I snapped a few shots of the completed departments.
The Orange Blossom Facial Cleanser is my favorite new product so far. Many more coming, and I'm still researching formulations. Essential oil's and perfume oil's haven't been unpacked, and little blank spaces scattered here and there. All in all, it's coming together. It's really like starting over, and lots and lots of planning and work involved
The Skin Care Bar... If you're searching for a Face Creme, but wish to try it first, have a seat. If you're on the hunt for a special scent or wish to flavor a creme or Bittersweet product, have a seat.
The new clothing racks are perfect and offer more space to roam the apothecary shop. Please, leisurely browse and quite possibly discover a piece you can't live without. Hello Bittersweet Girl!
We're going to install new flooring around the counter and dressing room.
Now it's time to replenish stock. We had an abundance of Christmas shoppers, and our inventory was wiped out.
It's a good thing.
It's so funny, how my remodel plans really were not lined up, and the clothing racks were an afterthought and brought on by realizing the existing look wasn't working for me.
I have a great friend that always says, if you don't like it, change it. I'm constantly reminded of her signature phrase.
Looking forward to an exciting new year filled with countess possibilities and opportunities.
On the home front, we're hanging out close to the fire, watching movies, baking and preparing soups.
Winter lends a hand and encourages such living, and I'm always appreciative of the season.
Stranding beads to create Alice Bracelets, while pondering tender thoughts of Alice.
Aunt Vivian is coming to visit soon, and I'm eager to spend time with her. My aunt Vivian is the third generation soap maker, in case you're new.
Always plan to plant seeds. Once planted they don't always need tending to, sometimes the planting of the seed is all that is required. But without the planting of the seed, one will never know.
Speaking of seeds...
I'm also eager to plan a new garden this spring.
Thoughts and plans of a colorful flower garden flowing.
Right now the ground is frozen solid, and those thoughts are only dreams.
Keep the faith.
Jill
