The Soap Opera!

No, I'm not referring to the "stories" on the television in the afternoon, though, those can be fun too!  I'm talking about this fabulous shop, The Soap Opera! 

The Soap Opera is a great, one-stop shop for everything you could imagine: amazing soap scents that will have your partner panting, silky lotions and wonderful hair products.

I'm probably partial, but I love the sound of this Berry Bewitching bar!

You want something more exotic than bar soap?  How about a delicious sugar scrub?

The Soap Opera even has you covered when it comes to your laundering needs!  Eco Friendly Laundry Soaps will keep your colors and whites bright, as well as soft!

Aislinn's Journey

If you have not stumbled across Aislinn's Journey yet, then you really need to add it to your blog list.  And at the moment, she is running a wonderful giveaway for her fans!  

She will be giving away three different items, including a gorgeous choker

a bell anklet I have drooled over for a long time 

and a beautiful copper bracelet.

Happy New Year & Changes!

The last couple of months have been extremely hectic, with the holidays, commissions, travel and working at my day job.

That being said, I apologize to all of my friends, peers and those that follow this blog that I have not updated on a more regular schedule.  It is something I am going to strive to change this new year.  I have a lot going on in my personal life, but I am going to strive to schedule something each week, at a minimum, for you.

Another change that will be occuring in the new year, I will no longer have a shop on Artfire.com.  I will not go into reasons why, besides that there is a change in business policy that I have a very strong belief.  I cannot align myself with a company that I disagree with or feel has acted unprofessional.

On that note, I will be maintaining my Zibbet shop, which I plan to reopen at the beginning of the year.  I am going through my inventory, taking stock and will be uploading new items.  I also started my online venture on Etsy and might reopen that shop, but at the moment, it is unknown.

In the meantime, stay connected to bewitchingdreams.com for more information!  I will keep everyone posted on my plans, new projects and ventures in the near future.

Happy New Year!!!

Whimsical Wednesdays

Wednesday is here again...and I don't know about you, but I am eagerly awaiting the weekend!  In the meantime, I wanted to show you a few of C. Newcomb's Woodworking designs.  Chris does an amazing job, taking a simple piece of wood and turning into a masterpiece.  From pens to signs, awareness ornaments to miniatures, there is something for everyone on your gift list.  

Who would not love their own handmade wooden pen and pencil set, made from apricot wood?

What's that you say?  That special someone has lost all ability to write due to the advancement of computers and texting?  Say no more!  They can sit leisurely at their desk or on the couch and massage away their cares with a handmade Tambootie Foot Massager!  

Or for that special person, you could give them the most unique razor they will ever have the pleasure of owning, a handturned turquoise acrylic Mach3/Venus razor with chrome accents.  

These are just a few of the many items Chris has in his store.  He also has ice cream scoops, business card holders, Breast Cancer Awareness ornaments, birdhouses, chess set and much more.  Stop by his shop today to start your holiday shopping early!

Where does the time go?

Wow, I cannot believe that October is already over and November has started.  I have coworkers who are counting down the days until Christmas and the holidays already!  

For those of you that have dropped by my Artfire store, or notice the Rapid Cart on this blog does not have my normal items, it is because I put my shop on vacation for the next week. :)  My items will be in an upcoming craft fair in Tennessee and I am busy getting everything ready for it.  I plan to reopen my shop next week, so please check back.

Also, if you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at bewitchingdreams@yahoo.com.

Have a wonderful day!

Whimsical Wednesdays

Welcome to Whimsical Wednesday!  This week, I am featuring Polymer Clay Smooshers guild member Perrie from Mortimer Inc.

Perrie has some beautiful creations, such as this Black and White Leaf Pin that features Black Pearls.  This brooch is both elegant and breathtaking, complimenting any ensemble.

These faux Ivory earrings are absolutely stunning and would look fabulous for any occasion, though I keep envisioning wearing these to a museum gallery.

This Victorian Lady Pendant will add style to your outfit, bringing a touch of class with modern style.
