So as you may have noticed, the shopping cart that was attached to the blog is missing. As it turned out, only their overpriced paid version of their cart would allow for coupon codes. Meh.
So, for the moment, please feel free to use the old cart that’s located right at the site’s main page, linked right here for your convenience. Or of course, you can always visit the store at either Etsy or Artfire (although neither of those have complete listings of everything).
I do have yet another shopping cart to test out, but it will have to wait, because the Allen West Festival is this weekend!! I’ll be at the same spot as last year, down on Wadsworth (where there is always more room to walk, and usually a much easier place to find a free parking spot). There’s lots of new goodies to check out, too – new soaps like Herb Garden and Fresh Cut Grass, or maybe a Carrot Cake scented candle instead? We’ve been updating our booth’s look, too, with a new tent, shelving and table covers. I’m especially excited about the new tent – it has vents on top! ^_^
It’s shaping up to be a great summer here in Martinsville! Be sure to keep an eye out for us!

So what’s the scoop on the new shopping cart, you ask? Why is it still hidden on the blog?
Well, as it turned out, as the cart works right now, it doesn’t allow for coupon codes. O_o
So as soon as our new shopping cart host rolls out the newest version of the cart, we’ll be switching over, and this will be the main page of the site.
In the mean time, my cold is long since gone, the Fresh Cut grass soap is curing nicely, and I’ve received a few more fragrance oils.
There’s only one or two bars of our Lavender & Goat’s Milk soap left – it’s at the top of the list to be made this weekend.
Also on the list this weekend is the new Herb Garden, which is a truly spectacular spa-like fragrance – top notes of tarragon leaves, grapefruit and lime, followed by middle notes of bergamot and jasmine, and base notes of oakmoss and bamboo.
And a few testers are on the list, too – one called Magnolia in Bloom, and another floral that goes by the name Euphoria. We’ll see how those do!

It’s over 50 degrees outside here in Martinsville, and I….have a head cold. O_o
So I’ve been spending the past few days finishing up the new shopping cart and website. I’m very pleased with how clean the whole thing looks – don’t you agree?
I did manage to get a new batch of soa
p finished before my nose decided to mimic Niagara Falls. Besides more Spring Tulips and Cherry Blossom, I made one that I’ve been wanting to make for a few years now – Fresh Cut Grass!
Yes, you read that right – one of our most popular candle fragrances has migrated over to the soap side. I’ll have a few test bars over in the Etsy shop some time later this week, and the final bars will be ready in about 2-3 weeks.
