Taking a Sick Break

I am feeling under the weather right now. Stuffy nose and watery eyes have been keeping me out of my work area so I closed down shop until I feel better. Then I will do a thorough cleaning of my area before opening. I always like to do any type of cleaning after I get over a cold or sinus infection. Even though I have not been in the area during my sickness or ever before my sickness but I still like to clean everything.

So, once everything is clean just the way I like it I will open back up. :)

Fall, la la!

As of yesterday it officially became Fall! Yippie! I ordered a few scents for the fall but the one I was really hoping to get in was out of stock so I will need to wait a week to order it. It was the Sweet Pumpkin that was out of stock. :( It's very popular and I shouldn't have waited so long to order it. I will put the scents up this weekend.

Also, I really love the new body cream, but it separates so easily that I am going to tinker with the next batch to prevent it from separating. It does that even without me adding fragrance oil to it. It's packed with so many wonderful oils that I am totally okay with it separating since a quick shake will bring everything back together but then it will separate out again and you gotta shake it again before use. Those pesky oils like to be on their own. :) It's okay though, it's totally worth it because even with the separation I am always reaching for it after I get out the bath tub. Personally, I don't think I am going to shake it up anymore and just use it like it is. It doesn't need to be shaken up but some people like uniformity. :) I just like feeling smooth.

New Scents Coming Soon!

I ordered 3 new scents for the fall.

Cinnamon Leaf Essential Oil
Southern Home Blend
Sweet Pumpkin

The Sweet Pumpkin is supposed to be a more fresh and sweet pumpkin then spicy. The Southern Home Blend has base notes of cedar, tonka bean, benzoin, vertiver and black pepper. Middle notes of vanilla absolute, myrrh and sweetgrass. Top notes include turkish rose, italian bergamot and a little cardamon and nutmeg.

I am going to be stingy with the cinnamon essential oil when used in products. I don`t want people getting burned so I won`t be super scenting anything and instead I will use the recommended amount.

I can't wait for these scents to come in because there is so much you can do with these. I also added a Fall List to the front page. They are just scents that would be wonderful or the fall that I already have in stock. :)

Quick Post

Hey everyone!! Well, things have been kind of hectic in my personal life so I haven't been able to buy the stuff I was hoping to buy for Brat's Creations this month. I'm talking about a few new ingredients to ix up some new products with. When sales pick up I will get the ingredients that I need to make some new products.

I am trying to figure out what scents to buy for the fall. I would like to buy some scents for foody, sweet, green and fruit lovers. Hey, there are fruits and veggies that are in season in the fall so why not buy some of those ya know? Fall just isn't for food & spice scents. :)

September is here!

I have a new product up for sale, It's the Silky Smooth Body Cream. I only have a few up for now, but will get more shortly.

I have been thinking about a fall scent list and right now I don't think I will have a fall scent list up, but instead I will just buy a few fall scents to add to the scent list. Right now I really want to focus on getting more products on the site so a large fall scent list will have to wait until next year.

Once I have all the products that I want up I will start doing special scent lists.
Oh remember to take the poll so I know what you guys want ASAP. :)
