The Plaid Mushroom

Ok, ok, ok! I know I already posted this basket… BUT, there’s something new about it that I wanted to share!

The Cozy Evening Fall Basket can now be customized with your choice of soaps!

When I first introduced the basket, it came with a selection of my favorite fall-friendly scents and then I thought, "Why not let YOU pick?"

With so many handmade soap scents to choose from, you can build a basket around the person you’re giving it to, or around your own favorites.

*Love fresh & clean scents?
*Want something warm and cozy?
*Peppermint fanatic?
*Know exactly which scent your friend always buys?

Pick your soaps and I’ll put together your basket!

The Cozy Evening Fall Basket is $29, and it’s a simple, cozy little gift for someone special, or a perfectly reasonable excuse to treat yourself.

So yes… I’m posting it again, but this time, you get to make it all your own. Of course you may love the pre-curated one, and you can order it like that too!

Contact me if you’d like to customize one so I can get it set up for you. PM or text.

Thank you to everyone who came out to the Fall Cottage Market in Allen yesterday morning! I had a great time and enjoyed meeting everyone. This event is the 1st and 3rd Saturday mornings through November and while I can't make the next one on October 3, I will be back again on October 17th and I can't wait to see you then!

Can you feel it? Fall is just around the corner...Who are we kidding? With these temperatures, it's pretty exciting that Fall IS just around the corner.

The days are getting a little shorter, the air will eventually get cooler, and it's just about time for all the cozy things.

So I'm introducing the newest addition to The Plaid Mushroom's seasonal collection.

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

This week’s spotlight is for the people who like products that actually work without needing a complicated routine.

Meet Busy Body — our handcrafted styling duo from The Plaid Mushroom. 🍄

Busy Body Beard & Detail Fixative was created for the little things that make a big difference: taming flyaways, shaping mustaches, smoothing beard edges, and adding a touch of control exactly where you want it.

Busy Body Pomade takes things a step further with flexible hold and texture for everyday styling without feeling crunchy or heavy.

Both are made in small batches with simple, hardworking ingredients like castor oil, jojoba oil, lanolin, beeswax, and candelilla wax — designed to warm easily between your fingers and apply smoothly.

No overly complicated barber-shop nonsense.
Just solid products for busy people trying to look a little more put together. 😉

Available in 1.5oz tins and easy to toss into a gym bag, work bag, or travel kit.
