BIG TEA SALE!!!

Ok kids! I have never done this before but I'm having a tea sale! This weekend, starting Friday night, I will be offering all my teas (premade, not the samplers) for Buy 2 Teas and Get 1 Free!

So mix and match, get a Detox Tea for the holidays and a Happy Tummy tea for Aunt Mae and get your coworker Noggin Number for Free! Buy your friend struggling through chemo two bags of Tea-Mo-Therapy tea and get yourself Miracle Elixir to get through the winter months healthier than ever.

But, this is a weekend deal only, Friday night through Monday morning. Simply purchase the items in the shop and don't pay. I'll invoice you for the correct amount. All my teas are made by hand and are made fresh to order! If I've had it sitting for more than a week it goes into my new "Overstock" section. The teas can last up to a year and still be fresh, and once you see experience how delicious they are and how effective you'll be coming back for refills!

This sale is going on in both my Etsy and Artfire shops, so take your pick!

Why am I having a tea sale you ask? Well, to be honest its because I want more herbs and supplies! I have dozens of new items rattling around in my head and want to make some large orders but can't until I have made some more sales! So tell all your friends about my sale and you'll be seeing lots more delicious teas, invigorating bath salts, yummy lotions, and healing oils listed in my shop before you know it!

This Weekend in Etsy Land

Wow, big weekend this weekend and I realized just how unprepared for overnight success I am! I know, it's only a temporary swell from being shown on the front page but I've sold about 8 items in 1 day and realized in the midst that a batch of sealable tea bags I bought are no good and won't seal! ACK!

I've special ordered 600 more so I should be in good shape for a while but I won't get them in until later this week. None of the herb stores or health food stores in the area carry them. Boo!!!

Also, I'm currently enmasked in a new concoction of mine that my partner and I are being guniea pigs for...mud masks! Specifically I have melded together some fabulous Dead Sea Mud, Tea Tree Oil and Rosemary Oil and we're awaiting the results. If it works I might have to sell it...this stuff feels great and I'm about to wash it off! Wish me luck!

Monday is here and we're still alive!

I'm obviously alive and kicking and it is another Monday. I've had a lot of people e-mail me to make sure I'm ok as the train I typically take from work to get back home was part of the huge train collision in Washington DC last week. Thank goodness I waited around a bit and finished up a few things or I would have been in that mess. My body is still reeling from the car accident last August, I don't even want to think what would happen to me in a train wreck with no seat belts.

We survived the weekend despite DP and I getting into a screaming match with some rude and nasty movie theater patrons (stole our parking spot and then gave us attitude when we yelled at them for it, there was some cursing, some glaring, and some threatening done) and my cat has survived his first "I'm peeing on the carpet because you aren't getting up at 4:30am on Saturday to feed me!" move. Again, there was a lot of cursing, glaring, and threatening done.

The good news is that my dear guinea pig...I mean friend...finally got one of her migraine headaches and was able to test out the new headache tea I had made and she said it worked wonders! Yay! I only get headaches in the fall because of allergies and needed someone I could test it out on. She said it was great and had the nice side effect of making her a tad loopy. Could be her constitution but I think when I get ready to sell it on my shop I might make that known...no operating heavy machinery!
