What's NEW in the New Year? Just about everything!

Now that we are taking a short break for the holidays to recharge our batteries and take advantage of this special time of year to see family and friends and just generally have a relaxing holiday.  I've had a little time to reflect on what I would like to do with SO many ideas I've had since August but no time to put them into play.

Well, now's the time to make a few changes!  First to change are the WEBSITE and ETSY Shop.  Some changes will be subtle and some will be much more noticeable.  In the ETSY Shop, I'll be mostly just updating photos and descriptions and shipping charges (some were not up to date since the Post Office raised their rates last year) but also adding some new things and just some general cleaning up.

The more noticeable changes will be on the Website.  I've been keeping a close eye on what scents/fragrances sell for what types of products.  Because of the data I've collected regarding my own line, I've decided that the best way to display products is to have them listed individually for every product in each category.  THIS way, certain scents that sell best as Soaps and Deodorants won't be available as Roll-On Perfumes or Body Mists, and items that sell best as Body Mousse and Silky Body Lotions won't be available as Shaving Bars or Whipped Soaps.  Now these are just examples and I did not compile a list of anything just yet officially.  I'm going to start by listing what I have IN STOCK and adding on from there.  This will be better for inventory and special scents especially and for seasonal products as well!  But DON'T WORRY - I'm not getting rid of any of the current scents - but I will be adding a few of the old ones back in!!!  I took a poll not to long ago of what scents you missed the most and it was clear to me that some fragrances needed to be brought back but maybe just not in every product! 

I'm sad to say that there will be a slight price increase for several products beginning February 1st.  I noticed in October that several of my supplies had gone up in price but I wasn't sure how it affected the current pricing because I had not had time to sit down and go over all the costs - which I will be doing over the next week. 

Those are just a few of the things I will be trying to accomplish over the next week or two.  So, if you are reading this feel free to post here or on the Facebook Page of what scents you'd like to see in what products!!
