Happy Halloween From Indie Junction!!
Happy Halloween Everyone! We are going to take a departure from our usual Indie Junction Featured Artisans Series and take a look at what kinds of Halloween type items pop up when we do a search of our Indie Junction Community!!
Let's start with this wonderful Felted Soap in Sage Lemongrass by RawOlive, a shop that features natural bath and beauty products made with olive oil! This moisturizing, hand-crafted soap wrapped in naturally anti-fungal wool to create an exfoliating, fragrantly lathering, bath bar that lasts much longer than a regular bar of soap. When done, reuse the pouf by making a small slit and slipping your own bar inside.Earthy and herbal at its best. The sage in this soap mellows out the bright lemongrass to create a beautiful foodie soap blend. Perfect for the kitchen sink.
And it looks like a pumpkin!!
This Big Black Bat Stained Glass Halloween Decoration by Ogden Arthaus made the rounds in treasuries this Halloween season and with good reason! He's not only beautifully made...he's got an adorable face, don't you think? "This bat is ghoulishly adorable. With an imposing wing span of nearly 8 inches and a 4 1/2 inch body from ear to tummy, he's got fright he hasn't even used yet! Watch out! Created in the traditional Tiffany Style of stained glass, I have cut, ground, foiled and soldered him in my dark and creepy home laboratory. His little face was created with glass paint. How utterly Frankensteinien of me."
Our very own Plump Fairy came up with some Ghostly Tatted Jewelry for the Halloween season. "BOO!! Express your Halloween spirit with lacey tatted earrings and necklace. The earrings hang from sterling silver wires. The Ghost motif necklace hangs from rings attached to satin ribbon with adjusting chain and lobster clasp. Both are tatted with fine cotton thread. The necklace is approximately 21 in/53.34 cm in diameter adjustable down to 18 in/45.72 cm. The earrings hang approximately 2 in/5.08 cm from wires." Talk about beautiful and scary at the same time!!
Here is one of several Halloween themed soap sets by Creativexpressions76...it's a Set of 12 White Mini Skull Sets where you can choose your own fragrance! What a wonderful gift! "What does 1 plastic Halloween cup, 4 Halloween rings and 12 skull soaps have in common? They're all to DIE for and are included in our mini skull soap set!! The 12 soaps weighs approx 8.5 oz. and you get to choose your fall fragrances from 9 different fragrances. Each bar of soap is individually wrapped in biodegradable shrinkwrap. Glycerin is a humectant and draws moisture to your skin, allowing it to remain hydrated and soft. It is especially good for sensitive skin. Glycerin soap does not contain synthetic ingredients that will cause skin irritations. It keeps your skin looking and feeling healthy and soft."
Here is an Original Oil Painting of Funny Cat Ornament by A F Studio! "This tiny painting is full of personality and wit. Original oil painting by Andie Freeman of one of my favorite quirky items. I got this Halloween ornament about 15 years ago at a craft fair. It is creepy and goofy and kind of cute at the same time. So, this painting on a 5 inch square linen canvas can grace your home with the same quirky personality. It is 1.5 inches deep and requires no frame. The beautiful linen canvas is exposed on the sides and parts of the front. It comes with a hanging wire attached, and a bio. It is signed on the front and titled, dated and signed on the back."
Indie Junction's Resonates made this great Going Batty Necklace! "From our Repurposed Collection :: We love finding fun, spooky Halloween decorations, like this silly black bat flying on our repurposed necklace."And I could go on and on...this is just a small sampling from all the wonderful and creative work you will find from our Indie Junction Artisans!!
Hope you enjoyed our tribute to Halloween this week! If you'd like to know more about our Indie Junction Artisan Community, just go here!

