It has been a long time since one of my items made it to the front page, one of the highest honors in Etsy-land. Thank you, Etsy, and thanks BeadedDetails for making the treasury list :) :) :)
Alaska
I just finished making a set of custom-scented perfumes and lotions for Jewell Gardens in Skagway, Alaska. Some of the scents include Alaskan Wildflowers, Fruits of the Garden, and English Rose Tea. Fun!
I ♥ ALASKA.

My setup at last year's Morton Arboretum Craft Show.New Lotions and Lip Balms!
~MARRIED TO THE SEA~Many-Purpose Solid Lotion / Perfume
I created this scent to smell just like a day at the beach. It has been about 10 degrees and snowing here in Chicago and I couldn't help fantasizing about fresh ocean breezes, notes of sea salt, and the whiff of warm, tropical coconut.
LEMON SORBETEpic Lip Balm with Vitamin E
This is my new favorite flavor! It tastes just like a sweet, refreshing scoop of lemon sorbet. It also reminds me of the lemony taste of Barnum's Animal Crackers :)
JASMINE TEA Lip Gloss with a Hint of Sheer Color
The light, delicate flavor will remind you of a cup of sweet jasmine tea at Thai Happiness restaurant. This glossy lip balm has a hint of sheer plum shimmer that looks very natural, and it's full of great things for your lips!
YELLOW CAKE Many-Purpose Solid Lotion / Perfume
Admittedly I'm not always a huge fan of sweet scents, but there's just something about this yellow cake fragrance. The scent is so authentically cakey, it reminds me of a batch of cupcakes fresh out of the oven.
CHERRY BLOSSOM Epic Lip Balm with Vitamin E
An unusual lip balm that smells like a walk through a springtime orchard of powdery cherry blossoms and honeysuckle, while it tastes like sweet, fruity cherry and peach.
GIANT 8oz. VAT of Many-Purpose Solid Lotion!Now available in giant 8oz. tins, 4x bigger than my regular size lotions. They will keep your skin moisturized all day even in the cold, dry winter months. Slather with abandon!
Thank you, Etsy!
My I Love Lychee solid lotion was featured last weekend in Etsy's blog The Storque. Thanks to everyone who ordered! I'm working day and night to make everything in time for Christmas.
