Catch Up with Tracy
Hi Everyone!
It's been a while since I did a blog and with Amanda away for a bit it seemed like a good opportunity to catch you up with what's going on in Spray HQ. It's probably no surprise to hear that we are making preparations for Christmas. There I've said it! The "C" word, I usually ban any mention of it until the beginning of December in my house! But we do have to take shipping times into account at this time of year. You can find the last posting dates at the end of this blog but please bear in mind, if you are outside the UK, customs agencies and postal services are much busier at this time of year and often have backlogs. So if you want to order for Christmas gifts I wouldn't leave it too long.
You may have noticed that we have a new section in the website called "Stocking Fillers and Gifts". Amanda asked me to curate a collection of suitable products for you and if I do say so myself, I think they are pretty special. We have some old faithfuls in there of course, our beautiful candles for instance, all specially made for us with soya wax, cotton wicks and pure essential oils. Check out the reviews, they really are gorgeous and make a unique and luxurious gift.
We also have these faceted garnet bracelets, stunning aren't they. We only have a limited quantity available. They are £16. A great gift for anyone with a birthday in January too.
We had so many requests to bring our "Essence of Christmas" spray back so here it is! Just £11. This time decorated with snowflakes and "handmade with love" charms. It literally smells of Christmas and is energised, rather appropriately we thought, with the Joy and Christ Light crystal essences. Buy as a gift to share with friends or use in your home to ensure a harmonious yuletide!
These are fun, I love them. Hati-Hati macrame angels, handmade in Indonesian mountain villages. They make a thoughtful gift for friends and loved ones. Hati-Hati means "take care". Just £11 each, we have a Rainbow one (pictured below) and a Harmony one. They come already gift boxed with an explanation leaflet.
These are fun too, smudge beads. The same principal as smudging sticks but in a large bead! You light it and sit it on it's little dish and off it goes, smudging your space. The delightful aroma of Sandalwood will then pervade your room too. What's not to love? There are 5 in a box and just £2.50 for something a bit different.
We have a special offer on our last remaining few pashminas as well. These beautiful, hand dyed pashminas were specially commissioned for us and designed by Amanda. Each has a gold thread embroidered Metatron's cube in one corner. They are made from merino wool and silk. The price has been reduced to £85 (they were originally £111). Not only that but you also get a free spray - Flame Attunement and Connection with the Archangel Metatron one and a Bronze Earth Star with Archangel Sandalphon. The pashminas are beautifully packaged in tissue paper in a bespoke gift box embossed with the ACC logo in holographic silver foil. It's something a bit special that you won't find anywhere else. Here is Amanda, beautifully modelling the Metatron one.
These little angel pendants are also lovely. They come complete with either a waxed cotton black cord or a silver plated chain - choose what you'd like at checkout. Just £5. Presented in an organza bag. We also have a very limited number of sterling silver chains available as an option too. They will be sent in a gift box - these are £15. The type of crystal is a lucky dip but we will try to give you your choice if we have it. There are amethyst, rose quartz, clear quartz, sodalite, red jasper, tiger's eye and opalite. Model is wearing rose quartz on a sterling silver chain.
We have put together some incense sets as well, like the photo above, you get a box of lovely smudging incense (a cross between incense and smudge sticks), a colourful soapstone incense holder and a free tumble stone. All packed in a cerise pink organza bag for £15. The bag is tied with an angel charm handmade by us. The incense holders are also available separately for £13.99.
This is our new tote bag! 100% cotton, printed with the ACC logo on one side. We are so pleased with these. They are £7.50 each or 2 for £10. The discount is automatically applied at checkout. They come in white, orange or royal blue and here you can see them being modelled by Lin, Michelle and Tracy! In the rain! I can't actually decide which colour I like best. The logo really pops on white of course but I love the other 2 as well. Tough call, good luck!
Do you smudge? If you don't already it's a really good thing to get into the habit of. Our new selection of artisan smudging sticks makes it a piece of cake. All just a bit different from a plain old white sage stick, these have petals, crystals, palo santo sticks etc attached to them. We have 4 or 5 different ones. It seems a shame to set fire to them really doesn't it?! This one is Love Spirit Sage. All are just £8.88 each.
We also have some beautifully fragranced smudging incense. At just £3.33 a box. The sticks are much longer than usual and are a cross between smudging and incense. The box is really pretty, embossed with a gold pattern. We have it in wild rose and white sage.
Also back by popular demand are these LED colour changing light display stands (£7.50).
They have a mirror top with a coloured LED light in the centre. If you place a clear or semi opaque crystal on top it lights it up in different colours. This one is showcasing our selenite unicorn horn (£12.88). They run on AAA batteries which are not included, sorry, due to rules about shipping.
These little organza bags of tumble stones are just £3.33 each and make a brilliant stocking filler. Chosen at random from a selection of crackle quartz, bronzite, ocean jasper, zebra jasper, aventurine, tiger's eye, kambaba jasper or amethyst. Each bag is tied with ribbon and a silver charm. And yes they do come with the meanings included as well.
So these are the new additions but why not have a look at the whole collection and see if you can get some inspiration this year - either for gifts or to treat yourself. Go to the "Other" menu on the home page, click on the drop down menu and you will see Stocking Fillers and Gifts at the bottom. We may be adding a few more things from time to time so keep an eye out.
On another note, Friday 15th November is/was a Full moon in Taurus. A great time for us to let go of out dated patterns and habits that are no longer serving us. Staying in our comfort zones is, well, comfortable! But it limits our spiritual growth, stops us living life to the full and stepping fully into our power. This full moon helps us see with clarity and gives us the strength to release anything that might be holding us back. It's helpful to get out into nature to ground, engage with your senses and most importantly, don't forget to BREATHE! If you need some help getting out of your comfort zone call in Kali Ma, she is the best ally you could have for this. It might not be an easy or a smooth ride but it will get done! We do of course have a Kali spray you can use as well. One of our absolute best sellers and my own personal favourite too. Just a little heads up, we have limited stocks of Kali available at the moment so if you can't live without her either grab one while you can!
To end with, here are the last posting dates both for the UK and for international customers. But please get your orders in as soon as possible to ensure you get them on time. We will be working up to Christmas Eve and return on Friday 27th December.
