A Seattle Story of the exploration of scent
The cobalt blue bottle had a hang tag that said, “signed.” Despite being unable to see the faint signature, I was instantly drawn to the stunning beauty and originality of the piece and had to take it home.
A quick image search revealed it was quite the local artisan find! PNW glass artist Roger Vines is known for incorporating Mount St. Helens volcanic ash into his artwork. Turning destruction into a luminous legacy.
Vines discovered that the ash could be used as a flux in his glass mixtures, creating a distinctive texture and luminous quality.
Although I can’t confirm if my particular piece is made from the volcano’s eruption, it’s very possible the iridescent “oil spot” finish you see is derived from the smoke, minerals, and ash. His signature technique layered glass shards that were melted into the surface and worked by hand to create an iridescent, almost otherworldly shimmer.
It’s the perfect little treasure for my studio, and a fitting commemorative piece as Washington remembers one of the most impactful natural disasters that happened in the PNW 46 years ago this week.

What a gorgeous weekend!! And might I add.. I felt gorgeous too 🤗🥰 so don’t mind me taking more selfies in one day than I have the whole year 🤭
Had a wonderful time for the Women’s United 1st annual Tea Party supporting other women and building financial freedom. Such a blessing to participate as a vendor and share my passion and small business journey.
Thank you to everyone who supported the event and spending the afternoon being EXTRA fancy 💋💅👒

✨ What's happening with Palo Santo?! ✨
I’ve been getting a lot of questions about what’s available now, what’s on preorder, and what’s still coming.
Currently available for preorder:
• 15 ml perfume spray
• 50 ml parfum spray
• Roll-on perfume
• Reed diffusers
On Friday, May 1:
• 2 ml perfume sprays
• Room sprays
• Car freshies
• Refills
Instead of rushing the full collection at once, I'm releasing Palo Santo in stages to help process orders more efficiently.
The 8 oz candle is currently being retested and anticipated to return end of May to ensure optimal performance before release.
Thank you for being patient and wildly supportive of Palo Santo coming back! It's been really amazing seeing the connection through scent with Palo Santo 🤗

Huge shoutout to the sponsors and winners of the raffle this weekend for my Palo Santo sip + shop party!
It was such a treat to pop up and share my excitement for the return of Palo Santo. Connecting with you over subtle fragrances and hearing some of you literally only use RCRs is such a compliment and honor.
I hope to pop up again like this in the future! I loved the relaxed atmosphere and ability to chat 🤗
If you snagged a free perfume sample on the street corner, I’d love to hear your thoughts ✨

One of my favorite childhood pastimes was going to my great grandmothers house to look for golf balls and smell the roses dotting the south side of her home.
In her memory, I curated my newest undiluted essential oil blend, Highland Rose, to embody the subtle delicacy of her beloved roses without overpowering your senses.
With notes of rose, yuzu, geranium, clary sage, frankincense, and fir needle, Highland Rose will release end of May 2026 🌹

The sheer beauty of the Earth that surrounds us is immensely soul fulfilling. Sun Top is one of my favorite fire lookouts, not only for its breathtaking 360 degree views, but as one of the few you can drive right up to.
I encourage you to step outside for Earth Day and really breathe in the air and see the life around you. The tiny details from squirrels building their home or how delicate and necessary the morning dew is.
I’ve vowed to keep Rain City Rae's free from GMOs, soy, phthalates, and parabens - ingredients known to disrupt hormones and harm the environment. And with your help, every April I donate a portion of sales to a non-profit environmental organization to help spread awareness and ensure our Earth remains protected for all life forms.
Comment where you'd like to see the proceeds go this year 👇 Last years donation went to the Orca Network. Perhaps endangered species, deforestation, climate change, drilling, oceans, plastics? I want to know where you want to see an impact made. The donation will go to one non-profit anywhere in the U.S.
Thank you for your support and helping me make a difference 🥰
