10/1/2020 0 Comments octobersI kind of wanted to keep this post simple without any outside clutter, because I believe that October speaks volumes! Once the calendar turns over to October you begin to see the transformation all around you. The leaves begin to fall and the air has a certain earth scent that is unlike any other smell. This warm earthy scent inspires us to attempt to create duplicate aromas.
The studio is filled with scents of apple, cinnamon, vanilla, clove, peppermint and other autumn into winter amazing fragrance that not only warms your heart and soul, but echoes sweet memories of pumpkin carving and childhood Octobers. Our Holiday Soap production has started and we will offer our signature Twelve Days of Christmas soap beginning, November 13. We with that we could make available this seasonal offering at our web store, but the nature of handmade and the process involved with curing and wrapping, etc. does not allow us to. On a good note, this soap will begin arriving at our door store on Friday, November 13, 2020. We have collaborated with some amazing paper companies to design a one of a kind beautiful holiday gift! Happy Fall! Jill McDowell Lincoln

9/13/2020 0 Comments A Bittersweet FallAs the mornings begin to get crisp our door store moves with the waves of autumn. We begin introducing yummy fall blends of cardamom, cinnamon, vanilla, and sweet orange soaps and apothecary. Our Perfume Department awaits you! Here you can blend a fabulous new fall body spray, lotion, room spray, bath salt or perfume. We're a bit partial to these warm and comforting spicy fragrances and love sharing our bounties of handmade goodness with you, our wonderful friends!
As we begin pondering new packaging and creative ways to gather inspiration we encourage you to explore your horizons and follow a personal path of creativity. We can't wait to uncover new ideas this season! With warm wishes for a happy fall, Jill McDowell Lincoln 8/25/2020 0 Comments texture + plantsIf you've ever visited our store then you have probably noticed how we love fusing texture and live plants into our design.
The decorating concept is not new but seems to be having a revival. The frosty months are the perfect time to head to the fields or woods to gather a bundle of dried naturals. When I was a young girl my mom would head to the woods and come home with large bundles of naturally freeze dried bouquets that she arranged in crocks and displayed them in our home. I always admired her creativity and ability to decorate on a budget. Today, I love blending both texture and plants because it allows you to dub in natural elements. My decorating style has always embodied natural elements. When I decorate a room you can be certain that there will be texture and vibrant green living plants. I can't imagine a room without these simple elements. As uncomplicated as they may seem to be, they add a good amount of punch to a design. Not to mention a stem of green and a woven piece marry to unite a personal style. I like to refer to it as Natural Garnish! Whether you cut a fresh branch from a tree or find a nubby piece of fabric both will help you to achieve a natural design. Less is more, and simple is just right. In the weeks to come I'll be sharing some of my secrets to designing a space that guides you through the next glorious season. Meanwhile, head outdoors and grab some nature to share in your indoor space.
