I wanted to let everyone know that Lotus Moon Apothecary will be having a booth set up at this upcoming Satin Dolls Fetish Ball. The booth will have lots of shop goodies, as well as potentially a fortune teller who may be working with me that night.
I am also happy to announce that I will be able to accept credit cards at my shop’s booth. Cash is preferred but credit cards (Visa, MasterCard, American Express, and Discovery) are accepted with a 5% fee added to your total purchase amount to cover the transaction fee’s for credit card purchases. Please keep in mind when bringing cash to bring small bills. I will have some change on me but it is hard to make change when everyone only has $20’s on them and needs me to make change. So please plan ahead whether you plan on buying anything or not its better to be prepared then find out there was something you did want later.
If nothing else coming down and taking a look at what I have to offer, maybe get a reading, and enjoy the show. It is bound to be a wonderful event.
The 2011 Satin Dolls Fetish Ball is happening Saturday July 9th 10pm-3am @ Satin Dolls
located @ 4348 w. State Street in Boise Idaho
It is an 18+ event. $8.00 at the door unless you are a goth card holder, then it is $6.00 at the door.
There is going to be live fetish style performances, games, and other naughty performances.
Dressing in fetish style clothing is encouraged.
This is an event you won’t want to miss out on!
Let me know if you have any questions before the event about anything. I hope to see everyone who is in the area and can make it there!

Earth and Sky Feather Earrings
Feathers can be great for magical workings. They can be used to send energy out to do your bidding for spells, they are wonderful for connecting with the air element, and are useful for spirit animal communication with winged beings. The Parrot is a magical totem that teaches us that the world is full of possibility. The role of the parrot is that of a linguist opening communication centers as well as a healer. Because of the often bright beautiful colors they are also often a good totem animal for color therapists.

Otherworldly Oracle Oil in the Making
Started a small batch of Otherworldly Oracle Oil for clairvoyance and divination.
Once finished the oil will be poured into 2oz glass corked bottles and be posted up for purchase.
The oil contains seven herbs and flowers associated with divination and clairvoyance.
I have also added a bit of graveyard dirt I collected to the oil; for an added boost of power as well as a connection to the dead for use in communing with spirits.
Most of the herbs and flowers contained in this oil were wildcrafted from the woods. Offerings were left in return and I never take more than I plan to use in the near future.
This oil has a variety of uses, you can use the oil to anoint your tools for divination and spirit work, for use in rituals. Anoint ones self before doing any acts of divination or spirit communication. The oil can be used to anoint stones, pendulums, boards, and wands… Just to name a few. 
*Allergy warning, this oil contains soy. Some of the herbs contained in this oil have a small chance of causing allergic reaction in certain people. It is always best to do a skin test patch in case of allergic reaction.

Mardi Gras Event Preparation
Since I have been asked to be apart of the Mardi Gras Voodoo Ball @ the Powerhouse in Boise, Idaho. I will have my products set up in a booth for sale there in collaboration with products from other local practitioners. It has been a very busy past couple of days and will continue to be so until after Mardi Gras, since I am working on more than a handful of new products to put up on the booth at the party. I am not going to say what it is I have been making since it is a secret. If you want to know you will have to come down and see for yourself.
There will be tarot, rune, and other types of readings. Belly dancers, there will be a Dance of the Dead, and a Zombie raising! Spells, potions, beads, costumes, masks. It is suggested that you dress up but its not required. Lots of entertainment and drink specials.
It is definantly worth coming down to check it out if you are in the Boise Idaho area. There is no cover but it is a 21+ event.
I should mention that all sales will be cash only since we will not have the use of a credit card machine for our booth. No large bills please as we want to have sales be as close to exact change as possible. We will not be keeping much change on hand for breaking bills. I do not know if there will be an atm inside the powerhouse or not, so I would advise bringing extra cash with you if you plan to purchase any of our wares. Come down for Mardi Gras @ the Powerhouse @ 621 S. 17th downtown in Boise ID on Tues, March 8th! Party starts at 8pm and ends at 2am. There is parking.
Some of the new items I will be posting up online in my shop later. Some of the items I may not be if they sell out and I cannot make more right away. If you want first choice I suggest getting down there because I can only take future orders on a few of the new items. Don't miss out on the fun if you live in the area.
If you have any questions about the event feel free to ask and I will do my best to get back to you before then.

Input wanted on new product ideas
I was considering putting together some picture frame charms that had small pictures of my paintings in them for some of the jewelry pieces I make.
This is an example of the paintings I have done/ am still working on.
The picture clarity is horrid on these but they were taken at night and are progress paintings.
This is 'Funeral Home for the Strange & Deranged'
The top photo is what it is currently at. I still have a few more details to add to this painting but not many.
It is done in acrylic paints on a 12x16 canvas.
the original may be up for sale at some point.
Better pictures will be taken once I have the availability.
If anyone is interested send me a message and I will let you know if it is available for sale.
This picture of the painting shows the color much better but I wanted to add the photo above since this one did not yet have the rest of the fencing done on it.
The original of this painting has already been sold.
This is another painting I have done that I could also potentially use as pictures in the charms.
Cherry blossom tree and Japanese mountain landscape done in acrylics.
This painting I am still working on.
It is on 11x14 canvas and features lily pads in a river, a dragonfly which has a painted body but the wings are real, and a lotus flower which in this painting is only an outline. It is in the process of being finished, its a bit farther from being done but more work has been done to it since this photo was taken.
This is also done in acrylic paints and will most likely be available for purchase at some point.
Red and pink Japanese cherry blossom branch painting.
Done in acrylics.
I would just like to know if the idea of metal frame charms with my paintings in them would be something that would interest anyone since it is a new idea to me.
I am also tossing around ideas for how I want to make my butterfly pendants.
I had planned on putting a real butterfly wing into glass vials,
now I am also debating finding glass frames to put some of them in but I haven't found frames I like yet.
I have wings of all different colors and shapes.
(all butterflies died a natural death, no butterflies were harmed in the retrieval process)
I would like to know how many of you would potentially be interested in such pendants and what wing colors interest you the most so I can get an idea of what everyone is most interested in
Also I am considering at some point making a batch of red rose lip balm.
If you have ideas for other herbal lip balms that you would like to see in my shop
feel free to mention them to me.
I am currently able to take custom orders on many products.
If you have something you would like made, an idea on something (like wanting an oil or kit for a specific purpose but do not know what it should have in it) then you should send me a message with as many details about what it is you are wanting that you have (pictures of similar items or designs are always helpful) and I will see what we can't come up with.
As well as any questions you may have you can comment on here, on my shops facebook page, or to my email @ Lotus_Moon@hotmail.com
I would be happy to answer any questions you may have.

A book that looks kind of like this one, but wont cost me damn near $300 v.v (actually this one is over $300 but they had others for a bit under that* I just need to learn how to work with leather. I am pretty sure they used a metal cut out to put between the book back and the leather and somehow stretched it over the design and maybe used heat? to mold the leather around it. I am not sure really. Though I would love to learn.
