Have I Got A Deal For You-Father's Day Special Pricing
This beautifully handcrafted Black Walnut Shave brush with Sleeping Turquoise Inlay and Super Silvertip Badge shave knot is discounted 20% due to a very slight imperfection. This shave brush has a slight wobble when it sits on end. Theoretically shave brushes should hang upside down and won't sit on end,but because we feel it's just a tad imperfect our loss is your gain. Pair this with some shave soap and this would still be a spectacularly fine Father's Day gift-drop me a line if you are interested.
Beautifully handcrafted Black Walnut Shave Brush with Abalone Inlay and Super Silvertip Badger shave knot is also discounted 20% due to slight imperfection. This brush also has a very slight wobble when it sits on end, again, theoretically a shave brush almost never sits on end(they should dry upside down). This handsome lovingly made brush is priced at $78.40+shipping. This brush paired with shave soap will make a memorable Father's Day gift. Holler if you're interested.

2013 Handcrafted Soapmakers Guild Conference or BUST!!!
I'm
so very happy and honored to announce that I will be a "guest blogger"
blogging from the 2013 Handcrafted Soapmakers Guild Conference that will

Myself and Jean Horn of SoapArt will be going in the stead of Anne-Marie due to the impending Bramble Girl's arrival. We wish Anne-Marie the loveliest and speediest of "special deliveries" and "Thank You" so much for an amazing opportunity!

Am I The Only One?
Sometimes, I think I must be the ONLY one who thinks things like Calendula infusing in the sun is beautiful; that new projects are exciting-full of possibilities, anticipating the outcome is such a driving force for me, and then finally the satisfaction of things turning out just as you imagined-priceless. Two of my new products are starting to take shape, and that is such a gratifying thing.

Projects
I am looking forward to some new projects that I am hoping to launch just shy of Father's Day, and of course they are new products for "Him." I can't wait to show them to you, and hope you like them. Infusing some Calendula and German Chamomile is part of the equation, and the Petunia is a back up for my beautiful Pink Petunia that so far has survived with lots of moving it in and out to protect it from the continued threat of freezing temps.
