Southern Snow and New Scents!

Well we certainly are having some weird weather! It was 68 degrees today, and tomorrow we are supposed to get snow! That's crazy--but that's the weather here this time of the year! I just took the dogs out for their last business trip of the night, and the wind is really blowing out of the south. You can feel and smell the moisture in the air, and the temperature is beginning to drop. I certainly hope we don't get snowed in--it doesn't take much snow here to paralyze things!

I listed some new scented tarts on Etsy today--Mulled Cider, Country Apple, and Baby Powder.
They all smell just wonderful! The Country Apple is a Bath & Body Works duplicate, and it is really clean and nice smelling. I'll probably make some soap with it soon :-)
If you haven't tried soy wax tarts, you really should! Soy wax is much easier to clean up, and its eco-friendly and good for our American farmers. I will have an article on soy wax coming up soon--just keep checking back!

We got a new birdfeeder for the back deck. I've taken a little video of it. It's not very good, but at least you can see our little birds. I'm going to keep taking videos of them throughout the year so we can enjoy them together :-)

That's all for now. I hope everyone stays warm and safe with all the snowy, rainy weather that is going on now in parts of the country. Stay indoors, and try to remember that spring is on the way!!

Etsy from Mississippi!

I sell on Etsy (obviously) and thought it would be nice to feature some favorite sellers. I decided to start with sellers from Mississippi, simply because there are so few of us! Look for my first featured Mississippi Etsian coming up very, very soon!
