Here comes one of our very favorite holidays of the year. The best part of being in this business is watching so many of our customers become mothers (and fathers). We love the chance to celebrate with you, whether this is your first mother's day or your fifty-first. To all the moms out there – have a great day.
If you're still looking for the perfect Mothers' Day gift for a new
mom in your life, stop by our stores, or click here for some recommendations. We have beautiful diaper bags,
yummy body lotions from Mustela and Mama Mio, and many other great
finds.
In honor of Mother's Day, we are pleased to be offering a special opportunity for our customers this weekend. Come and shop at Magic Beans, and you'll have the option to make a donation to Room to Grow, a wonderful organization dedicated to enriching the lives of babies born into poverty, throughout their critical first three years of development. We will match every dollar you donate with an in-kind donation of essential supplies for the babies in their program.
We're doing some spring cleaning in our toy department and we have lots of great products on sale. Mention this BeansTALK and take an additional 50% off any of the toys currently on sale, now through May 18, 2008.
If you're looking for a little pampering this Mother's Day, why not get your kids together and mix up this yummy sugar scrub? Then, once you're done, sneak away and give yourself a well-deserved pedicure.
What you'll need:
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup almond oil (or extra-virgin olive oil)
1 tsp vanilla extract (or your favorite essential oil)
1 tbsp honey
In a medium-size bowl, mix together the almond oil, vanilla extract and honey. Once combined, stir in the brown sugar. Store covered in a glass bowl or Tupperware.
