Baby Cakes!

I guess I am a typical mom with baby on the brain.  Now instead of hallucinating that some one is calling "mom, mom" sometimes I think I am hearing crying.  I have already gotten up once from this quicky blog post to check out the crying that I am hearing (only in my mind)...I think...or maybe not.  Anyway, I love this cry baby necklace from CobwebCorner.  It makes me chuckle.  Cry babies are cute.

I swear I can still have an adult conversation about something other than baby, but please indulge me as I share my newly created baby cakes treasury with selections from my Unique Women in Business group members.  Visit the treasury on Etsy to click through the individual items.  

Three of the items in this treasury are from Kim of BeautifulBridget in her beautiful photo props shop you can find more items such as these.  All her items are her own original designs or patterns.  She is a true handmade artisan.  This is my current favorite from her shop.  Be sure also to check out Kim's daughter's shop: Miss Indie.  Quite a talented family:

Here is the newest picture of my little baby cake in a basket.  She's actually a very happy baby, not too much crying.

I also included in this treasury my Zi Cao Herbal Salve which is very great for baby diaper rash. Luckily I haven't had to use it for Tessa yet. It comes in very handy though if a baby ever has a rash or hurting bottom from diarrhea.  I have blogged about this specialty herbal salve previously and you can read all about it's many uses including to relieve burns, vaginitis pain, and insect bite itch here here.

Florida has a lot to offer!

The Florida Etsy Street team just keeps getting better and better! Check out these two treasuries from two of our members.

The first is entitled "Summer inspires" by jewelry artist Seaphemera.  I love that she included my Black Charcoal Clarifying Soap in a summer collection, because this is just the soap that I like to use in hot sticky Florida summer weather. The charcoal and bentonite clay in this soap help make it very cleansing.

My favorite item from the treasury is this abstract mosiac mirror from Memories In Mosiacs.

OhBabydotcom is the curator of this "My Purple Passion" treasury.

Included in this treasury is my Black Licorice Tooth Powder in the treasury, which is a big favorite. I just made up a batch of tooth powder samples to send out free with the next 10 orders from my shop.  I love the awesome clamshell necklace that was included in this treasury.

You can check out more items from the Florida Etsy Street Team and meet our members at EtsyFest.com.

Introducing My New Etsy Store and Blog: Delicate Adornments

Last month I started a brand new Etsy store.  The name of the shop is Delicate Adornments and it features light-weight gemstone and glass jewelry that I make.  People have been asking me how long I have been making jewelry and are surprised to know much longer than I have been making soap!  Relatively recently I have settled on this new style of jewelry that I'm very happy with.  The majority of the necklaces that I have been making in recent times are made with knotted silk.  I use silver clasps and French wires to finish the jewelry.  The are perfect for summer or Florida weather when multi-stranded or large jewelry will trap sweat and heat in the body. 

I also have an assorted collection of earrings such as the Ocean Jasper and Rose Quartz earrings below. 

If you would like to keep up to date with my jewelry offerings you can do so on Facebook, or Twitter.  I'm very excited about my new blog, which is evolving content-wise, whereas at the Aquarian Bath bath blog my focus has been the body products, gardening, and herbs.  I'm still considering what different kind of content I would like to include at Delicate Adornments.  I hope you will have a visit and let me know what you think so far. 

Daytona Beach! Eat at Shroomers!

If you in Daytona Beach please be sure to drop in at Shroomer's Pizza from time to time. Dave makes great pizzas, salads, and more.  After I had my baby last month, Dave sent over whole wheat crust pizzas and awesome salad. What a great friend!  This is small family run business in Daytona Beach that you should support. Vegetable scraps from Shroomer's pizza often end up in feeding the compost pile to make rich soil at the Fair Share Garden.

You may remember Shroomer's from the former location off of International Speedway Blvd, just near A1A and the Surf shop. Dave's current location is 521 Ridgewood Ave, Holly Hill, FL.
