Tis the Basket Season~

I'm the dedicated "Basket-Maker" at the shop. Both the Herbarium and Crow's Nest shop. I've been making gift baskets for years & love it! Each one is unique and usually has its own challenges. Most of the time I'm in the back room, a frenzy of tissue, ribbon & blow dryer in hand, getting the basket just right while the customer is browsing the shop :)

I Love my Job :)

Refresher Oils

Refresher Oils are now available on all my Potpourri's

After requests from customers, I'm offering my blended oils in 5ml bottles on the potpourri pages of my website. Why didn't I think of this sooner :)

Bulbs Have Arrived!

Soooo excited to get my fall bulbs delivered!!
Most of these will be planted in the new cottage garden~  The tulips are in different shades of purple with reds, yellow & salmon blended in.  There's tons of purple & red alliums too.  Plus I'm going to do a mass planting of crocus's in the front lawn~  Whoohoo!

Can't wait until the "show" this Springtime :)

New Candle Lights~

I've come up with a few new designs for my Candle Lights~ One of my wholesale companies requested a variety....so here they are :)

Lavender CandleLight

Prim Holiday CandleLight

Spice Cupboard CandleLight

Plus a Primitive CandleLight, Sweet Annie CandleLight, Pumpkin CandleLight & Winter CandleLight are on my website~  Enjoy :)

Scented Geranium Harvest

I harvested the last of the Rose Geraniums!

All this from only 2 plants. I got 7 large bunches hung in the barn. When they're dried I'll strip the leaves and store them for my Geranium Potpourri.
Love, Love, Love Scented Geraniums :)

BEAR!

Look who came to visit~

New Double-Wick Candles~

Just made these large soy candles that take 2 wicks. Here's my Vanilla with Sweet Annie blossoms sprinkled on top~ Smells Wonderful!

Holiday Votive Candles

These are my new Holiday Votive Candles. So far I've made them with my Winterberry scent, Pine Needle, Noel & Country Christmas. LOVE THEM!

Sweet Annie Harvest

I harvested some Sweet Annie & Coxcomb from the gardens tonight~  Mmmm smells Wonderful!

Looks like the deer are bedding down in the Sweet Annie patch.
I don't mind tho, they must love it too :)

Bunches in the Barn

I've been waiting to do this for many months....hang the bunches of herbs & flowers in the new barn. Ahhhhhhhhh  finally :)

I took this shot on the upper level

Here's the view of the lower level of the loft-the trees are just starting to turn colors~

Drying are Hydrangeas, Sage, Basil, Anise Hyssop & of course More Mints!

Falltime Flower Bouquets

Here's a collection of flowers & herbs that I just cut from the gardens and started bunching. A mixture of Mints, Rudbeckia, Sweet Annie, Artemesia & Zinnias~

Now I'm off to put a bunch of nails in the new barn and start hanging these beauties :)
