A Busy Day and a Calming Treasury

Yesterday was insanity. Per usual, my sister slept over on Friday night and we went to yoga on Saturday morning. There's a cool Bed & Breakfast a few minutes away called Turquoise Barn, where they have their own farm and offer raw and/or vegan food to their guests. In keeping with this theme, the owner teamed up with a local yoga instructor to offer classes on Saturday mornings, so my sister and I have been going together the past few months. I've been doing yoga for awhile now, but I always look forward to getting out of the house and practicing outside or in the neat, refurbished old barn at Turquoise Barn (hence the name!!). Anyway, I've managed to ramble now...

After yoga, we showered and headed out to Avalon Moon in Delhi to pick up some of my beloved essential oils because I have an upcoming craft fair and will need to make some more of my aromatherapy candles. After that we drove to Hamden so that I can replenish some of my candles at an adorable farm store called Lucky Dog. (That's right, folks, Candles By Nature is all over the place now! haha.) After we hit the more local spots it was finally time to make the trip to New Paltz to drop off some stock at American Craftsman. The shop is now under new ownership, so this was also a chance for me to meet the new owner, Cat, who was really sweet. What's also really exciting is that American Craftsman is now carrying my full Aromatherapy Collection, so I'm super psyched about that  :)

After American Craftsman, my candle work was done and my sister and I had some time to roam around New Paltz and check out the shops. There are a bunch of really neat stores in the town, but my all-time favorite is a clothing store called the Groovy Blueberry. I literally would wear everything in that store and their prices are reasonable, too!

We had such a long day and I didn't end up getting home until about 9:30 after driving for hours, but it was so worth it. We got in some quality sister time and I introduced her to a cool little town. Oh, and of course, I also got more of my candles out there which is always a great thing!

In stark contrast to my crazy Saturday, my Vanilla Amber candle was featured in this great Treasury entitled Slow Sensual Saturday. Enjoy!

Treasury: Moon and Stars

I have this funky little ring with moon and star designs, which I absolutely love. This Treasury was inspired by that ring. Check it out here and let me know which is your favorite ;)

I Would Give You the Moon and the Stars

Candles By Nature is Now at Avalon Moon!

 An Enchanted Emporium of
Jewelry, Gifts & Esoteric Supplies.
68 Main Street, Delhi NY 13753, USA
(866) 747-7389

As of this weekend, my Aromatherapy Collection can now be found at the lovely Avalon Moon in Delhi, NY. I know I've raved about this shop before, but I'll do it again anyway. If you're ever in the Catskills, please promise me you'll stop by Delhi and check out Avalon Moon. And even if you're not in the area, you should still check out her site, which has a beautiful selection of everything and anything related to nature, spirituality, and all other good things.

I am so excited that my Aromatherapy Collection is on the shelves at Avalon Moon, it truly feels like a great beginning. And it only makes me that much more pumped to keep experimenting with aromatherapy blends and trying out new combinations.

I'll be sure to keep you guys posted on any new additions to my collection, but for now you can check it out at my Etsy shop.

Happy browsing!
