Holiday Shipping Schedule

March 8, 2010 No comments yet

Just wanted to pop in to let you know that I am going to be closed for shipping over the March break and the week after.

If there is anything that you are going to need over that time be sure to place your order this week, I will be sure that it is packed and shipped before the break.

Here are the dates

Closing March 12.10 until March 28.10

Shipping will resume on Monday March 29.10

At that time I hope to have a few surprises ready for you – some new ingredients, fresh content and recipes here and the old site down/new one up and maybe some new learning resources.

I hope that you are getting the nice weather lately – spring is just around the corner!

Have a Great Day!

Jan

BTW, part of my plans for this year is to expand on the how to guides and do some video and possibly online classes as well.

If you have a preference as to what you’d like to see, just let me know in the comment section below and I will add it to the list.

Every vote counts!

Winter Has Arrived

I probably don’t have to tell you!

I posted a few pictures on my ‘home’ blog  that I thought you might want to see – my son on his first much anticipated ski doo ride of the season on his own ski doo – and my dog – Snoop E. Dog trying to catch up, and a nice looking buck that was outside of my office window yesterday morning.

Good thing my husband came in and told me or I probably wouldn’t have even known it was there!

Here’s one that might be of interest if you like recycled, homemade Christmas ideas.

Why Natural – Do You Know?

November 29, 2009 3 comments

goal_settingI had a very illuminating conversation with a group of women a little while ago that I thought you may find interesting, especially if you are selling natural skin care products.

It was a group of home business owners and we were telling each other what we do.

3 out of 4 of them wanted to know why they would want to use natural products over ’store bought synthetics’.

There was mention that they did ‘kind of know’ that it’s probably a better choice, but really seemed to need it made clearer to them exactly why they would want to choose natural.

I have to tell you  this really knocked my socks off. I had really always had such a strong pull to natural myself that I just assumed that everybody else could see the sense in it – naturally. Mistake number one!

I know obviously that it doesn’t mean everyone uses or even supports the natural ingredients industry but I had no idea the number who needed and even wanted for their own benefit and that of their family to know why.

If you are selling natural, it’s a really good idea to have some information about it. People want to know.

If you are buying skin care products and wondering why natural, off the top of my head I say good health and clean environment.

Maybe most important – preserving the planet that sustains us for our children and all of those who will come after. That’s not a choice, it’s our duty as adults and fellow citizens in this place we all live together on and goes far beyond which is a better wrinkle cream.

I will expand on each of those on this blog, but I’d love to hear what your reasons are.

Are they the same? Are they different?

Maybe putting our heads together and having  a discussion about it may help to give a better answer the next time someone asks you – why natural?
