We are super-psyched to part of this fabulous "Girls Night Out!" event at the Children's Discovery Museum"!

We are donating a portion of our sales to the museum, as are all of the other vendors participating. Beverages & snacks will be served at no charge!

We say, "Come find your Mojo ladies!"!

A "sweet" little break

We can't believe it's been over a month since we've posted! Well, we took a two week vacation over the 4th holiday, and each of us got some rest and relaxation after a busy 19 months. We love our Sweet Mojo, but we both needed a recharge, as we've been going full steam ahead!

Jes spent half of her vacation at home, puttering, cleaning, destashing and gardening. The other half was spent on her FIL's boat in Downeast Maine with her hubby.

Jolene stuck around the workshop and soaked up every bit of her gardens & home! The Sweet Mojo workshop is right next to her house, and she was not supposed to set foot in it, but I'm pretty sure she snuck over there once or twice ;)

We hope you had a wonderful holiday as well!

We are having a 20% off sale for our Facebook fans, so swing on over, LIKE us & look for the coupon code!

Artsy Affair in Brunswick, Maine

The Sweet Mojo girls are SUPER-PSYCHED to be involved with the Artsy Affair in downtown Brunswick, Maine this Friday night 6/3 from 5-9pm.

Some of our personal favorite artists will be there and we're allready thinking that we could get a jump on Christmas shopping :)

One reason why we are excited to be selling at this show, is that it wont be your typical old-fashion craft fair. The artisan's that have been chosen to show are top-notch Indie designers & artists. Also, adding to the overall grooviness of the show will be food by Scarlet Begonias & Byrnes Irish Pub, along with music by Gruvenwood. Dance, shop, eat & be merry. Now that's a Sweet Mojo attitude all the way! Of course, we'll be bringing all of our products for your sniffing pleasure. We've got some new products that we'll be unveiling at the show.

Also, Sweet Mojo partner, Jessica Moreau-Berry will be bringing a small selection of her Junque Revival jewelry. Jessica has written for Belle Armoire Jewelry Magazine, and books such as "Exhibition 36" by Susan Tuttle and "A Charming Exchange" By Ruth Rae & Kelly Snelling. All of her pieces are made from recycled metals and ephemera.

We hope to see you there!

Love is a beautiful thing......

The Art: The Sweet Mojo butterfly is from a larger piece of collage art on canvas made by Sweet Mojo partner, Jessica Moreau-Berry. Jessica entered a calender contest by Cloth Paper Scissors magazine in 2010 & the piece, "Queen of the Tulips" won a place in the 2011 calender's month of May. Not long after, Jes & Jolene decided to start Sweet Mojo Apothecary and after weeks of trying to find the right design for the labels, Jes & Jolene, on a whim, decided to play around with photographs of the art, and the labels came to life. Now Jes has played with her original art again, and has added a heart and text "sweet" to make a special pendant just in time for Valentines!

You can purchase the necklace, or find it in one of our Gift Sets for a special price! Sold exclusively at our Etsy or ArtFire shops, either way.... we hope you'll agree that Sweet Mojo products are truly an indulgence for the body and soul!

Shows, shows and more shows....

We're hosting another Artisans' Trunk Show at The Higher Grounds in downtown Hallowell, Maine. The last one was oodles of fun, being that we had live music and an extremely groovy atmosphere. Most of the vendors were busy and had a great show, including ourselves! The bar is open and we'll be serving drinks for folks of all ages. Hope to see you there!

If you're around the Gardiner, Maine area this coming weekend, you can find us at the  Laura E. Richards School Holiday Craft Fair to be held on Sat. Dec. 4th.

a website of our very own........

Our friend Hope Wallace of Paper Relics came to Maine to visit for a week to show us how to run our very own website!! Because she is a dear blogging pal from way back, she gave us the royal treatment, and taught us how to make headers for each website page, thumbnail photos & gave us oodles of info that we NEVER would have been able to figure out!

Because she knows me so well, she knows my style, and therefore Jolene's, because we've always had the same feelings about how the look and feel of Sweet Mojo should be. When I mentioned to her that we were doing a website, she very quickly sent me a designed page, and we loved it... it was so Sweet Mojo! We speak the same language using very professional terms like "grunge it up a bit more" and "that butterfly-thingy for the shopping cart".

It's not quite finished, we will be working today and tomorrow on the site

(if we can remember everything that was taught to us)

Feel free to take a peek!

We hope you'll consider signing up for our newsletter in the right hand column. We'll let you know when the site is finished, share unusual Sweet Mojo tips, and fill you in on upcoming craft shows and specials.

Black Forest

This morning I woke up and realized, "hey, I'm COLD!" It's been a humid summer here in Maine, and this crisp, clear and sunny morning makes me think of fall.... and our Black Forest scent. Black Forest is warm & robust, tranquil because of the lavender and uplifting because of the sweet orange. The frankincense oil adds warmth & depth to the aroma and stays with you all through the day.

We blend our handcrafted scent into all of our luxury-vegan products.

Divine Sugar Scrub
