Free gift with next purchase!

At the grocery store the other day I fell prey to pleas from a number of high school students selling chocolate bars in an attempt to fund a trip to Washington, DC. I have vivid memories of such funding efforts from my own high school days, and I actually had a bit of cash on me, and so I indulged. Now, I'm not what you'd call a chocoholic. I understand that this puts me in the minority among humans and probably even further so among those who frequent this blog. I've been sitting here eyeing t… Continue

New Soaps!

I've been busy, busy, busy making new soaps. And having a blast, I tell you what. I talked about the new rose soap previously but failed to talk about the others! Five new soaps and a sixth on the way. Tim's mentioned his mad love for tea tre… Continue

Get the Cat's Toes Fixed

Poor Chocolate's toes... I don't know if Loiosh chewed them up, or if he stepped on something sharp when he got outside for a couple minutes, or what; but his poor toes were beat up and pretty infected and after a brief attempt to treat them myself I took him to the vet. So there's my poor kitten with a bandage on his back left paw which he hates, and I'm trying to convince him it's better than the cone I had hi… Continue

A while ago I joined the Talent Database -- another directory, but this one of a different sort: the Talent Database features artists, musicians, and actors in addition to craftspeople. Well, what did I get in the mail today but… Continue

Roses and Roses Soap

Well, it's been a while, and I did get a request for the stuff. So rose soap has returned to Om Shanti Handcrafts. Rose absolute oil. Rose petals as an exfoliant. And a single rose petal pressed into the top of each bar. What else needs to be said? … Continue

Paternosters!

I know I've explained paternosters here before but it's been quite a while. I've continued making them, and selling them at SCA events, but up until now I haven't got round to posting any more. Well, it turns out that in the Catholic Church October is the Month of the Rosary. Having been so reminded, I figured it was about time to do some posting.… Continue

Science Fiction Double Feature

Minus the science fiction, anyway. I'm in two places for the price of one! So to speak. Belle at Paper Girl Productions makes really awesome stuffed animals -- not just your run-of-the-mill Gund bears but truly unique pieces, some of which I can't even identify as to species. Some really, really awesome stuff, though.… Continue

Get the Cat Fixed Sale!

Well, it's that time. The time we all knew would come. It's time to Get the Cat Fixed. He's not too thrilled about this as you can see. But under the circumstances, who can blame him? In honour of his soon-to-be-missing bits (and in the hopes of helping cover some of the costs) I'll be running a Get the Cat Fixed Sale through the month of October. 25% off of everything in the store!
