New Project & Items

~♥ ♥ ~♥ ♥ ~♥ ♥ ~ Etsy Project Embrace ~♥ ♥ ~♥ ♥ ~♥ ♥ ~

So I was browsing Etsy the other day and happened upon a shop with EPE all over it. WHAT is EPE??? Etsy Project Embrace is awesome.

loveartworks says: "We are a Universal Coalition of Artists whose main purpose is to create awareness and support for people who have been diagnosed with Cancer, whatever kind it may be. The project began as a way to help our friend and wonderful Etsian, Laura Slocum, who has been diagnosed with ovarian cancer and is currently having chemotherapy. You can read more about Laura and her incredible uplifting journey here: http://www.etsy.com/profile.php?user_id=6760712"

I read about Etsy Project Embrace and then convo'd her with a few questions. She is super nice and made my decision to join VERY easy. BEFORE I even convo'd her I had an idea for a Lavender Chamomile set with a soapy and a Creme de Sheer Awesomeness. I'm working on a lip balm idea too. :)

I ordered light pink organza bags from Jen at JensEnchantedGarden.etsy.com. She is super sweet. THEN I ordered these awesome tags from GreenPost.etsy.com. I thought it would make a nice set and would be a good "support item". When I get the bags and tags and list this item I will be donating 30% of the proceeds to cancer research.

Also..

Speziato Mele is a spicy and earthy blend of lemon, litsea, black vanilla, cinnamon, clove, petitgrain, ginger and nutmeg essential and fragrance oils.

Speziato Mele perfume is blended with a base of perfumers alcohol and is in a 15 ml bottle. If you are pregnant check with a doctor before using. Speziato Mele will come in an organza bag ready for gift giving.

20% of the proceeds from this purchase (excluding shipping) with be donated to the American Cancer Society in honor of Etsy Project Embrace Team member Laura Slocum of creativelytangled.etsy.com. Laura is currently undergoing treatment for Ovarian Cancer. More about Laura may be found here http://lauraslocumpainted.etsy.com. XOXO

After the year I've had this is a breath of fresh air for me. Being in and out of the hospital and then my dad's heart surgery and regular family stuff is stressful. Being able to focus my energy on the positive is always a plus. It's absolutely amazing to see and watch all of these shops come together for the greater good. I'm proud and honored to be a part of it.


As we stroll through the cemetery an owl, making his home in an old Oak, says hello. Leaves blow in the gentle breeze as he pulls me close. Walking past long lost loved ones we've reached the Mausoleum. With a gentle kiss and embrace we fade into the wind.

Fleur Naturelle is Amber Patchouli...warm, sensual inviting. Full bodied yet subtle, Amber Patchouli is hauntingly beautiful.

Plush Pumpkin reminds me of a lavish day at the spa. Pampering your senses with the wonderful aromas of fresh lavender, vanilla blossoms and spicy pumpkin is an absolute dream. It is romantic, spicy....exotic. This is not a soap for the beginning pamperer. It is definitely for one who knows what she wants and goes for it.

Muspotwitharsan You have ABSOLUTELY NO IDEA how much you would be missing out on if you didn't add this to your collection. OMG! An amazing blend of Tuberose, Sandalwood and Musk. Sensual, soft and incredibly sexy. A bar for both men and woman it was named by the infamous Dr John and is a family favorite.

Goat's Milk Brown Sugar & Fig. OMG! Delicious. I can't wait to list this one.
