Tincture's Galore!
Good Sunday all! So the photo you see above is my Catmint and Chickweed tincture getting their drink on! :p Well, not really, but they are submersed in 80 proof vodka. They will be in this state for about 4 weeks or so. I will be using the Catmint for a bug repellent (No More Skeet Skeet - Love it!!!) and the Chickweed is for my personal use. I can't wait for the bug repellent to be done. But sadly, I have to wait (and sadly, so do all of you). But I'll update more about the Catmint tincture in the coming weeks...
Above are a few of my plants for my garden. I have yet to transfer them into the ground (pft, thanks to my busy schedule). You see Rosemary, Mint (that looks like it's dying), Calendula and Chamomile. And for some reason, some random plant decided to grow along with my Calendula and Chamomile...
Organic Zinnia's I grew from seedlings...
Lavender <3
And my Catmint plant! Which is a wee bit lopsided today. It had too much fun in the thunderstorm we had this morning I suspect... Spiders love this thing (which doesn't make me too happy cause I'm not a fan...Not to mention it's below my bedroom window, ack!). My garden is a slight mess at the moment, seeing it's not quite done yet, so pardon the mess. I'll post some new pics once everything is planted and all the grass is cleaned away. :)
Today I will be making my Cocoa Salve to be sold in my shop (yay finally, right?). Also Blue Raspberry and Mango'd for Strawberry's Lip Balm. That'll be up in a few hours. And BIG congrats to Kathleen who won our Salve and Lip Balm giveaway.

Have a good Sunday all <3

Sneak Peek!!
This my friends...is my pride & joy. I am sooooooo incredibly proud of this product and can't wait to get it in my shop ASAP! This is my all natural all purpose salve in a tube. It's 2 oz of pure natural ingredients that are GOOD for your skin and will work wonders at curing dry heels, elbows, knees, cuticles, lips, scars...the list goes on and on and on. And seeing that there is peppermint essential oil in this product, it works wonderfully on your chest when you have a cold. It is truly all purpose. This product will be for sale sometime next week in my shop. I couldn't wait to get the word out on this product. I hope you are all just as excited about this as I am <3
Shim Shim Shimmmmer
One of my new obsessions is Mica Powder. I just love the shimmer it brings your lips. It makes a plain balm oh so special!!! The balm above is Peppermint Shimmer, which is now in my shop. I love this balm because while it gives your lips shine and sparkle, you also feel this wonderful cooling sensation thanks to the peppermint essential oil! It feels great in the hot heat, it's almost like an air conditioner for your lips. Mmm, just what we need, right? :p

New!
What a crazy hectic week this has been! I still don't feel that I am fully adjusted to being home from Crandon. My mind is still checked out and up north! I sold out on a lot of my balms (so awesome), but that means I need to work double time to get those made up, in addition to making new balms to put in my shop...not to mention my all purpose salve! The calendula flowers and olive oil is done infusing, so tomorrow morning I'm going to strain it out and hopefully have some salves ready for sale sometime this weekend or early next week! I'm going to make "Funny Honey" balm tomorrow morning, and it should be up in my shop this weekend...I'll also be making Pina Colada, new batch of Monkey Business & Cherry Bomb, as well as Peppermint & Green Peppermint shimmer balm. I'm excited to get this all out, but man, I'm already exhausted thinking about it :p I hope you all have a great weekend <3
