Welcome to Simple Living Media’s Home for the Holidays! We’ve got 25 giveaways across the entire network this week to give you plenty of chances to win a great gift, just in time for the holidays.
This giveaway has ended. Check back on Saturday, December 4 for the winner!
Today I’m giving away a gift basket from Graham Gardens. This basket is chock-full of all sorts of natural body care products, and is worth over a hundred dollars in products, providing you with a variety of goodies to keep and/or share as gifts.
My daughter and I were overwhelmed with all the fun lip balms (I’m a bit of an addict myself), and as someone who has recently switched to artisan/handmade soaps, I was thrilled with the soap selection.
Learn more about this impressive gift basket and how to win it.
Graham Gardens is dedicated to creating healthier personal care products, that still work great. Here’s what the giveaway basket will include:
- Lavender Body Oil
- Sweet ButterBar, Large
- Fresh ButterBar, Small
- Natural ButterBar, Small
- Creature Comfort Salve, Small
- Healthy Skin Salve, Large
- Peppermint Candy Premium Lip Balm
- Orange Sunset Premium Lip Balm
- Coffee Break Premium Lip Balm
- Bright Day Healing Lip Balm
- In the Garden Healing Lip Balm
- Adventure Bay Healing Lip Balm
- Peppermint Cream Cocoa Butter Soap
- Botany Bay Eucalyptus Shea Butter Soap
- The Christmas Kitchen Shea Butter Soap
- Avocado & Oatmeal Unscented Soap
- Yummy Earth Assorted Organic Candies
The butter bars were something I was particularly interested in, as I’ve been on the search for a body moisturizer other than the traditional lotion. I’ve had some breakouts from other lotion bars, but the combination of oils in the Graham Gardens bar seems to work great for my skin and I’m really loving it. It’s no surprise that this is their best-selling product!
The lip balms come in some delicious flavors and they feel as good on as they smell. Since I can always be found with a chapstick in my pocket, I can also appreciate the oval-shaped container, which is a more cormfortable fit in my pocket- sometimes, it’s the little things that matter.
Graham Gardens also makes some really neat healing salves, including one for pets and livestock, for all sorts of soothing and healing. I’ll be applying mine to the pesky cold sore I feel coming on.
The salve was actually the first product the Graham family created when starting their company, and from there they expanded to include all the amazing products they now offer.
The Graham Gardens gift basket was such a luxurious treat to receive in the mail for review, and if you’re looking for some shopping ideas, you can check out the other, smaller gift baskets that they have to offer, featuring your choice of some of their most popular products.
One Simple Organic reader will win an abundantly-filled gift basket from Graham Gardens.

About Nicole
My idea of being pampered would be a nice warm bath all alone with someone else watching the kids and then getting to read in a quiet room.

I find the most relaxing pampering to be a nice long massage. Basically, a nice long spa day with lots of quite time to read and think (between the actual pampering of course)

Like GG and SO!
Pampering myself is sitting in a coffee shop with a mocha and a good book!

Taking a bath or shower without someone knocking on the door.

sleeping in late and taking the time to straighten my hair! would love to win this.
Pampering?
A 10 min shower would be nice about now…and a half hour run…but a sweet little baby puts my pampering on hold!
Getting a pedicure.

The best pampering for me would be some nice quiet time for reading a good book while getting my back rubbed by my husband!

My favorite way to get pampered is getting y hair and nails done. Always makes me feel so taken care of.
I liked both of you on facebook.
anything from getting a nap to running errands by myself is a treat! having kids, you have to just take what you can get! A REAL pampering day for me is a day at the spa. all inclusive, of course.
thank you for this holiday giveaway!!
I like you on facebook too. thanks!
My idea of pampered? A long, quiet massage.
I liked Simple Organic & Graham Gardens on FB.
I think my idea of being pampered is being served a hearty, homecooked meal and enjoying it slowly with people i love!
i liked both graham gardens and simple organic on facebook!

I think being pampered would be getting a massage and not having to do anything for the whole day so I could just relax.

anytime spent alone without the kids….God bless them!
When I think of getting pampered, I think of getting a long luxurious massage followed by a bath and then getting slathered in balms, unguents and perfumes. Finally, I’d sit down in my pyjamas and read, uninterrupted, for the rest of the night.

My idea of pampering is having breakfast ir dinner made for me (I am not fussy) and then a nice warm luxurious bath!
a hot bath and some ice cream! (not at the same time though lol)
Pampering for me would be a massage and a pedicure.
I think a hot cup of something and a bubble bath would qualify right about now.
My favorite way of getting pampered is a manicure and pedicure, but I basket full of goodies will do to!!
Getting a foot massage makes me feel pampered. The basket looks amazing!

I’m very low maintenance, so my idea of getting pampered is taking a shower and using a homemade sugar scrub.
My idea of being pampered is having a day to myself to just lay on the local beach reading a good book or kayaking up the river, enjoying some peace & quiet, while someone watches my son.
My idea of getting pampered is getting a manicure or pedicure! With a toddler running around the house, though, pampering is a rarity
Pampered would mean a massage from husband and waking up to a clean house.
My idea of being pampered is my husband deep cleaning the stove burners and bath tub. Those two tasks take a lot of muscle and I love to see them shine!
Taking the time to be wonderful to myself.
I liked graham gardens and simple organic on facebook : )
A massage, not having to do the dishes, a hot bath and a candle.
definitely a massage
Massage tops the list, that’s for sure. But time alone and away with my honey is right up there too…maybe both??!
My idea of getting pampered is a pedicure or my haircut. I recently have been using artisan soap as well and I notice such a difference. My skin is less dry and I love the smell.
I also like Simple Organic and Graham Gardens.
A back rub!

Oh my…what a wonderful giveaway. Makes me want to take a bath with a cup of tea which is my idea of pampering.
Staying at a nice hotel by myself for one night and having my husband join me for the next night is my idea of being pampered!
Anytime that I have time alone to read, I feel pampered. A good cup of coffee to go with it would be nice.
