Okay, this just won't work. Just won't. It has been....NINE MONTHS, since my last post.
seriously, I have no excuse...except...well (thinking of one, now...).
okay, I got nothing. Except a new promise to do better at keeping in touch.
Not sure how many folks read this, but I hope people do. Of course, I write what I write to let you know a bit more about me and my process. Putting more 'human' in the 'handmade' as it were.
So, what has been…
It is, of course, a few days ahead of the New Year's celebrations. But, feeling a bit reflective this morning.
Not sure how 2021 was for you & your family, but for mine...I'm glad it is nearly in the past. We had health issues (mostly me), job woes, car issues and a wreck (no one hurt) and similar. It seemed, for a few months, that we were constantly on a 'one step forward, and two steps back' theme.

That's one of the reasons why I often update the front page of my site with a fall image in September! Sure, other parts of the US are likely already enjoying…
And, by Salty Serenade, I mean...bath salts! Spa Bath salts, to be exact. The very same Epsom + Sea Salt blend that I used to sell in my gift shop. Truly wonderful for an end of day relaxing soak. Epsom salts are, by themselves, absolutely amazing in the bath, but mixed with natural sea salts AND wonderful fragrance, well...it is even better.
I had planned to reintroduce the Reed Diffusers before Christmas. But those will be held until after the first of the year. I'm still trying to…
