New Autumn Seasonals Are Here!
The Autumn Newsletter 2015 just swooshed it's way to mailboxes everywhere. It only makes sense to post it here too!
Dear Friends,
And just like that (snaps fingers) our hot, glorious summer has exited stage left. With a stiff gust of wind, stormy skies, and pelting raindrops, blustery autumn makes an entrance. The winds of change bring back our "usual" weather in the Pacific Northwest - chilly, breezy, drizzly. And for most of us, it's like welcoming back an old friend.
Summer vacations settle into happy memories as we welcome the familiar routines of back-to-school and return to work. Fall shoos us indoors, to familiar comforts of snuggly couch blankies, cozy sweaters, steaming mugs, hours spent in front of a crackling fire. There is a sense of contentment that autumn carries, just one of its many gifts.
AUTUMN HARVEST SEASONAL SOAPS
Autumn's cool, crisp air crystallizes our senses, making the scents and colors of the harvest season even more magical. This year's autumn harvest seasonal soaps are brimming with the very best fruits and spices of the season. ($4.50 each)
Vanilla Pear: Juicy, sweet, ripe yellow pear and warm vanilla bean combine for a decadent treat. This is a luscious fragrance that celebrates the very best of autumn.
Cranberry Harvest: This is the much-loved cranberry soap that people wait all year for. Tart cranberry, a splash of apple cider plus a few other magical things, like cinnamon spice, orange peel, straw bales and plaid blankets. Well at least a couple of those things, but you'll be thinking of all of them while sniffing this one.
Pumpkin Cinnamon: Pumpkin, cinnamon and sugar are inseparable friends. This much loved trio makes all your favorite fall treats - pie, cookies, cake and that inevitable latte too. This fragrance blend is a dollop of pumpkin, with oodles of cinnamon goodness and a heaping spoonful of vanilla sugar.
Apple Spice: Delicious apple cider, cinnamon, clove and nutmeg - so much apple-y goodness, it's bound to be your new fall favorite.
