🥧 Fresh from the oven... without the calories. 😉

Baking Days is warm, comforting, and smells just like a day spent in the kitchen with something delicious in the oven. It's one of those scents that instantly makes a house feel like home.

Made with our nourishing blend of lard, tallow, shea butter, olive oil, and coconut oil, this bar creates a rich, creamy lather that's as luxurious as it is long-lasting.

If your favorite memories involve baking cookies, homemade bread, or sneaking a taste of cake batter, Baking Days belongs in your shower.

New Product Spotlight Post!!! Golden Hour Shimmer Oil

What started as an idea for a fun summer shimmer spray turned into something even better: a lightweight body oil that leaves skin feeling soft, looking radiant, and glowing with a beautiful touch of luminous shimmer.

The scent is absolutely summer in a bottle—bright, fruity, and impossible to stop smelling once you've sprayed it on.

One of my testers told me it made her tattoos look brighter and more vibrant. Another said it may replace the shimmer products she currently buys. And my favorite surprise? I've been wearing it myself almost every day, even though I'm not usually a shimmer person!

Shake, spray, lightly smooth, and enjoy that golden-hour glow.

Available in a convenient 2.8oz size and handcrafted in small batches.

☀️ Golden Hour Luminous Body Oil
✨ Soft glow
✨ Lightweight feel
✨ Beautiful summer fragrance
✨ Visible shimmer that catches the light

✨ Love the scent? Golden Hour features the same beautiful fragrance as Secret Garden soap. If you're already a Secret Garden fan, you'll feel right at home in the matching product scent. Use them together for a complete experience!

ingredients: Fractionated Coconut Oil, High Oleic Sunflower Oil, Vitamin E, Cosmetic Micas, Fragrance

A quick note from The Plaid Mushroom

I discovered yesterday that Facebook Messenger failed to deliver a customer message to my desktop inbox. Actually it still doesn't show up from my computer, but I saw it yesterday on my phone app - much later than it was originally sent - and showing "read" so it wasn't lit up as something I needed to respond to. Unfortunately, by the time I received it, I wasn’t able to prepare her Aurora Discovery Set in time for Mother’s Day.

I feel terrible about it, because she had reached out ahead of time, and with plenty of time, and I truly never saw the message.

Moving forward, if you are trying to place an order, reserve an item, or need a quick response, please text me directly at (214) 790-9828. Texting has proven to be much more reliable than Messenger notifications on my computer.

I’m incredibly thankful for everyone supporting my small business, sharing posts, placing orders, and trusting me with gifts for the people you love. It means more than you know.

The good news: the Aurora Discovery Set is staying year-round for birthdays, thank-you gifts, get well gifts, housewarmings, holidays, and “just because” moments.

I finally get to share this with you 💛

Aurora Radiance Renewal Oil started as something I wanted for myself.

I was looking for something that felt lightweight—but still did something. Something that would absorb quickly, but leave my skin feeling soft, smooth, and just…better. Especially in those areas that start to feel a little drier and more delicate over time—like the face, neck, and chest.

So I started blending.

And testing.

And adjusting.

And using it every single day.

What I ended up with is

AURORA ✨
Radiance Renewal Oil

A small-batch treatment oil made with a thoughtful blend of oils that each bring something a little different to the skin.

• Rosehip → more even, refreshed-looking skin
• Sea Buckthorn → softer, more supple feel (especially neck + chest)
• Bakuchiol → smoother-looking skin over time

It’s balanced with lightweight oils so it absorbs quickly and never feels greasy—just soft, cushioned, and comfortable.

A handful of testers have been using it as well, and the feedback has been really consistent—how soft their skin feels, how quickly it absorbs, and how it leaves a natural, healthy glow without heaviness.

It’s simple, intentional, and made to be used—not to sit on a shelf.

Aurora is now available in limited quantities.
