Dear Ones, She’s here! These beautiful, 100% handmade, concrete moons are now available for purchase in the Home Again Studios shop. Paired with both a citrus-sage tealight (hand poured!) and homegrown, organic sage leaves (fresh from my kitchen-deck garden!) for a mini gratitude cleansing ritual, it serves as a reminder of all we have to be thankful for. This special collaboration means so much to me. One, because the moon is the most divinely feminine symbol of love & light that I know. I recently had two tiny moons, in the phases of the nights each of my children were born, tattooed on my forearm. The kids love it, regularly asking to see “their moons”, pointing out “this one is Saylor’s moon, this one is G-mans!”. It makes me so happy. Two, I’m always looking for ways to stretch my creative muscles. Learning the process of mixing, pouring, sanding, glazing (this is not the real term but Julie said I can call it that, woot) the concrete AND growing/drying my own organic sage was pure, curiosity filled pleasure. And the biggest blessing of working on this fun project has been my deepening friendship with Julie, whom I met during the thick of a tumultuous time (both personally and professionally, if I’m being honest). Our shared experience with a specifically troublesome work scenario could have trauma bonded us over a heavy dose of common “enemy” intimacy, but I am proud to report we both worked to move past all of that and actively chose to connect with one another in much more joyful, supportive ways. (Also, she has two gorgeous Bernese Mountain Dogs, so getting to snuggle those furry hippos each visit was a total bonus. Hi, Holley & Tilley!)… Julie teases me about my favorite scent she makes, still solidly being her Vanilla Pumpkin Marshmallow. She claims it’s a total seasonal vibe that no one else buys past winter, but I wholeheartedly disagree that one can only enjoy it half the year! It fills my home with a not-too-sweet note of freshly baked yumminess. I’ll proudly burn it well into summer :) We hope you’ll consider purchasing a moon for yourself or a loved one, or sharing this product announcement with someone whom you feel might be in need of a little moon magic – you’ll be supporting TWO small businesses in one click! Cheers to a shared love of nature, friendship, and the lights that find us in the dark… “because it is spring; In Deep Gratitude, Trish ( + Julie!)
