SLOW DOWN 🐌 limited edition C&C tee

https://www.circlesandcyclesalchemy.com/shopall/p/cc-merch

this soil brown long-sleeve features custom artwork by my talented & wildly creative mom, . Inspired by Polish folk art, observing nature's patterns and sitting in a garden amongst the bees, butterflies, plants & microbe friends. Noticing something different & exciting with every turn.
🍄‍🟫🐝 🦋 🌱
An ode to slowing down...

100% cotton locally screen printed & embroidered ~ supporting four small businesses in one!

Perfect for layering or wearing on its own, this tee invites you to reconnect with nature while embracing a slow pace.

Each tee comes with two artwork stickers ~ the "ASAP" snail that inspired this whole project 🐌 and a folk bird carrying plants & seeds.

This project was nearly four months in the making, and I couldn’t have asked for a better collaborator. 🤎 I’m so excited for you all to experience the beautiful artwork and the intention woven into this piece. For the first C&C merch, I wanted to create something more than just apparel ~ a piece of wearable art carrying a mantra I think we all need from time to time... to slow down & embrace the snail pace 🐌

limited quantities in each size & no restock 🌼

Hello FB world and new followers!
My name is Isa ~ the founder & maker behind Circles & Cycles.
What started as an ecological gardening business and love for the botanical world has evolved into a thriving health & wellness brand focused on the science & tradition of herbalism.
Almost all C&C products start in the soil. Every spring, I grow hundreds of organic plants from seed and throughout the growing season, I harvest each plant at peak potency (flowers, roots, leaves etc). I use these plants to make topical extracts, teas, tinctures, hydrosols (I'll share my distillation set-up soon!) & more.
I am currently pursuing in a degree in Biochemistry to better understand the chemical processes happening within our bodies, in the soil and in plants to create better harmony and balance for all. I've studied traditional healing modalities, like Ayurveda, for years and love finding ways to merge modern science and traditional methods.

🌀 Visit www.circlesandcyclesalchemy.com to peruse current offerings. There are "shop updates" with new products and restocks every month or so.

🩵 2024 best sellers were Leland Blue tallow balm, Re/Newal plant based retinol and Celestial Chamomile facial oil

👩‍🌾 Starting in the spring, I vend at the Northport and Glen Arbor farmers markets - as well as some local art markets. My plant dyed textiles are a huge hit at in-person markets!

🙋 Curious about offerings, process, or what C&C is about? Drop your questions or comments below. Will be sharing more on this page!

Blend of garden grown golden Calendula flowers, native swamp Rosehips from bushes I planted near our spring creek, organic Rose buds/petals and wildcrafted Pinyon Pine resin (traded with an herbalist out west).

A marriage of wild, cultivated and sustainably sourced - as always.

Photos taken pre-extraction. Will be made into an all around topical staple I am currently calling Every Body Balm.

Savoring the every last drop of color from the gardens 🥲

I planted glass gem corn 💎🌈 late this year and didn't give them a lot of attention but they still came through looking cute & colorful :')

Tucking the gardens in for the fall/winter, it was the most abundant season yet
