Did you notice that Joy in This Journey has two new sponsors in the left sidebar? I am very excited — their contributions help cover my hosting costs (websites aren’t free) and travel expenses for The Relevant Conference.

I am thrilled to support each of these home-based or small businesses. I’m not a salesperson, and I’m not a product blogger, but I do love to make connections and hook people up. I hope that these businesses will be a good fit for you. Would you take a minute drop by their sites, let them know you heard about them from me (this way they will know their sponsor dollars were well-spent), and maybe even consider giving them your business (an even better way to let them know they placed their ad on a worthwhile blog!)?

Without further ado, introducing my new blog sponsors…

Hidden Treasure for Little Minds®

Hidden Treasure for Little Minds® is a book series for children between the ages of 2 and 10. The four books include two age-specific daily devotionals, a prayer book and an activity book.

Based upon Christian principles, they are designed to help build godly character in children during the all-important formative years. Each book is vibrant, fun and interactive, so kids are sure to enjoy each time they read or engage in the activities. All books are authored by Adesola Obunge.

(Adesola created a link on her e-store page so you can let her know how you came from Joy in This Journey!)

Shaklee

If you want to reduce the harmful chemicals and strong smells that characterize most cleaners on the market, look no further than Shaklee’s household cleaners. They offer both mildly-scented and fragrance free cleaners for your home, kitchen, and laundry.

I’ve been using their cleaners for a year now, and I really like that I don’t have to clean the chemicals off my counters and sinks after I clean them. I’ve used their basic cleaner to scrub carpets, clean windows and mirrors, soak down our bathrooms in my endless battle against the smell of pee, and clean my floors.

They have a scouring paste that my husband swears by (or he would, if he were the swearing kind) — it polishes our flat-top stove to perfection, and it has removed every single stain from our white kitchen counters. (Who puts white counters in? The same people who put carpet in the bathroom, that’s who.)

This month, you can take advantage of two fantastic specials

• Get your registration/membership fee (think Sam’s Club or Costco) waived with any order of $30 or more (a $19.95 value)
• Buy the basic cleaner and three spray bottles, and get a free microfiber cleaning cloth

Miss Selby’s Soap

I’ve mentioned Miss Selby’s Soap a few times so technically she isn’t a NEW sponsor, but I just want to make sure that you know what fantastic all-natural soap and bath products she makes.

Plus, she has big news. This winter, she began making and selling her own liquid/foaming soap! This is great news for those of you who may not like bar soap, check out her liquid soap. She makes it in small batches with sunflower and coconut oils and without sulfates. As you can see in the photo, I have cotton candy-scented soap, and I LOVE it (though it does tend to trigger my sweet tooth when I wash my hands!).

Also, don’t miss the Miss Selby’s Soap Sale page — you can snag some great deals there!

Don’t forget to use the coupon code “joy” for 10% off your order.
