About Me

I am fortunate so far, in my ability to stay home with my two beautiful daughters and home educate. They are my heart. Other than that, I live a simple life out in the woods. I am surrounded and awed by the beauty, sounds, and smells of the earth. I cannot imagine life for us any other way. I garden, make herbal remedies and ethically wild-craft or trade for what we don't have.
I am constantly mixing, stirring and concocting. I love to be in a perpetual state of creation. I'm sure I get that from my grandmother, as her mixer never left the counter and she was always working on a new recipe. I make a natural alternative to commercial laundry soap, soy candles, perfume and massage oils, a variety of bath teas using both herbal and aroma therapies for different needs, tinctures, herbal vinegars, and healing salves from my own collection of herbs.
My handmade products can currently be found at www.mugwortmaggies.com .
My husband is a graphic designer with a background in packaging for some major brand names. I have him to thank for my lovely self portrait as well as all my labels. If you are in need of design work please drop me a line as he also works from home.
Thank you for taking the time to look through my little corner of the internet. If you are interested in my products please drop me a line and feel free to subscribe to my blog for updates.
