I keep thinking that I’m going to get better at writing a regular blog for my site, but I just keep getting so busy that my brain is all a jumble with so many things at once that it would be impossible to get them written out.  One of these days I will be diagnose with ADD, I’m sure of it.

I mentioned in my previous post (omg 2 months ago!) that there was some wholesale stuff going on, and yes indeed there is!  My products can now be purchased at Skinthia’s Full Body Spa & Massage in Lake Stevens.  If you are a local, it is really in the best interest of your well being to get in there and check it out!  I would highly recommend seeing April for some massage because she is truly talented (and you just might get my products used on your booty to boot!)

I’m preparing a Winter newsletter to get out to all of my customers, but that also keeps getting back-burnered.  I was waiting on getting the new products ready so that I could officially announce them, but I guess I’ll do that here.  I should have them on the site in the next few days, but please look forward to the new solid perfume sticks, and the most fantastic anointing balms made with Rae’s Herb Majicks oil blends.  They are truly fantastic, and I’m not just saying that because I made them… other people are saying it too, I promise!  The Herb Majicks site is also finally getting its grand makeover, so very shortly you will be able to order the incredible line of HM products online.

I am still working on the whipped shea butter recipe.  I’m not sold on it 100% yet, but I am still hopeful for it.  It will probably be a project for after the holidays.  I am also playing with the idea of producing small tins of cuticle butter, and maybe doing a hair wax which is something we already use here at home.

Ok, I am off to get started on cleaning and doing inventory after the very successful product party last night.  As soon as everything is updated I will work on getting that newsletter out and will most definitely encourage you to get your holiday orders in asap if you want them in time for Christmas!  I need to have orders in by probably the 11th or 12th of December to promise Christmas delivery.  I will be out of town again December 19-21 so will need to have everything ready to ship before then.

One piece at a time this giant puzzle comes together. Often getting pushed aside for life and its many facets, eventually sections start looking like the picture on the box, and new hope is breathed into seeing it become a completed work.

The most recent sideline has been my dog getting sick. It was a whirlwind week with her declining health that lead to emergency surgery, and now a fantastic recovery. I’m not sure that I actually slept more than a few hours at a time last week. It wore me down and I didn’t have it in me to work on work.

I jumped back into it today and got a huge batch of kelp and aloe made so it can sit and cure for a month. I also played around with the all-natural goat milk base and tried out some peppermint-rosemary-basil bars with green oxide marbling. I’m also playing around with a recipe for whipped shea butter and need to get some into the hands of my testers!

Exciting things are happening in the wholesale realm! I’ve got my foot and all of my other 2000 body parts in the door of a fantastic little spa that I will expand upon more later!

It’s time for another weekend getaway… I miss Portland and my P-family! Once I get back, it will be nose to the grindstone yet again!
