Have you ever wanted to learn to make your own dipped beeswax candles? I would love to share this long standing folk craft with you! Workshops are in the coming weeks and now is the time to sign up!
πŸ•―οΈ
THIS SUNDAY 10/26, I will be teaching alongside who will share with you the craft of weaving a hand broom. 🧹
πŸ•―οΈ
Nov 1, I will be teaching with who will guide you in making your own ceramic candle holder.
✨ πŸ•―οΈ ✨
In both workshops I will guide you in dipping your own beeswax candles. You will make and take home a pair of standard tapers and a twisted double wicked candle, along with the skills and knowledge to make more on your own if you so desire.
✨
While dipping,
✨I will share with you the absolute alchemizing magic of the honeybee and how they turn pollen and nectar into the potent beeswax we will be working with.
✨we will explore the long history of candle making and how many of our ancestors have been practicing this dipping craft for thousands of years!
✨ & I will of course also share with you the wonderful health benefits that beeswax offers both in candle form and other forms such as skin care.
✨ πŸ•―οΈ ✨
I hope to see you there! Comment if you plan to join! & Please, reach out if you have any questions.

It’s pumpkin season, y’all.
πŸŽƒ
I would love to pour up some beeswax pumpkin candles for you. You can order on my website for delivery, or local San Marcos pick up.
πŸŽƒ
I truly think they make the perfect seasonal decoration. A celebration of the season that can last through November, and instead of packing it away and taking up space, you can simply use them for light bringing warmth to your home.

Last week my husband and I took a short trip to the historically rich town of New Orleans for his birthday. The entire town felt like a step back in time as we walked the cobble stone sidewalks anywhere we needed to go.
🌿
My favorite thing was our trip to the pharmacy museum. The whole of it, Cody says greatly resembles my work spaces at home.
🌿
A look into a 1800s pharmacy, when pharmacist were really just well trained herbalist.
~It definitely had a darkness to the history that I learned more about, as most of us know of the old world medical practice.
~But, my bright eyes were mostly focused on taking in the old tools and methods they would use for herbal medicine, many of which I still see in the traditional practice of herbalism today.
~I loved the historic soda fountain, where people use to gather for medicinally rich drinks, the times before soda just became a sugary health draining beverage.
~The humble and wholesome display of a midwife’s bag, and the curious displays of traveling medicine bags really caught my eye.
~ & seeing that pharmacist (aka the towns herbalist) crafted the cosmetics and natural pigments for the town as well. Again, something you see still today with those called to the herbal path of crafting with plants.
🌿
Tradition, and finding those common lines we share with the past always fascinated me and draws me in. Though, I am even more grateful now for the modern comforts of today like for my high powered vitamix, easy access to sterilization of my tools, and today’s great research of herbal safety.

If you have been eyeing any of the summer collection, now is the time!
🌞
Photo of me in the garden in early summer of 22’ to hopefully get the attention of you and the algorithm. The garden is looking a lot more crispy than this in these late summer days.
🌞
As always, your support means everything to me. Every purchase you make from Buzz goes towards my food and bills (vs paying for a CEOs second home when you shop larger corporations), and supports me in continuing this work + you get high quality, lovingly made herbals and beeswax candles, so everyone wins! πŸ’›

All profit of sales from this weekend, July 18-20, will be donated to the Kerr County Flood Relief Fund to support the communities affected by the tragic July 4th flooding.
🌊
Living in a neighboring river town and seeing my share of river flooding over the years, this tragedy has cut deep in the heart. I hope this little act can allow both you and I to give some support to these neighbors while you purchase something that can support your personal self-care, or to share with a loved one.
🌊
I found myself at the river to seek healing for the grief that the flooding river ways caused.
✨
I have been finding myself in tears almost daily following the devastating floods that took so much from neighboring hill country communities.
It’s the strangest thing, to feel so much greif over an event, while also having a quite deep down gratitude for answered prayers for our waterways to be filled after years of drought…
✨
These waters that offer so much joy and healing can also be so destructive and powerful. ☯️

I pray for those effected by this tragic event, and have so much hope in my heart that our communities will learn from this and be able to better prepare for the floods that inevitably come in this beautiful river carved country.
May we all find some peace, and some ways to support one another in these times. πŸ’›

This is where the Yarrow in my healing calendula balm comes from. I have been tending to the Yarrow in my garden for the last 5 years and over the last two years it has kindly given back enough Yarrow flower and leaf for me to dry and and infused for my healing balm I share with you.
πŸŒ±πŸ’šπŸŒ±
The garden also gives the Mugwort in the juniper and lavender balm, the Rose in the Holy Rose oil and lip balm, and various herbs I blend into teas such as Motherwort, Vervain, Primrose Lemon Balm and more. This year I am working toward tending to more abundance of Lavender, Lemon Balm, and Tulsi among others.
πŸŒ±πŸ’šπŸŒ±
It is always my priority to grow what I can, source from high quality small US farms what I can’t, and look to other organic options only when necessary. The quality and medicine carried in freshly dried herbs is always so wild to me. You can see it in the color, smell and even feel of the plant material. I will try to share a side by side photo comparison with you all soon.

I hope to see you this Saturday!
I will be at the San Marcos Plaza Park with my hand crafted goods available 10am-7pm, just steps away from a jump in the river (you know I will be taking advantage of that many times through the day!) I am booth 81 at the top of the map in 4th photo!
🌊 πŸ§œπŸΌβ€β™€οΈ 🌊
There will be blues music on the green lawn, food trucks and many inspiring art vendors to browse. 🌊 πŸ§œπŸΌβ€β™€οΈ 🌊
Wear your mermaid best, but keep the plastic based glitter at home (don’t worry, you can get mica glitter from me!)
🌊 πŸ§œπŸΌβ€β™€οΈ 🌊
A Mermaid and repurposed trash themed parade to celebrate our river and the preservation and respect of her will be going through town 10am-noon, see the third photo for the parade map!
🌊 πŸ§œπŸΌβ€β™€οΈ 🌊
Any questions I can answer before Saturday?
