March Shop Update Preview
The next shop update will revolve around the two major products and will be happening on Tuesday March 22nd! I know that I usually have the updates on Friday but I’m trying to change things up and see how it goes :)
After having wax seals in the shop, I decided I wanted to keep this product updated and available always. I kept coming back to feedback from those of you who purchased the wax seal kits that you wanted to be able to just purchase the sealing stamp by itself when a new design came out instead of having to purchase a new kit. My initial idea behind the kit was that the wax sticks in comparison to the stove and the spoon were a more mobile so that you could take them anywhere. The trade off is that they melt a little slower. The benefits of the stove and spoon is that you can melt wax quicker for a larger pool and honestly it’s a bit romantic with the tealight candle :D The tradeoff is that this takes more space and while you can use a wax stick by holding it on the spoon, this way is easier with beads which is then something I would need to offer as well.
What I decided to do is to open up “The Sealin’ Shop” as a part of my shop where you can purchase all these things! Instead of creating a kit, I will offer items individually so you can purchase whatever you need.
Here is what I will offer initially, I will see how things go and amend as needed for future shop updates:
2 new sealing stamp designs - Teararium & Cloud Gaiwan
Wood handles that screw into the stamps- these fit previous sealing stamps from me
2 colors of wax beads sold in packs of 150 beads (bronze beads not pictured)
Stove & spoon combos!
Check out the photos above to get an idea of what will be new in the shop. For the new wax seals, I have created an example of what the seal looks like in the wax. I may also have a couple stamps of older designs like the teapot, floral gaiwan and camellia sinensis.
Below, you can view the fun graphic I created the sealin’ shop too !
The next item is something I’m SUPER excited about. While I don’t plan on adding much teaware to the shop for a while, I am adding one piece that I designed! Ok, so this all started when I got a glass infuser bottle in one of my pusheen boxes. It was a nice, small, glass tumbler with a bamboo lid and a removable infuser. It was so nice when I wanted to take tea on the go and wouldn’t necessarily have time to sit and brew. I also loved how you could remove the basket easily. My only issue is that it didn’t hold enough liquid for me.
Well, I decided to get some printed for the shop! My glass bottles are 450 ml with a removable stainless steel basket and a wood lid! They have a simple print of leaves, teapots and gaiwans on them that will come alive a little when tea is placed in it!
I was hesitant on getting things because glass is very fragile but the tradeoff is being able to see your tea! I hope that you will enjoy these and keep them safe :D
