Spyrit Dancers' Musings On All Things Wiccan

We originally only had the euro dropper caps on our 5ml bottles, but I’m finally sold out of the old caps and now our 1oz / 30ml bottles now all have euro dropper caps. What makes these better?

When I screw on the cap, it actually locks down and creates a tamper-proof seal. Then, when you pull the cap off for the first time,you will see it has a dropper cap in the neck of the bottle, making it perfect for shaking out a few drops to dress your candles with, anoint yourself or an item. Nothing worse than buying a bottle of expensive oil, and dumping a big bunch out by mistake!

This is a few of our 1oz oils, visit our eBay store for the entire list! (Note I have a few on auction ending today that have the old style caps, but once those are gone the old caps will be no more)

I have the balance of the old style cap bottles I still have listed up in my Etsy store. I haven’t gotten my online store updated with new pictures, but hope to get those all changed around by tomorrow.

eBay was driving me a bit nuts, as it seems to be most people want alot for a little money. So when I saw someone mention etsy, and it was all handmade items, I decided to move my store over there. Today I’m listing up items, which takes awhile, but here are a few examples of my listings.

Check them out!

I was glad that I finally sold the first of them. I’ve used them on and off for years, but it is nice to have someone else buy them.

I’ve been very busy between getting my work done on the websites I build, getting stuff up on eBay (my online store is suffering, I only have a few things live so far) and cleaning out a storage room of 5 years worth of stuff, sorting, and getting ready to sell it at a garage sale.

Life sometimes is a bit overwhelming with projects, and lately, it feels that way. Sometimes, I just have to sit down, relax, take 3 cleansing breaths and meditate…if only for a few moments…to get my calm center back.

I spent all yesterday afternoon and into the evening making up my first batch of ritual oils. It was a slow process, as each had to be individually mixed and charged. I made enough oil for about 3 – 6 .5ml bottles, so I have some on hand when it sells.

As I was mixing each oil, I visualized the essential oils as I added in bringing the properites of the oil to help whomever used it to reach their goal. Then, I infused magickal energy into each one when done.

I plan on infusing them with energy all a 2nd time as I sell them, just to give them a little extra kick.

Today I have to take pictures of all of them, write eBay auctions, and get them online. I also need to start getting items posted up on my website too. That tends to suffer because I always concentrate on my eBay store first.

I’m pretty excited about the oils. All are mixed in a base of Jojoba oil. Why Jojoba oil? According to Scott Cunningham, it was his oil of choice. See Jojoba oil is actually a wax that is liquid at room temps. (and it is solid when I store it in my garage shop in the winter, lol) It is made from the Jojoba plant which produces a bean pod and when heated, the beans cause an oil to be secreted. The desert peoples of Southern California and Mexico had long been using this oil to treat skin conditions and cuts.

Because it is a wax more than an oil, it does not go rancid like other oils will, giving it a very long shelf life. I’ve used Jojoba oil in my shea body butter mixes for years, and also use it when I make lip balms. It has been my oil of choice for many things. It has been a great day.

One product I’ve been excited to make is ritual oils. I had essential oils on hand to make oils that I had used, but I wanted to expand my line to come out initially with 20 different ritual oils.

Monday, my bottles came in. I ordered .5ml bottles that have a tamper proof cap, that has a small, I don’t know what to call it, plastic tail? that can be used to dip in the oil, and give you a few drops of it.

Then today, my essential oils came in. So tomorrow, I start mixing up my oils.
