ARTISANS' MARKET in Hallowell, Maine

JOIN us for the Artisan's Market the third Sunday of each month at The Higher Grounds in Hallowell, Maine! Our next show is just a couple of weeks away on Sunday Aug. 21st from 10-3. We have 6 Maine artisans, who have been chosen to participate in the show because of their fabulous-kickin' Indie style, creativity, and wonderful use of material & color.

We hope you'll take a moment to click on the Hallowell link above! Hallowell is home to many antique shops, specialty restaurants, art & gift shops and more. Hallowell sits on the pretty Kennebec River, has a boat landing and a beautiful Rail Trail that spans over 4 towns from Augusta to Gardiner.

Visit our Facebook events page!

Julia from One Woman Studio makes the coolest tote, diaper, backpacks and market bags from recycled feed & coffee bags. We think it's the absolute ULTIMATE way to recycle! We've purchased her totes as gift bags for our friends and they are always much loved!

The twins, Kirsten & Cortney from Indigo Twin make one-of-a-kind folkart sculptures of just about anything you can think of! They do wedding toppers, objects (and my personal favorite), PETS! (I have one of my Lab Abby that is adorable)! BRING a photo in and they'll take your custom order right at the show!

Casondra from Casondra & Co. stamps, buffs, stains & shines up her wonderful collection of handstamped jewelry. Her look is very trendy, yet will never go out of style! Her Mom from Vega Glassworks will be showing that day as well!

The Sweet Mojo girls met Kendra from Whimsy in Brunswick at a show, and fell in love with her whimsical work! Skirts, aprons, home decor, she does it all, but I've got to tell you, we LOVED those skirts with the birds on them! Made for all shapes and sizes, come in and try one on!

We had seen Judy Babbin's work online for many years, but was BLOWN away once we finally got to meet and see her work in person! beautiful, chunky, earthy, rustic.... these are the words I think of when describing Judy's jewelry. I'm saving my pennies for a particular ring :)

OF COURSE the Sweet Mojo Girls will be there! Don't forget that we are discontinuing our DAY DREAM & FAINT SHADOW scents, so anything we have left will be disounted at the show! We handcraft Sugar Scrubs, Body Oils, Salt Soaks & Perfume Oils FROM SCRATCH using our own unique scents.

remember to SHOP LOCAL~SHOP HANDMADE!

Refocus!

So we have been slowly working towards the wholesale end of things here at Sweet Mojo. We will continue to sell retail, but we'd love to sell our products at quality shops here in Maine. We've quickly realized that we need to "slim" down our scent line a bit if we'd ever have to meet the demand of selling wholesale. Picking two scents to discontinue was very hard for us, so in the end we chose the last two scents that we created, as the other 10 have been selling steadily for us the past year. Both of these scents are light, uplifting & quite lovely! And who knows, we may bring them back again in the future. But for now, in our destashing frenzy, we are selling any product that contains the Faint Shadow or Day Dream scents for 30% off!!

CLICK HERE ---> TO FIND ALL OF THE DICOUNTED PRODUCT, FLIT BY SWEET MOJO AND SIMPLY LOOK FOR THE 30% OFF IN THE TITLES! <--- CLICK HERE

The Body Oils are just $9.80 with discount! (reg. $14.00)

The Perfume Oils are only $8.40! (reg $12.00)

Look for these discounted scents in our Sugar Scrubs too!

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!

An "uplifting" contest!

I think most of us agree... especially those of us that live in a cold-climate with lots of snow and short days, that we all tend to get a little out of focus. Some get down in the dumps & struggle to pull themselves up and out of the fog.

We think aromatherapy is a wonderful way to lift your spirits & clear your mind, and what could be better then simply rolling on a lovely scent that makes you think of sunshine, blossoms & citrus? We have two such scents that we think you'd like!

SO, we thought that a contest was in order!

Just go to our FACEBOOK PAGE and tell us what YOU DO to lift the winter blues and you'll be automatically entered to win our drawing for a Sweet Mojo Perfume Oil in your choice of our "Sunbeam" or "Under The Sun" scents.

Under The Sun: Invigorating Pink Grapefruit blended with cool Lime & warm Mandarin
Sunbeam: Sweet Orange blended with delicate Neroli & smoky Vetiver

Contest winner will be announced Weds. March, 16th

We want to share with our Sweet Mojo friends a little taste of Maine.... here's what the cool kids do! This video was shot by Jessica's brother-in-law Scott & edited by her sister-in-law Beth.

ENJOY!

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!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Who doesn't love a good sale? Especially one as sweet smelling as this!

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.
