About Taylor

I'm a twenty something happy, animal loving, curious experimenter. I love reaching back into history and trying old recipes for cosmetics or foods. I'm constantly asking "Why?" My curiosity has me trying new things. I love taking walks with my dog as well as staying at home to cuddle with the dog and my cats. Some of my favorite scents include Hinoki Wood, Rose Garden, Jasmine and Gladiator.

I love the smell of coffee. I will go read at the local coffee shops just so I can be immersed in the odor. I love using our coffee butter on my skin for that reason. I smell like a coffee shop. 😉 Now, I have had a few requests […]

I would like to ask what got you in the hobby of making your own soaps, lotions, lip balms, perfumes, etc? Do you, or a loved one, have sensitive skin? Are you looking to be more self-sufficent? Or was it that you fell in love with all of the scents? […]

Today I realized that we have used all of our colors of glitter except iridescent! How did that happen? I had to go search high and low for the perfect scent to go with the iridescent glitter. Angel? No, that didn’t seem quite right. In the end I chose Snow Drops. What […]

I love the rich flavor of huckleberries. There is a small local pizzeria here that makes wonderful dessert pizzas. My favorite is one that has marscapone, apples, and a special sugar blend. However, when it is huckleberry season, they will even put huckleberries on it. Yummy. These little berries pack […]

I know we have covered all of the colors of glitter, but the other day I found a bottle of our Green Mango Fragrance Oil. It immediately made me think of our Emerald Green Glitter so we will be making a soap with the Emerald Green Glitter. :-)I really like […]

In the heat of the summer, one of my favorite things to do is to bite down into a large slice of cold watermelon. Yum. I can almost feel the juice running down my chin. Watermelon always makes me feel like a kid again. I remember trying to spit those […]

I had the hardest time finding a fragrance that would match our Denim Blue Fragrance Oil. I scoured the catalog, perused our fragrance oil drawer and was about ready to tear my hair out! I was completely lost. There was no personal inspiration for using a particular fragrance with our […]

Oh my gosh! Christmas is coming! Christmas is coming! I am running around like a headless chicken trying to get all of my stuff done in time. I know Christmas is a few weeks away but if I procrastinate, everyone won’t get their presents until March. Yikes. That is scary. […]

I have always loved Moonlight Path. Long before I ever worked here at Majestic Mountain Sage, I remember going to Bath & Bodyworks to smell all of their products. One scent that always called to me was their Moonlight Path. I loved it. It is smooth, elegant and ladylike. It […]

I love strawberries. I remember as a child riding down the sidewalk from our house to the next door neighbor. They had about a 3 foot slope down from their lawn down to the sidewalk. That slope, instead of being covered in grass, harbored strawberries. I remember heading over to […]

I love poems, stories and song that refer to the land of milk and honey. I don’t know why. It just really talks to the romantic in me. Maybe to me the land of milk and honey means I can do as I wish all day long. Doesn’t that sound […]

I can’t remember if I have told you this before, but I love glitter. Cough. Cough. Sorry, I have a frog in my throat due to all of the cottonwoods flying around. I mean, I LOVE glitter. I wear and play and craft with glitter whenever I get the chance. Giggle. […]
