http://twitter.com/seawillowherbsMy Background:
Hello! My name is Jennifer Braverman and I have been working with and learning about herbs for over five years. I grew up in the mountains of Western NC and have attended classes at the Appalachia School of Holistic Herbalism in Asheville NC and Red Moon Herbs in Black Mountain NC. I now live in Northeastern NC, twenty minutes from the Outer Banks and the ocean.
My Process
All of my products have a few simple ingredients and lots of love, care, and time put into them. I carefully make all of my products in small batches. Time is spent gathering, drying, picking, melting, and mixing ingredients together. I love working with my hands. I love the feel of tacky beeswax and smelling its wonderful sweet honey smell.
My Materials
Many herbs grow in Northeastern North Carolina. I prefer to use herbs that can be found locally. Chickweed, dandelion, honeysuckle, rosemary, lavender, and roses are all examples of theses kind of plants. Only ingredients that are organically grown or conscientiously wildcrafted by me go into my products.
My Inspirations:
The people in my life, plants, the ocean, movies, music, books, and video games; most everything in my life are my main inspiration. I seem to be always filing things away that I have heard, read, or seen and saving them for later use.
I am offering a little healing and stress relief with a lot of fun and whimsy thrown into it.
Healing can begin with the smallest step. It is a stressful world out there so relax and smear a little salve on.
