CRABTREE & EVELYN - IRIS

To honor our new CRABTREE & EVELYN scent IRIS, we will be offering 20% off this fragrance this week!

Exquisitely scented orris, prepared from the root of the iris flower, was highly prized by Renaissance perfumers who used it in their elegant creations. 

In ancient times, orris was mixed with cinnamon and other spices to make love potions. 

The orris is blended with precious sandalwood, sensuous patchouli and a hint of fresh vetiver. 


Vetiver is a tall, dense, wild grass with long narrow leaves and a strand of underground white, yellow and brown roots. It is sought after for its calming, protective, soothing and uplifting characteristics. Vetiver essential oil’s aroma has a smoky woody scent.

We have body lotion, bath & body shower gel, eau de toilette, tripled milled soap, home fragrance spray and scented drawer lining paper.   Come down and take a whiff.  Once you smell it, you'll want to buy it!

Hope to see you this week

New Wood Roses

Okay, so I'm a little out of practice.  We haven't blogged since June 15th and I personally haven't done one since May!  I'm going to start out with something fun and easy. . . our new WOOD ROSES.  These roses are made out of high quality birch wood shavings and come in a glorious assortment of colors. 

All you have to do pick your colors and we can make a 12 bud bouquet~ $6.95 or a 6 bud bouquet~$3.95.  The WOOD ROSES also can be purchased individually for $ .50.  Use the bouquets as thank you gifts, birthdays, school spirit functions, awareness events or just about anything you would use real roses. 

Buy a few to add to your gift wrap- looks great on one of our bags! Add a few to a bottle of wine for a great hostess gift.   Buy one of every color to use as glass charms-everyone has their own or use them as napkin rings- great for a tea party!  The options are endless. 






Hope this inspires you to come down and buy some roses!  Tell us how you use them and we will add it to our blog.
Have a great week and don't forget about our Labor Day Bargain Hunting Sidewalk Sale!
