Valentine's from Primal Elements


Now that the Christmas shopping season is in full swing, it's easy to forget that Valentine's is right on its heels.  It's not as big a holiday, for sure, but you still don't want to be frantic for new product as it approaches.  That's why it's a good idea to get those orders in now!


Primal Elements has solutions for what to get your sweetheart on the big day.  The Color Bowl candle (top photo) is a 9.5-oz patented blend of soy and vegetable wax enhanced with translucent gel pieces that create a stained-glass effect when burning.  The "I Heart You" candle (middle photo) is a 9.5-oz candle of soy and vegetable wax.  Both candles retail for $20. 


The company is best-known for its original soaps that are available either in loaves that you can slice in your store (it's a great ta-da for your customers) or in pre-sliced shrink-wrapped bars.  Their soap formula is vegan and sodium lauryl sulfate free.  Bars retail for $9.

New Jewelry from Vance Kitira



Vance Kitira expands his collection of women's accessories - which already includes handbags and scarves - to include jewelry.  It has long been Vance's dream to design and produce original jewelry creations, and now he is realizing that dream by offering uniquely "Vance" designs.

Sourcing throughout his native Thailand, Vance found semi-precious gemstones (quartz and citrine), freshwater pearls and mother of pearl that he combines with golden brass for a wide array of beautiful handmade earrings.

The photo above is "Whisper" from the mother of pearl collection. 

All ear wires are rhodium or sterling-plated (if silver) or gold-plated (if gold).

Each earring pair is presented in either a bag or a box (pictured above) made of Saa paper and printed in a beautiful Thai motif.
