Other Good Shopping

Visit the shop, help Rosie raise money to enrich the emotional and spiritual wellbeing of our nation's children. As a former foster child, I cannot stress enough the importance of giving kids hope, of opening the windows of possibility for them to see. It's called planting seeds, and it's really the only thing that ever works.



Beautiful, durable, wash-and-wear natural fiber clothing that just gets better the more you wear it. I have several clothing pieces from Deva and they really are favorites. The natural cotton flannel gown is a treat I look forward to each night; the naturally-crinkled linen dresses are wonderful for travel, just give them a quick spritz of water from a bottle, a good shake and they look perfect without the uncomfortable skinfeel of synthetic, "wrinkle-free" fabrics.



Amazing artisanal fragrances, and hundreds of 'em. Plus, reading the descriptions is a full-sensory experience all by itself. Join the Cult of the Black Phoenix. Resistance is futile.



You just never know what you'll find at AS&S. Beakers, chemistry supplies, strange surplus pieces, scientific experiment kits, educational aids...it's good stuff. Like a school supply store combined with a chemistry lab sell-off combined with an army surplus store, plus the odd electronic component and such. Plus the descriptions are very fun to read. You can spend hours on this site, well-entertained and ever more inspired with possibilities to indulge your packrat tendencies.



Lehman's, established by an Amish family, is a treasure trove of information on do-it-yourself, back-to-basics, natural living, and voluntary simplicity topics. They sell a few very useful and practical items, but really, this site can teach the average person quite a lot. Fascinating.


Attractive, figure-flattering, unique clothing and jewelry. Although quite romantic, they still utilize a lot of clean lines and simple shapes that make their clothing flattering for a wide range of figures. This is a pricey site, but the stuff is mostly one of a kind and a few key pieces can really transform your wardrobe into a deeply personal expression of your aesthetic sensibilities. Some folks dig that.



Good, basic cosmetics for a BUCK apiece! You can't beat that. Good variety of colors available, these contain ingredients a bit better than your average Wet-n-Wild display and they get the basic job done. I will still stick with my mineral foundation powder, but for things like eyeliner and mascara, this is great. It also a place that my teenage daughter can go nuts on makeup without even having to borrow money from Mom to do it.



Okay, I admit it: I have a small obsession with good socks. I'm very particular about cut, fit, materials, and wearing a good pair of socks really makes me feel good all over. I've bought many sets of socks and other leggings from Sock Dreams and have enjoyed them all. Prices are reasonable and they are quite durable if cared for as directed.
