We're hot into summer at the modern apothecary shop! Shipments of pre-fall apparel will be beginning to surface soon.
This Friday we'll be doing something we've never done. We typically only have one soap sale and that's after we come back from winter break, but I'm finding that with an increase in manufacturing excess bars are taking over the soap studio. With that in mind, Friday we'll offer a variety of unwrapped bars of Bittersweet at a discounted price. Last winter and during a snow storm we had lines of folks waiting to stock up and take advantage of our winter soap sale. The soap sale is brief. The sale soap is usually gone within two days! Oversized muslin bags are ready to be filled with seven or eight pounds of soap. Unfortunately, we're not able to list the sale soap on our webshop because it sells out so fast. May the force be with you!
It's hard to put into words the amazing scent of this soap! I'll just leave it at that. A new soap that arrived last week, but won't be around for long. Just say'in.
Artisan Wood Jewelry. Alice Bracelet by Bittersweet and lightweight wooden teardrops. ♥ , and since we don't reorder duplicate merchandise at the shop, once they're gone...
New stretchy headbands are back! I spent an afternoon making a fresh batch, and they're another object of attraction at the shop. We currently offer four different prints, but I have a stash of fabric that I'm dying to use to make more.
We have a new Lip Balm coming on Wednesday. I'm being hush-hush and not revealing the new flavor. A Summer Surprise!
We now have ten varieties of Bittersweet Lip Balm! There's a flavor for everyone. If the flavor isn't your thing, we even offer an unscented Lip Balm.
We're making grilled pizzas for dinner and I started juicing celery this morning. I will admit celery juice on its own isn't very tasty. I'm thinking of adding an apple or two to the green concoction. Then I believe it will be much tastier.
The flower of the week, last week...Larkspur
This week the flower truck delivers fresh lavender and feverfew. Bundles of both available to take home.
My zinnias are finally blooming!
Bachelor Buttons and Phlox follow their lead.
Keep the faith.
