Holiday Exchange

I've been gearing up for Christmas since September, mainly due to the fact that I've been organizing and making items for the Holiday Exchange that opens at The Homefront Gallery next Saturday. In addition to all the great artists Crystal and I pulled together for the show, I'll be showing some new prints from my Breathing In series, including the one below that I shot in Sweden over the Summer. I'll also be selling a selection of my soap that I make in very small batches. The flavors will be bamboo charcoal soap infused with tea tree oil, peppermint and rosemary and an herbal floral soap with grapefruit and Valencia orange oil extract. These are gentle soaps that are vegetable oil based. They are actually quite labor intensive to produce (I've spent many weekends devoted to these soaps) and will be sold at a super reasonable price. There will also be a small batch of cyanotype gift tags, perfect for those that enjoy topping their presents with something unique. All of the important info below.
