Indigo Fragrance — Fragrance Oils On Etsy
March 3, 2011
Having been in the fragrance business for nearly twelve years, I would consider myself a scent connoisseur- which is my really nice way of saying I am a fragrance junkie.
My husband and I started off making bath and body products many, many moons ago using purchased scents from a variety of local suppliers and on the internet. Our bath and body business grew wildly but despite the fact that we were buying our fragrance and essential oils in bulk, we knew we could really reduce our bottom line if we went straight to the manufacturer instead of using “middlemen”.
After many years of buying from a local manufacturer and building a personal relationship with the owner and his wife, we were in the “right place at the right time” when they retired and decided to sell their business. When we expressed interest in purchasing their company, they bent over backwards to help us acquire and learn the business. Having no children of their own, they were pretty generous in the sale which included all of their current stock and their manufacturing equipment. Even with their generosity- it was still a small fortune- so we set forth to find a way to stand out amongst other manufacturers so that we could make our new endeavor succeed.
After years of doing craft shows and interacting with people in our bath and body business, we decided that our new fragrance manufacturing business would cater to small businesses and local crafters. Our clients are fiercely loyal and offer us countless referrals for our products and customer service. We welcome custom orders and develop or blend custom scents for customers near
We entered into the etsy craft market (IndigoFragrance) in January of 2009. At first we offered fragrance oils and products made from our fragrance oils such as reed diffuser oils, scented sachet envelopes, etc. It was slow at first (as breaking into any new community can be) but before long we started getting more and more repeat business from customers recognizing a good product when they tried one.
As of today, we have over 1,649 positive feedbacks on etsy from our satisfied customers and it is our favorite place to sell ! Our customers appreciate our undiluted premium fragrance oils, our super fast shipping, and the free samples we provide to regular customers.
We also sell our fragrances across the web and to internet suppliers that many of you probably buy your fragrance oils from today. We are always happy to create fantastic fragrances for crafters and artisans everywhere !
Fragrances we listed today alone include: Vanilla walnut, fruit slices, lavender, pomegranate frosting, jasmine, dominatrix (leather), clean cotton and cedarwood vanilla.

A Beginner’s Guide to Reed Diffusers
August 4, 2010
Even the most beautifully decorated home is not as welcoming to guests if it does not have a pleasant scent. There are many choices available for adding fragrance to a home, from air freshening spray to scented candles. However, if you are looking for a safe and long-lasting way to add relaxing, enjoyable fragrance to every room of your home, the best option is a reed diffuser.
Reed diffusers use the simple concept of evaporation to move the fragrance from scented oils into the air. A glass vase or bottle is used to hold several ounces of oil, and a number of long, thin reeds are placed into the neck of the glass container. Because the reeds naturally wick moisture throughout their length, they will pull the oils up from the reservoir and slowly evaporate them into the air. This allows the slow diffusion of scent into a room over weeks or months using only a small amount of fragrance oil.
Because reed diffusers use no heat or flame, they are safe to use continuously as a part of your home decor. Many people who use reed diffusers use one in several rooms of the home, allowing them to create a scent-scape of different aromas throughout the house. For example, a clean cotton scent is a welcome addition to a bathroom or laundry room, whereas you might want a warm, comforting scent in the family room and an invigorating citrus scent in the kitchen.
If you are getting started with reed diffusers for the first time, you should consider purchasing a set which includes the reed diffuser base, reeds, and fragrance oil. You can then use the vase or bottle that you have chosen with a variety of different scents in the future. One thing to note is that you will need to replace the reeds from time to time, as they will eventually become less able to wick the oil from the base. Fortunately, the reeds are inexpensive and easy to replace, and the same reed length will work in a variety of different diffusers.

Gary Coleman Dead At 42
May 29, 2010
Gary Coleman, 42, the diminutive, wisecracking child star of the sitcom “Diff’rent Strokes,” died Friday at a hospital in Provo, Utah. He suffered an intercranial brain hemorrhage after falling at his home in Santaquin, Utah.
Utah Valley Regional Medical Center spokeswoman Janet Frank says life support was terminated and Coleman died at 12:05 p.m. Coleman was hospitalized Wednesday after falling and suffering a head injury at his home south of Salt Lake City, according to family members.
Mr. Coleman was 10 when he stepped into the national spotlight in 1978, playing the witty, lovable Arnold Jackson on NBC’s “Diff’rent Strokes.” The role was created for him and made Mr. Coleman the best-known child star on television for the eight years the hit comedy was on the air. He played the younger of two orphaned African-American brothers adopted by a white Manhattan millionaire after the death of their mother, the rich man’s housekeeper. The show was a comedic showcase for Mr. Coleman, who looked younger than his actual age because his growth had been stunted by a congenital kidney condition. His signature line, “Whatchoo talkin’ ’bout, Willis?” became a national catchphrase.
His adult life was plagued by domestic disputes, health issues and legal troubles. Despite his real-life travails, Coleman will remain an ’80s TV icon, a quick-witted boy whose onscreen charm lives on in television syndication.
