After a walk and a forage of freshly opened daisies, we have a new salve on the horizon. Wasn’t expecting to find anything so a nice surprise. Was just reading yesterday how good daisies are for the skin, so I will look forward to that one being ready in a couple of weeks 😁

I’m getting there, finally finding my own style rather than trying to copy other ideas. Still loving the blue and white as you can see, but trying to give it some form.

Two little Robins appeared at dusk yesterday, having a quick dunk in the pond and checking it out. Nice.

If you like the look of my handmade salves, I now have a shop page for them for UK shipping only at the moment.

More to come as they are made, depends on what nature provides, but we have calendula coming soon and geranium shortly after 😁

We’re two years in
To the twilight zone
It’s getting quite tense
And close to the bone
So many unsure
Of just what to do
While inch by inch
They tighten the screw
Creating their stage
Where all does seem lost
Ignoring the logic
No care for the cost
Throwing the souls
Off the ship out to sea
The darkest of waters
Where none shall be free
But a beacon of hope
When not all stepped aboard
They followed and waited
Becoming a horde
A thorn in the side
Of this dastardly plan
To change what we are
And see if they can
Hook us all up
To their digital world
Where we are all connected
And will be controlled
~
We’re halfway there already

Decided to try another one, this time using the dandelion and rosemary infused olive oil.
Here is my first Dandelion Salve
And the lavender infused coconut oil. Adding in essential oils now I have them, orange and lavender for this one.
32g dandelion olive oil
12g shea butter
10g beeswax
1 tbs coconut oil
10 drops of each essential oil
Melt together in double boiler, add essential oils in after all combined, then pour into containers.
