the new year

I'm so happy to join you again here after a string of quiet days. Hope the new year is off to a wonderful start for all of you! I've been diving deep into a few new projects for the coming months, doing plenty of reorganizing behind the scenes and reflecting on the year newly behind us. This past year was both challenging and beautiful - I lost my beloved TriBeCa studio, but found a new workspace in the Garment District that I am, indeed, grateful for. It was such a pleasure to have so many of you come to visit me there during our holiday open hours. This year also brought me some beautiful new sources for locally grown organic botanicals and domestically grown and cold-pressed organic plant oils, including sunflower oil and jojoba oil from small family farms in Michigan and Arizona, respectively. It's truly inspiring to see the care that goes into producing these raw materials, and I am so delighted to be able to share them with you.

So far, I can tell you that the coming year will bring some long-awaited simplifications and packaging updates at the studio, and perhaps a new botanical fragrance or two. And stay tuned for a special midwinter limited edition mini kit filled with all things orange blossom. I hope that it will be just the thing to lift the cold, damp fog of February.

Sending you restful wishes for these heart-of-winter days...
