Mothers deserve to be rewarded. Let's face it though, sometimes this means rewarding ourselves. Don't get me wrong, I love getting macaroni necklaces, handmade cards, quirky mugs, fantastical strangely coloured makeup and nail polish, and candles I will probably never use, but I love to be spoilt. My kids, and husband are usually at a loss as to what to get me! (I don't think I'm that difficult to buy for!) I guess its time to write a Mothers Day shopping list. 

​One massage voucher please, a spa day? Just a Mani-Pedi? Sometimes, life happens and this just may be a little much to ask for. So, after Mothers Day is over, take some time out for yourself, and enjoy our favourite things for mum. {Well, besides our beautiful children, husband, and their random acts of kindness.}

Thieves was so named after the legend of fifteenth century thieves who used a mixture of herbs and spices whilst they robbed the dead and dying. It was known that these four French thieves used a mixture of Clove, Rosemary and other aromatic botanicals.
​
Which brings us to our modern day era... ​This legend inspired this modern day mix of herbs and spices, and distilled and blended together, Thieves Essential Oil was born. The founders of Young Living created a unique blend of cloves, rosemary, lemon, and cinnamon essential oils into their popular "Thieves Oil Blend."

This Thieves Oil has become so popular, that they have created a natural cleaning collection based entirely on this oil blend. In my opinion it's popularity belongs to a few things. First, it smells divine. {No, really. It does}  Second, cloves, rosemary, lemon and cinnamon pack a punch... whether it be for their aromatic benefits or their cleaning power, you're on a winner with this one.
​

​You can find DIY recipes all over the internet (hello pinterest!) for incorporating this blend. So, if youre a DIYer, it is the perfect essential oil to start your oils collection. Add to your own natural recipes for green cleaning, homemade soap, surface spray, laundry powder, hand soap, floor cleaner, bathroom cleaners... you get the idea, the only limit is your imagination! If you've never smelt it, you really should try it. It smells like holiday baking and delicious spices, and is a favourite for those who use a diffuser for that "freshly baked" aroma without the hard work of baking!

You can even find versions of DIY Thieves Oil "recipe hacks" to make your own Thieves Oil but once you buy all the individual essential oils in these recipes, in our opinion, you may as well have bought "the real thing" in the bottle. The quality of the original Thieves is hard to beat- your nose knows.