Wednesday Window Shopping on Etsy!
Well, I was without internet access for most of this week so Wednesday Window Shopping on Etsy will appear on Thursday in some time zones...but here it is!!
I love handmade soap! I could do a million posts just on Etsy soap shops, but here's three to start with!! I have bought from each of these wonderful shops and can vouch for the quality of their products and the uber customer service I received!
The first is Hilary's wonderful shop, A Slice of Delight! I had a hard time choosing between all the wonderful products available in this shop! I even went to the Twitter Universe to help me with my decision, which was lots of fun!! Here's the blog post that reveals what my final choice was! Wonderful soap, beautiful packaging, and excellent customer service!
Take a look at the underlying philosophy of Hilary's products!
PRODUCT PHILOSOPHY -------> I enjoy designing soaps that are bright and cheery, ruffle your senses, fun to use and makes you feel good (or someone else if you give it as a gift).
ECO-FRIENDLY PACKAGING ------> Soaps are packaged in cello bags certified biodegradable and compostable. The ingredient tag and raphia tie can be recycled.
PRODUCT INGREDIENTS -------> Product ingredients come from reputable soaping industry suppliers. One supplier is so local I am able to ride my bicycle to pick up the products :+}.
Make sure to follow A Slice of Delight on Twitter and check out her Facebook Fan Page!
Another shop that I really love is Bella Fresca! Bella Fresca means "beautifully fresh" in Italian. Here you will find freshly made, beautifully crafted products for the bath and body: soaps, creams, lotions, lip balm and gloss as well as pretty wrapped gift sets ready to give for holidays, birthdays, thank you, hostess, party favors or a treat for yourself! Indulge in the wonderful fragrances that infuse every product and are made with the finest ingredients available. I bought some bubble gum soap for my little niece Mollie at Christmas and the owner of the shop, Susan Forti actually helped me develop the idea of a bubblegum theme for Mollie. I hand knitted some variegated pink face cloths that really looked like bubblegum to round out the theme! The packaging was beautiful. Here's the blog post I wrote about my purchase from Bella Fresca! This soap to the left would make a wonderful gift but in my mind, I'd like to build an entire bathroom around it! Black and white tile...but I digress!! For updates and specials, follow Bella Fresca on Twitter!
The third shop is Batty's Bath! Here you can indulge in natural, handmade bath and body products! Enjoy the benefits of shea butter, olive oil, and vegetable-based glycerin soaps. Moisturizing body butter, nourishing shampoo, repairing conditioner, soothing lip balm, exfoliating scrubs, luxury body polishes, relaxing bath bombs and so much more will have everyone feeling totally pampered!
Batty's Bath is a relatively new shop, and when she was promoting the upcoming soap shop I was waiting with anticipation, but you may recognize owner Jamie Sabot from her other shop, She's Batty Designs, which is a really fun shop offering eco-friendly, unique handmade greeting cards and adorable accessories that everyone will love!
I purchased one of Jamie's Bitty Batty Shea Butter Handmade Guest Soaps! It is wonderful soap, beautifully wrapped, and I received excellent customer service! I wish I had gotten a picture of it but I gave it as a gift right away...again with some hand knit wash cloths and scrunchy!!

You owe it to yourself to check out all of these wonderful shops...and I must add that they have many other product lines such as lip balm, bath and beauty, etc. I just happen to be wild for soap!
Hope you enjoyed this late addition of Wednesday Window Shopping on Etsy! Thanks for reading!!

I Love My Soap From A Slice of Delight!!
Here's some great information about her wonderful company:
PRODUCT PHILOSOPHY -------> I enjoy designing soaps that are bright and cheery, ruffle your senses, fun to use and makes you feel good (or someone else if you give it as a gift).
ECO-FRIENDLY PACKAGING ------> Soaps are packaged in cello bags certified biodegradable and compostable. The ingredient tag and raphia tie can be recycled.

I had a hard time choosing between all the lovely soaps and I even enlisted the Twitter Universe to help me with my choice! Here were some of the contenders:
Yellow and Green. Fresh and Clean.
This Lemon Verbena is a delightful blend of Italian Bergamot, Lemon Verbena, Primrose and Violet. It is then rounded out with Amber, White Musk and just a little drop of Peppermint for an energizing surprise!
Well, as you can see by the top photo, I chose Petals of Spring soap! Lovely fragrance...like having a garden in the palm of your hands! AND as you can also see by the photo...Hillary gave me samples of my other choices and they and they are rich and creamy and smell out of this world! And thanks, Hillary, for the jelly beans...probably so I wouldn't be tempted to eat the biscotti soap!!
You owe it to yourself to take a look at this wonderful Etsy Shop! You will be glad you did!! You can also follow A Slice of Delight on Twitter and check out her Facebook Fan Page!
