Vital Elements...of imagination had a great Holiday Season.  Business is good and the planning has begun for an even better 2013!  

Vital Elements just got a new supply of hand made papers.   These are so much fun to create with.   Great for art journaling and Artist Trading Cards.   We also got in some book making kits.  

I apologize that it has been so long since posting here.   Between 4 blogs, pinterest which is a huge time suck, 2 websites and my store I have been neglectful of this site. 
I have had beads in my store since I opened and am loving that part of my store.  I have a blog, Beads Friday Harbor that I am going to try and keep updated on my newest arrivals but don't hold me to it! 
Papaya Art is a company created by Anahata Katkin.  It is based in Medford Ore and the owner opened her own store called Papaya Living.  My mom recently visited the store in Ashland and said that it was beautiful.  I have carried Papaya Art from the moment my store opened.  It is the fist company that I ordered from to fill my store. Here is a link to the blog   https://www.papayaart.com/papayaliving    I was lucky enough to take a workshop with Anahata at Artfest a few years back.  
My stores is headed toward the Boho Boutique, I have such great things in store.   Come in and check it out!

It has been a shockingly long while since I have posted here.  My store has blossomed into the best gift store!   I am still not finished carrying all the things that I want to but it is getting somewhere near complete. I have ignored my blog and done all my news on facebook but with the recent bad press and changes to facebook I am going to try and post here more often.

Good Fortune bath and body products including their best selling Lip Scrub, Faucet Soaps, Lotions and Body Oils.  

Paddy Wax Candles   these are eco and green friendly using recycled green wine bottles with fantastic fragrances, these make the best gifts.
