Fresh and Chic: Gramma Frans Fixins/SBS Teas
As most readers know by now, I love candles and anything that has to do with them. However, I also realize that no two candle businesses are the same and we have another fabulous candle option to present our readers with this week. Gramma Fran’s Fixins is a heartfelt tribute to Sheila’s Gramma Fran. A most beloved woman who taught Sheila about living life from the heart, Gramma Fran’s is centered around her philosophy of life. To visit the Gramma Fran’s site will take you back to a gentler time and the products will remind you of days gone by.
I asked Sheila to share some of her own thoughts about Gramma Fran’s and this is what she says. “I consider myself to be of primitive mind…meaning that my mind is set back to an earlier era when there wasn’t all the hussle and bustle of the busy world as there is today. When life was taken slower and simple things were appreciated more. When I craft I tend to lean toward the prim side of crafting, liking the older looking things and handmade/hand crafted look. To me a primitive craft is something that is crafted from the heart of yesterday and not the machines of today.”
The scents available in this lovely line will indeed take you right back to yesteryear. Choose from many delicious scents such as Dump Cake, Cinnamon Raisin Bread, Clove, Coffee Cake and Gramma’s Cookie Jar. Sheila’s tarts have a very strong throw and are long-lasting as are her candles. New scents include Hugs ‘N Kisses, Sugar Maple, Sweet Dreams and Hazelnut Coffee. Stroll on over to Gramma’s and take a look at all of the wonderful items that can make your home a warmer one.
There’s something for every lover of awesome drinks at SBS Teas. Based in Renton, WA, Rachel Johnston has created a business based on tea and has expanded into other drinks. However, the main focus is on tea and no matter what your taste is, you will find the right one here. Known for custom-blended, high quality tea, SBS is always coming out with something new to wet your taste buds.
You might be overwhelmed when exploring this site, so I would recommend going with a Tea Starter Pack. The Starter Pack comes with (2) of your choice 1 oz. teas, a bag of colored sugar and an 18 ounce Amazing Brewer Set including a drip tray. This will have you hooked for sure. If you are more familiar with tea, I urge you to try the most delicious Rooibos White Chocolate Toffee Tea. It’s caffeine-free and a perfect after dinner drink. The Earl Grey de la Creme tea is amazing as well. Vanilla and cream are added to Earl Grey to give a beautiful taste that even tea drinkers who are not Earl Grey fans will love.
If cocoa appeals to you, SBS has a delectable collection that will warm you up and make the perfect dessert. Enjoy the chilly days of winter with some delicious specialties from SBS Teas.
