All About Butterbean


Kids' toys do not have to be "cutesy" or
complicated to be fun. Butterbean soft blocks are simple and stylish, making them a great toy for all ages of young children. Soft, squishable blocks in favorite colors are fun and safe at the same time!

Bold graphics, bright colors, sounds and textures all help babies develop their senses without overloading them with the bells and whistles of mass-produced toys.

I'm an art lover with a B.A. in fabric sculpture and design. I love modern designs in unique colors to create my soft baby blocks. Whether at play or at rest, they are pleasing to the eye!

Cinnamon Foot Scrubber Bar





A lightly fragrant vegetable-based glycerin bar with Mexican cinnamon and extra course sea salt makes for a fresh exfoliating idea for feet, especially heels. A combination softener and pumice-like bar in one! When the salt is gone, use as a normal bar of hand soap.

No dyes; color comes naturally from the cinnamon. Use warm water to expose salt quickly.

$5.00 per bar (includes shipping and handling).


To order, use the drop-down box in the righthand column. Any questions? E-mail me at: butterbeaninfo@gmail.com.

Aromatic Salt Scrub



A deliciously fresh-scented salt scrub for the feet or hands! Made with medium grain kosher sea salt, vegetable dyes (minimal), professional quality imported essential oils. 12 oz. of brightly, lightly colored salt scrub in a pretty little glass jar.

Available in six scents:

Tea Tree oil - a similar scent to eucalyptus

Lemon Verbena - spicy and lemony, uplifting


And featuring my original scent combinations:

Rosemary Vanilla - chic, cool and feminine

*Lavender Peppermint - relaxing
*Orange Basil - fresh and clean
*Anise and Lavender - sultry


Recommended: Use dime-sized amount for smoothing hands and/or feet, or dissolve 2 tbsp in warm water for relaxing foot soak. Essential oils and suspension oil will soften skin, especially feet. Not recommended for body scrub usage due to salt content.

$10.00 per 10 oz. glass jar (includes shipping and handling)

To order, simply send an e-mail to butterbeaninfo@gmail.com with your choice of scents. Please specify amount of each scent choice.

Shipping is first class mail to be determined by location and total weight of items purchased. All purchases will be combined into one package, of course!
