Hey everybody. How are we doing? I'll be honest, it's been a bit up and down over here. It's been hard to focus on work with the whole... *gestures broadly at the United States*
But! I do have some new things to share.
First and foremost:
The Summer Box, Aphrodite's Dream, is now available for purchase.
It features a hair and body oil made with intent by newcomers Bohemian House, loose leaf tea by Dryad Tea, delectable floral lollipops by Leccare, Perfume by Nui Cobalt Designs, luxury glycerin soap by Paintbox Soapworks, hand-drawn stickers by Sunfeather Studios, and a candle and lip color by yours truly.
Additionally, I'm launching the Pride Candles! A little late this year, but better late than never!
HOMOPHOBE REPELLENT (Rainbow flag): A tropical melange of mango, passionfruit, mandarin orange, pineapple, and a splash of champagne.
K THX BI (Bi flag): A sweet and irreverent mix of rosé paired with wild berry gelato.
GENDER EUPHORIA (Trans flag): Blueberry hibiscus cream soda.
And finally, let me share with you how I've been coping. I've been painting a lot! As some of you know, one of my hobbies is watercolor painting. To that end, I've been painting a lot of protest pieces. I've scanned them and printed them on semi-gloss sticker paper, then topped them in vinyl to make them water-resistant. They are available in 3" and 5" sizes in our new Sticker Collection!
And finally, a couple tidbits of news:
* We are soon to be voting on the 2025 Fan Collection. If you have scent suggestions and want to vote, please make sure you're subscribed to Sihaya & Company Fans on Facebook!
* If you are local to me in MD, I will be vending at Backwater Books' Summer Solstice Celebration in Ellicott City on June 21! I will be doing rune readings, selling stickers, painted orignals, and a limited number of candles. Hope to see you there!
Warmly,
Chris
