Crystal bracelets arrived! I’m making one last big order for the summer for rocks and books. Stay tuned to see what all comes in. These are flourite and malachite “chip” style bracelets. Keep an eye on socials to see all the beauties as they come in

I guess I was in some kind of an absolute MOOD when I placed the most recent book order for the shop... Keep an eye on socials for when these books come in. I sell remainders like these at 40% (or usually more) off MSRP! Also, I have a table FULL of new and used books I haven't catalogued yet, for those of you who want to get first dibs on books before they land on the website. Open tonight at 5:45 pm!!

Swapping out the shop dog tonight! This handsome boi got a haircut and did so well at the groomers, that he deserves a night of pets and scratchies. Bonus: His hair feels like velvet right now cut so short. See you tonight when I open!! Also laid back Bookclub at 6:30 - I’ll have coloring sheets from Talking Animals.

We all knew I was going to order the silly little woofy bois. On the way to the shop from : Yooperlite werewolves, Godzillas, cats and birbs. I threw in a couple extras for fun too! Stay tuned for when they arrive and are ready for you to take home 😍

Need to clear shelf space. All Arber insecticide is $5, first come, first served. This is an amazing product for indoor and outdoor plants. It takes care of it all from spider mites to gnats to aphids using bacteria that is safe for bees! (Just avoid spraying while they’re active on the plants) I use it in my watering can for indoor babies as a gnat preventative. And a little goes a lonnnngggg way.

Should I get this for the shop? It’s a Yooperlite “werewolf,” and I can’t stop giggling at its face. It would be priced at $24ish

Can’t wait to see the pieces everyone has made! So much art to gaze upon for the show tonight. And a pizza truck!! Basil & Banjo is just a couple blocks away slinging up some A+ sourdough crust pies.

A piece I completed for the art show tonight at - come see all of the gorgeous art created by those in the LGBTQIA+ community and their allies. This is my interpretation of the Oak King and the Holly King as snowshoe hares with ilex instead of holly as that’s what’s native here. My favorite little fact about these bun buns is that they change color seasonally, so in theory it could be the same hare. Reception is tonight at 6pm!

Books that rock! Couldn’t help myself… anyway, got lots of Michigan and Superior nature books in yesterday. Come check ‘em out. Lots of very niche topics like boat watching Superior, waterfalls of Michigan and of course, all the agate literature you can shake a stick at.
