Amethyst Cottage - August 2010

August 2010

What's New at the Cottage?

We have lots of new treasures for you, including fun, funky jewelry, knitting swag (even some tiny stitchmarkers for lace and sock knitters) and more! Coming soon, Cheryl of Paper Rabbit studios will introduce adorable, affordable knitting project bags!

What's on Sale!

All handmade soaps from WhiteOak's Herbals are buy 1, get 1 FREE! Just purchase your first one as usual, and type in your second choice in the comments section at checkout. WhiteOak uses all natural ingredients, so her soap is wonderful for sensitive skin. In addition, all mineral makeup trios from Painted Laydies are 15% off their already low price. Trios come with instructions and a FREE dual-tipped makeup brush. If you've considered mineral makeup, this is a great time to buy!

Taking Care of YOU

I'd like to invite you to follow the Cottage blog. Currently I'm blogging about the "40-Day Inner Mean Girl Cleanse". If you're like me, you're way too hard on yourself; I'm taking the risk of opening myself up and talking about my own journey in a very public way. Scary - but worth it if it helps someone else! And speaking of which, check out My Self-Empowerment Coach, run by Jenn Brockman. I recently completed a 12-week coaching session with Jenn, and I cannot recommend her services highly enough. Coaching is one of the most incredible things I've ever done for myself, and I would recommend Jenn without reservation.

New Artists!

Soon to debut at the Cottage are gorgeous handspun yarns from Summer of StarGrrl Spinworks), as well as the beautiful art of Raphaella Vaisseau from Heartful Art. I know you'll all welcome them as enthusiastically as you have our other amazing artists! I'm always on the lookout for new, unique art for the Cottage - let me know if you're interested in joining the Artisans' Co-Op!

"Hope for our Shores"

There's a bit of time left for the charity project for the Gulf Oil Spill cleanup. 10% of the proceeds will go directly from our hands to Emerald Coastkeeper, a local charity that has been in place since 1999 and will be around long after many "BP-related" charities fade away. More info can be found here.

Clearance merchandise

Don't forget our clearance section! Here you'll find merchandise from the Cottage's vending days; we have t-shirts, mugs and more! And if that's not enough, there's a small Scratch 'n Dent area with a few t-shirts that sustained a bit of damage. Most have some fading at the shoulders, but would be great as sleep or lounge shirts. They're $5 each, but there are only a few remaining!
