Bath Bombs Away!

I just got confirmation that my new supplies are on their way and I should have them by the end of the week! And a long weekend! Oh joy!

So, I'm getting plenty of stuff to make bath bombs, going to make them all natural and herbal, of course. I also put in another order (and got some nice essential oils for a new customers too) of additional stuff to make Halloween and Winter themed bombs too! So excited.

What else is new....Trying to put the finishing touches on my new website www.theomintention.com and I think my next tea will be a flu-fighting tea since so many people around me are getting sick and MD/DC/VA is getting ready for a horrible flu season. Why not give them something to help fight it BEFORE you get hit with it? I know I'll be drinking a lot more tea in the coming months. I need to save my vacation/sick time for my wedding in May.

See that dress? That's my dress! I know the front looks nice but the back is amazing! It laces up like a corset but with these thick ribbons and it is so beautiful. Le sigh...le heave. 8 more months. ACK!

Weekly Featured Etsy Product


I've decided to cut down the amount of Etsy features I was doing as they took almost a week to complete and were very hard to put together in the way I had hoped...so from now on I am choosing one or two products that I think are just great and featuring them each week.


My first choice is a funky steampunk hat I saw that grabbed my eye immediately!


This fantastic mini is very steampunk! More elaborate and intricate than their others, this one has lots of eye candy on it. They started with a brown brocade fabric, added a heavy ribbon hat band and vines, flowers and a clock button in the back. The overlay on the side is a wonderful vintage veiling in brown.

I have to admit that I've been thinking of possible costumes I could put together so I could buy this hat....and I will continue to do so until I have succeeded! I don't know about you but there is something slightly Alice in Wonderland about this hat....maybe when the movie comes out I'll have a reason to buy it...Mad Hatter a'la Johnny Depp?

This fabulous mini top hat is made by GypsyLadyHats and in her store you will find so many amazing hats that you won't know where to start drooling first. Corset hats, velvet hats, goth hats, military hats, hats with veils...love it!
