Sea Blossom Soap News

Hurricane Coming?

Hurricane Irene is bearing down on the whole east coast but I' staying optimistic for my craft fair this Saturday in Shelter Island.  It's on the north fork of Long Island, where hurricane Irene is scheduled to hit.  The fair is my last one of the season and I really looked forward to a fabulous day. 

I'll be bringing lots of my beautiful Sea Blossom soaps, lotions and spa products.  Also a plastic tarp!  But here's hoping the fair goes off without a problem.

If all goes well, the storm will veer off to the east but right now the reports are opposite, it's heading west (towards us).  But it is looking like the hit will be sometime between Sunday and Monday so the fair might be okay.  I just hope Shelter Islanders will still be there on Sat. and will come out to shop. 

I'm wishing everyone who is in the path of the storm to stay safe and sound.

Sea Blossom at Westhampton Fair

The Westhampton Arts and Craft Festival was held last week in perfect weather - cool, breezy, sunny - I couldn't have asked for more!  Both Nautical Soaps and Natural Soaps were big sellers, and Lemon Meadow Lotion won out in the lotion department.

 Here I am at my booth! 

Thanks to all who came out - especially my previous customers who came back for more Sea Blossom soap goodies.  It's so wonderful to see you in person!  I do appreciate your continued business. 

Next fair, Pine Walk Fair in Fair Harbor, Fire Island on July 4th Saturday.

 

Sea Blossom at the Hoboken Festival

Here I am at the Hoboken Festival yesterday!  I had a great day - perfect weather.  Big crowd.  Lovely vendor-neighbors too!

 Thanks to all who came out and bought soap!  My new Raspberry Vanilla Swirl Scrub and Golden Anchor Soap were big hits. 

 Look for the Raspberry Vanilla soon on seablossom.com!

 

 

 

Sea Blossom Holiday Fairs

There's nothing I like more than meeting new customers and showing them my Sea Blossom soaps and spa products.  I put so many wonderful skin-friendly ingredients into my products, and it's a pleasure to share the details with interested consumers!  And I learn a lot from questions people ask, whether about the use of the products or the ingredients I use, or anything else.  I enjoy the most those who already appreciate natural soaps and who choose some of mine with delight. 

Last weekend I did a craft fair in Poughkeepsie, next Sat. and Sun. I'll be in Briarcliff Manor.  This show is a new one for me, in St. Theresa Catholic School. I hope the turnout will be good!

After that, I'll be in White Plains, at White Plains High School, followed by Hoboken for their last weekend on December 18-19. 

Come to the fairs!

My Summer's Over - Holiday Fair time is here!!

Just finished closing up the beach house.  It was freezing but thankfully sunny and dry.  Got all the dahlias and cannas out of the ground and pots and took them home for a long winter's sleep. 

While the plants sleep, I am gearing up for holiday craft fairs.  Making some new gift packs of soaps, 2-packs and trios, plus a new Soap Sampler Kit with 3 soaps plus a small lotion in Ocean and Lavender scents.

First holiday fair:  November 7 at Paramus Catholic High School in Paramus NJ. 

Come on by and say hi!

Sea Blossom at NYC Craft Fair this weekend

This Saturday, October 16, is my only show in New York City this year, so I hope you'll come.  It's on 21st Street, between 8th and 9th Avenues, from 10-5.

I'll have all my beautiful handmade soaps, lotions and spa products on display, and the weather promises to be good.  The fair is sponsored by ETSY (the handcraft website) so all vendors are handcrafters, which means there'll be lots of lovely unique items for sale, including mine.  So I'm looking forward to seeing all my Sea Blossom fans and to make new friends.

End of Summer Garden Musings

These are my caterpiller friends - they became gorgeous swallowtail butterflies after eating up my fennel.  I'm happy to report that the fennel, though all its leaves were eaten, survived just fine.  It's now blooming, lots of airy yellow flowers that are providing food for bees.

This summer really flew by, even though the heat was extreme.  My flowers are recovering from the heat -   some bloomed super early and were finished too soon, others, like the dahlias, waited out the hot weather to start blooming now.  But the sun has started to be low in the sky so I can see the slow-down of fall is already beginning.

But Sea Blossom is just heating up.  I've got a big lineup of fairs, starting October 16 in New York City.  Stay tuned for more details!

Westhampton Craft Fair Coming Soon

Come see my Sea Blossom handmade soaps and spa products at the Westhampton Craft Fair!  Say Hi! I will be so happy to see you.

It's on the Village Green on Sat and Sun, June 5-6.

There's nothing like sniffing, trying on, experiencing skin care products in person.  I do fairs to give everyone the opportunity to do this.  And I just love to meet my customers in person and hear what you have to tell me about my creations.

So save the date and take a trip to Westampton to the fair!

Sea Blossom at Hoboken Craft Fair

It's Spring and here we go - it's outdoor craft fair season!  I'm starting off with this Sunday's Hoboken Craft Fair, in downtown Hoboken, NJ.

The weather is supposed to be warm and summery - just perfect!  The heat may be a little tough on my soaps, but it beats rain and wind by a mile!  It should be a great day and I hope you will be there to enjoy it. 

There will be lots of venders and many food booths run by local restaurants - I have heard the food in Hoboken is fabulous!

And of course I'll have all my beautiful Sea Blossom hand made soaps and spa products and I can't wait to show them off.

So, up with the tent, outside with Sea Blossom,and I hope to see you there in Hoboken!

Craft Fair Sunday March 28 in Paramus!

Come see me in Paramus tomorrow, 10-5.  I'll have all my new Sea Blossom products, even those not yet on the website.  And it will be a beautiful day.

See you there!
