tool!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Wooden spoons are special to me as they bring back fond memories of my days as a newlywed. When my hubby and I got married at 22 I had never been domesticated... I couldn't clean and I certainly couldn't cook. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Laundry was MY specialty. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">But as it had been agreed upon when we met that I would be a stay at home mom.. I NEEDED to learn to cook. So we spent our weekends at home while my hubby would give me cooking lessons. I always used a wooden spoon to cook with and my hubby would scoop some of whatever delicious meal we were creating and tenderly share it with me. I can still picture him, younger of course, (we've been married for 12 years) with the spoon in one hand and the other underneath so as not to spill.. blowing gently to cool it off for me.. sigh. It was such an encouraging moment for me.. to see that I COULD cook and have it taste amazing! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">My first conquest of course was tomato sauce with Tuttorosso tomatoes which I couldn't live without!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
