#Phantom is Coming! Win Phantom Necklace from Rock and Roll Alice Designs

Alice in Wonderland has always been one of my favorite books. Just like Phantom, it has been told and retold a thousand different ways, and each new addition still leaves you filled with wonder. Rock and Roll Alice Designs loves the Disney version of Alice in Wonderland, and it has inspired many of their beautiful jewelry designs.  My favorite is definitely the Queen of Hearts Necklace. But there are lots of other fun styles to choose from in this rockin' Etsy shop as well. Get a pair of retro Barbie earrings or a a little something featuring the characters from the Nightmare before Christmas. With Rock and Roll Alice Designs, the options are almost limitless and they ship worldwide.

The piece that immediately caught my eye in this shop was, of course, The Phantom of the Opera necklace. The necklace features a portrait style photo of Lon Chaney from the very first movie version of Phantom. It was a silent movie from back in 1925, and its definitely a classic monster flick. The picture is surrounded by a silver tone frame and black and white roses. You couldn't ask for a more Phantom worthy design.

#Phantom is Coming! Win a Prize Pack from Illuminarium Bath Shop

I don't often find a free moment to indulge, but when I do, the two things I love the most are warm baths and a few tasty treats to enjoy with a cup of tea afterwards.  Its not often you come across a shop that offers both, but Illuminarium Bath Shop does just that. They make homemade cookies and caramels using organic ingredients, as well as delightful bath and body products that will make you feel like a princess.

Last month, I received a box of things to try out from The Sampler Box, which is a company that brings together some of the best that Etsy has to offer. Among the samples, was the Vivien Leigh/ Scarlett O'Hara Sparkling Bath Salts from Illunimarium Bath Shop. This is a blend of bath salts like no other. It will really make  you feel like you have been transported to magical land. Its scented with
Absinthe, Sweet Grass, Vanilla, Bergamot, and Peppermint, and the combination is intoxicating. There are made with real essential oils and flowered herbs. But there were two things that made these bath salts truly unique.  They add a small amount of coloring so that the water turns a beautiful shade of emerald queen, emulating the color of Scarlet's classic gown in Gone with the Wind. Finally, there is a sprinkling of glitter which makes the water sparkle like diamonds. Together, it all provides an   exotic bathing experience that anyone is sure to enjoy.

To help celebrate the release of Phantom, one lucky winner is going to receive a prize pack from Illuminarium Bath Shop which includes all of the following:

1 bag of Vivien Leigh Sparkling Bath Salts (good for 4-6 uses)

#Phantom is Coming! Win a Phantom Keychain & Sticker from Custom Celeb Keychains

My husband has a Ron Paul Revolution sticker on his car so everyone knows right off what his political views are. At Custom Celeb Keychains, you can let the world know what actors and musicians you're rooting for. They have dozens to choose from, but I think my two favorites are Betty White and Bruce Campbell.

And when it comes to romance, Crafts By Sandi: The Enchanted Garden brings you everything you need to spice up your love life the magickal way. With the Love & Romance Sampler Kit, you can invigorate all your senses, and bring out the Goddess within. I was sent one of these sample boxes to review, and it is chock full of witchy wonders. Here is a little bit about each of the products included:

All of Maeve's Men Spell Tarts

These of some of the prettiest wax tarts I have even seen. They are black and red, shaped like roses stars, and hearts, and sprinkled with glitter. There are even real lavender flowers tossed in. They smell heavenly and fill your whole house with their sweet fragrance. Queen Maeve is the Celtic Goddess of Fertility, and each of these tarts is charged with her lust for life.  They even include an engraving tool so you can write your intentions on the back of your tarts. Perfect for anyone who doesn't have the time to stand and watch a candle burn down whenever they want to cast a spell.  The tarts are available in a variety of scents and designs suiting all your magical needs.

Beast to Beauty Bath Tea

If you've never tried it, there is nothing like soaking in a bath filled with all natural herbs. It smells divine, works wonders for your skin, and is completely biodegradable. This tea blend is an infusion of catnip, clove, rose, jasmine, lavender, mandrake, meadowsweet, orange peel, and peppermint. It even comes with a reusable Muslim bag. Just toss the herbs and turn your tub into a giant vat of hot, sweet smelling tea you will love to soak in.




Infusion of Beauty Herbal Tea

This herbal tea is a blend of rose, lavender, catnip, and meadow sweet. Not only does this tea taste amazing, drinking it will also harness the powers of the tea, and help to enhance feelings of confidence as well as love as you drink in the beauty of nature.

Beauty from Within Ritual Oil

Just a dab will do ya. This sweet smelling oil is a blend of grape seed oil, lavender, rose, and patchouli essential oils. It will help increase your confidence and allow you to embrace your inner beauty, which will in turn help release your inhibitions.Use this oil to anoint yourself, your candles or alter tools, or just burn it in a diffuser.

Love & Friendship Powered Incense

Fill your home with the natural fragrance of herbs. The combination of rose, lavender, vanilla, jasmine, and orange peel will enhance feelings of love and friendship as you inhale their delightful fragrance. Just place a pinch on a piece of charcoal and you're good to go. As it burns, envision yourself surrounded by loving friends.

 Come to Me Power Crystals
These are not your average crystals. They are actually salt crystals scented with lavender and vanilla essential oils.  Just place them in an oil diffuser and you'll instantly be surrounded by their sweet scent.  This particular blend will also encourage relationships and is a wonderful way to set the mood. The best part is, the scent lasts for as long as five months. When it starts to dwindle, you just need to add a little more oil.


Tranquility Sugar
If you want to spice up any of your hot beverages, this is the way to do it. The sugar is mixed lavender flowers and vanilla bean. I tried it in my coffee, and it brought my morning to a whole new level.  I imagine it would be just as tasty with tea or hot chocolate. It can also be sprinkled on cookies and cakes. You can exalt in the sweet flavor while enjoying the feelings of tranquility that comes with it.

#Phantom is Coming! Win Phantom of the Opera Address & Bottle Labels from Labels-R-Us!

Whenever I send out a letter, card, or even a little promo item for one of my books, I like to use professional return address labels. I have had them made at lots of different places in the past, but I never found exactly what I was looking for until I came across Labels-R-Us.  They offer dozens of beautiful designs, so there is something for everyone, and their prices are definitely the lowest I've seen. You can a sheet of 120 labels for only $7.95!  You can find their products both on Etsy and their website.

In addition to hosting the giveaway, Labels-R-Us was nice enough to send me some customized labels to review. I really wasn't expecting them to be as amazing as they are. Of course, I went with the Phantom design. It is printed on bright glossy paper with beautiful scripted letters. Above my address, they wrote "Phantom, By Laura DeLuca" and below, they even managed to squeeze in both my websites. All of this is on each label without making them look cluttered. This are exactly what I was looking for. They are a great way to promote my book and my blogs every time I send off a piece of snail mail.

In addition to the address labels, I also received a set of Phantom Bottle Labels. They are a fun way to decorate your water bottles so that they don't get them mixed up with anyone else's when you're out and about.   My son has been using them for basketball practice, and half the other moms said they plan to buy my book after the labels caught their eye. But they also have so many other uses. If you are planning a bridal or baby shower, you can create custom labels and make your owns favors by simply adding the labels to water bottles.  Or if you don't want to put them on bottles, use them to decorate other things. My daughter stole a few to put on her school books. They are definitely a fun and unique way to personalize just about anything.
