Changes for The Scented Djinn Etsy Apothecary in the New Year

After a series of prophetic dreams (yes, I do believe in that "stuff") directing me to make The Scented Djinn Etsy Apothecary just that-- an apothecary-- I have slowly but surely been doing so. I'm removing all the liquid parfums and placing them on ArtFire in an all indulgent luxury layout, while at Etsy I'm sticking with my roots. Where I began in this journey which led me to where I am today was as a magic maker, a novice root worker, someone who put a little mystery of the mojo into the soaps and body oils and elixirs along with the plant healing and aromatherapy. Those were the good old days.

In the next few months watch for the phasing out completely of the liquid high end parfums on Etsy, and the incoming-- what? Wholesome, natural, high quality, simple skin care products, solid aromatics, and hand distilled hydrosols.

Some Change at The Scented Djinn Apothecary

For some time now I've been struggling with keeping up with the Etsy shop, teaching online courses, writing tutorials, teaching in-person classes, and generally trying to figure out what you might like that I can make and sell. Sort of beating my head against the wall over it, actually. I haven't had a lot of opportunity to make something that I truly love, which explains why I can't keep stocked up on things in the shop -- no two soaps are ever the same, I throw some things together willy-nilly in the hopes you will like it when I'm not even 100% sure I like it! Well, no more of that. The products I contribute that I've felt a real connection with thus far are a few different bars of soap -- anything patchouli, the poppymint soap, which is a big favorite (of mine), kyphi incense of all stripes, hydrosols, and on the rare occasion, when I'm being true to myself, a perfume -- like Parma, or Atay. A few skin products I really dig, like the Strange and Unusua...
