Kristen and I are busy, busy this time of year–making soap, cutting and sewing, stringing beads, trying new ideas out on each other. This is great weather for soap making: low humidity makes for excellent drying. It’s also a wonderful time for me to be tucked away in my sewing room, looking out at the snow and the busy bird feeders, listening to my music and stitching away.

New Look for a New Year

After trying several formats for a website, I think we’ve finally settled on one. This one is supposed to be easier to use, maintain, and update. We’ll see.
If you haven’t been introduced to Green Circle Grove before, here’s what you might like to know: our business evolved from our love of scent, color, texture, and the natural world. We considered various mediums through which to express ourselves, but after visiting a Renaissance festival we decided to begin with soaps and fabrics, both of which allow for so many variations, combinations, and interpretations. Since we began working together in November, 2003, Kristen has also begun working with beads. Using Bali and Sterling silver, semi-precious stones, wood and/or vintage glass, she creates wonderful necklaces, earrings, and bracelets that follow our stringent standards for form and design.
