My dear friend, Christine Sever, has launched her new business creating unique crafts and fun items designed to make you smile! These fun items can be customized for your home, garden, work and special events! Many of my blog readers will recognize Christine from the MANY recipes she shared with my newsletter for many years! Please join me in congratulating her and supporting her newest endeavor! Thank you!

From her website:
My journey began on Long Island, NY, but life led me to Minnesota, where I’ve called home for the past 30 years. After dedicating over three decades to the hearing aid industry—helping people experience the joy of sound—I felt inspired to bring a new kind of joy into people’s lives. In 2022, my husband, a proud U.S. Air Force veteran and native Minnesotan, and I launched Minnetina, a name that reflects both my own story and our home in Minnetonka, Minnesota.  Every piece we create is hand crafted with care, designed to bring warmth, happiness, and personality into your home. Minnetina isn’t just about decor—it’s about designing and crafting meaningful pieces that make every space feel special, just like the journey that brought us here.

The Well Massage & Spa Wellness Studio

We discovered this Spa and Wellness Studio a couple of years ago during our annual trip to Beaver Bay, MN. It was the best massage we’ve had in a long time! I’ve been using their hair oil for over a year. It contains lavender, cedarwood, rosemary, and avocado, as well as has the added benefit of improved hair strength and shine! It pops on and off their website so be patient, or perhaps call them if you don’t see it! It’s part of their hair and scalp treatment. I also love their sprays AND their teas! Yum! This past year I added their “Franky Face Collection” and really love it too! Frankincense is a great essential oil for skin! 

Yog Sadhna

This is the website of one of my favorite teachers, Indu Arora. I’ve written about her before here. I always introduce her by saying “I love and adore her.” Enough said. She is the one I go to for acquiring deeper wisdom for myself through her classes, Ayurveda therapy, and yoga therapy. The marma stick and “Yogi’s Glow” mask I’ve talked about with most of my students are on the “For your Body” page.

Enjoy!
