a little paws

I'm leaving again today, this time without my beloved little family of kittens and Landon. My partner and I are off on a buying trip in preparation for next months pop-up shop then it's onto to Los Angeles to set everything up. I wont be home until February something and it saddens me greatly. I think, after this, I will try not to travel again this year (hah! fat chance). It's turning me into a full on hermit when I am at home because I long for it so when I'm away (which, by my calculations, was more often than not last year). So, new year's resolution number 1, no more traveling. Will conduct all travel business with webcam or weird robot that goes to work for you and stay at home in bed with streaming internet television, chips and purring kittens on my head. I apologize for this downer of a post, just, I'm feeling rather rotten right now about leaving and writing about it is sort of curing that awful feeling in the pit of my stomach. /livejournal entry.

taking care of business

Hello friends! I apologize for disappearing yet again. I'm still on the west coast and have been running (or rather, sitting in traffic) around like madwomen finishing up an order due for shipping this friday (super exciting stuff happening over here - will have lots of neat things to share with you upon my arrival home). I will have to introduce you to my wonderful hosts in a separate post and to their jewelry, hat and girly mag collections in another. The weather is unbelievable and though I groaned over the monotony of california weather while living here I'm happy to be away from the east coast for the dreary post-holiday january chills.

I have a question to ask of you! My skin (particularly the chin - allergies and hormone region) has gone bonkers from all the travel and the junk food that inevitably accompanies airport and automobile dining. I'm a big "at home remedy" enthusiast and am curious to know what secret recipes you ladies (and lads) have up your sleeves for skin savers (am familiar with the oil cleansing method and would encourage you to take a gander at it). I keep to a pretty strict regime of all natural products and when I'm following my no corn (TERRIBLE, love popcorn) no chocolate diet I stay pretty clear but right now things are going pretty wild down there (no thanks to my curious fingers). So share! I'll try out the most delicious sounding recipes and tell you all about it!

The above two pictures are part of a collection I've been building up for ebay (coming soon) that I'm super excited about sharing with you! I plan to launch the shop by the end of the month, will keep you posted!
