Herban Legend is a socially conscious boutique, carrying handmade and fair-trade items... clothes, bags, accessories, incense, bumper stickers, jewelry and more.

Mayfest Tomorrow

Hey everyone. Tomorrow is Mayfest in Smithville, NJ.

I will be at Underground's table with a $1 sale of all kinds of Underground goodies and also a bunch of scarves, and Rachel's Thread goodies and surprises. Smithville Village is located at 615 E Moss Mill Road, which is the intersection of Rt 9 and Moss Mill Road.

I just checked weather.com and it is supposed to be rainy in the morning, so sleep in, and then come out at about 1 pm when it is supposed to become "mostly cloudy".
I am making lots of little things, so even if you just bring $10 you should be able to go home with something one of a kind that you will love.

see some of you tomorrow.

Events and New Things

I am having a REALLY hard time keeping up with all the social networking sites. So hopefully I can post this here, with links from everywhere else and word can travel that way. If someone knows an easier way to get the word out there to all my (very few) followers, please let me know. I do not own an i-phone, nor do I have internet on my phone, so it's all just the old fashioned computer and laptop for me.



Here is what you need to know.

A. I will be doing the Spring Fair at Lankenau Hospital this Friday May 8th. A great place to pick up a mother's day gift from Rachel's Thread or one of the other neato vendors. Lankenau Hospital is in the Philly area. $10 for every scarf purchased at the Spring Fair will be donated to "Miles of Smiles" toward building an orphanage in Uganda in my Dad's name.

B. I will also be working at Underground's booth at Mayfest next Sunday May 17th. I'll have some awesome new things available at the Underground Booth, some up-cycled and vintage scarves, upcycled pockets, .... cell phone holders ... possibly a beach bag or two ... and possibly some men's ties. Come early for the best selection. Smithville Village - about 15 mins from Atlantic City.

C. I have an etsy store. For any scarf purchase made through May 8th, $10 will be donated to "Miles of Smiles".

D. I am only working Part Time now! I am now off two complete days during the week, which means more new products, bigger selection, etc etc etc. Thank you to everyone at my 'day job' for making this possible.

E. I'm now using 100% recycled bags for my products.

F. My new favorite animal is the Alpaca. Google it if you've never heard the sound they make. It is the most awesome noise. I want to make it my ringtone, so if anyone can help with that you'd be a Rachel's Thread hero.

MILES of smiles :)

2 years of Rachel's Thread, and over 1 mile of scarves made .... so Rachel's Thread will be CELEBRATING during the month of April !! For every scarf purchased in any store or in my etsy shop (which I will be filling up during the month of April) I will donate $10 to Watoto Childcare Ministries for the construction of the Dave Lewis House in Uganda.
