That's a great idea, Ruth, long overdue on this group. Your photo is so

sweet, it's easy to see you're crafty ;-) My " organ " . Sigh. Big cabinets

and little refrigerators with boxes inside arranged by types of aromatics -

citrus, florals, woods, etc. I haul them out, array what I need around me,

then back they go. I leave the whole supply out for a few hours, put them

away, then haul them out again for mods. Oh, and then there's the tinctures

in all mismatched jars!

One of these days I'll take a pic and call it " chaos " . Forgot to mention

all the containers full of samples, ruhs, attars, etc that are still being

evaluated. Mercy. I have a lot.

Not all is chaos, however -- I can find something within five minutes of

looking for it, no matter how obscure, or how little the sample. I do have

a photographic mind like that. All my bottles are arranged alphabetically

inside the boxes (plastic boxes with snap lids) alphabetically, with little

round labels on top with the first three letters of the name of the oil--

common name.

I'd love to see a picture of this chaos. It is where art is being

created after all. The shelves in the photo a friend gave them to me

years ago as she had no where to put them and it turned out to be

perfect. It even has two little drawers in the bottom for testing

strips and odds and ends. The website where I saw all the jewelry

benches had all sorts, some were amazing studio like Mandy Aftel has

and some were in the corner of the garage or living room. Here's the

link and you can see what I mean

, can I just say I absolutely love your space!!!

That is something I would love to have. This area certainly wouldn't

support it, unfortunately. But if I ever become a millionaire

that's exactly the kind of place I'd be opening...

Just wow!

yes indeed, it is my shop. kids have such a great time!

speaking of kids, i finally figured out that what i needed to do for

them was dilute the essential oils way way (way!) down, and now they

are liking them a whole lot more. (duh! - why didn't i think of that

earlier!)

Cocoon jessica I love your space. The colour is really nice. It looks

like a lovely place to work and linda your shop looks amazing!

I went to the Burren Perfumery today. It is so beautiful. It is in the

middle of the Burren in Ireland. The Burren, for those of you who have

never heard of it, is famous for its limestone landscape (looks a bit

like the surface of the moon more than earth) and its flora, which is

alpine. It is home to many unusual flowers and some protected species

like the wild orchid. There are no other inhabited buildings in

sight. It is hidden away in a copse of hazel trees. We were surprised

to find the parking lot full, as was the organic resturant. We got to

see the still and the garden and the shop. I had a chat with the woman

who owns it, " " and I told her about this brilliant group. She

said she would join us in the fall when things are not so busy for her.

I posted some pictures of the perfumery in the album....I didn't get

to see the blending room. I wish it were my work space but it's not. I

love it anyway!
