AJ's Country Cottage
This month, special for the winter holiday season, I have put together a collection of brilliant shops and included a mini interview tip direct from the shop owner for tackling the holiday rush. I've specially selected 'Seasoned Pro's,' meaning, they have gone through at least 2 sets of winter holidays and are ready and raring to tackle there third! For any shop owner that has gone through a winter holiday season, you know preparation and a game plan is a must have - So listen up and get those pencils ready!
AJ's Country Cottage is an amazing Etsy shop owned and operated by the talented AJ herself. This is one of the absolute best places to find high scented candles, melts and tarts in soy and paraffin blends. AJ's assortment of scented treats is nothing short of spectacular! I think what I love most about her shop, is that she has made it so easily shoppable with personal touches such as her blend list that helps customers choose from their preference of sweet and spicy, floral, earthy, fruity and more!
AJ's Tip:
"My tip for making it through the holiday season is to make yourself daily and weekly schedules so you can stay organized and on top of things. You can always adjust the schedule as needed. But I schedule every phase of my business -- pouring candles, packing orders, ordering more raw materials and supplies, and even time for rest. Yes, REST! If I don't carve out a little time for myself to rest and reconnect with my family, I won't survive the busy season! So I generally take it easy on Sundays. The post office is closed anyway! :)" ~ AJ
Thank you so much for the invaluable information! Being so impressed with AJ's massive scent list, I just had to include a copy for all of you to check out. Don't forget to visit AJ's Country Cottage, and for more ways to connect AJ:
