Sometimes the path to understanding what your vision is takes time. We are no exception to this, but I’m glad I finally have some clarity in the present direction of Canela Bath n Body.
While I expect this vision to be modified as time goes on and our product lineup changes to fit with consumer needs, I’m just tickled pink about our upcoming release.
Before we get to that though, I wanted to share why I chose the name Canela.
Canela is Portuguese and I believe Spanish for cinnamon. I have always loved the smell of cinnamon, but cinnamon essential oil can be so irritating to skin and to your sense of smell. My ambition was to create a product line up that reflects that deep warmth the scent offers. That’s not to say that isn’t the only I want to make, but the search to find a blend a fragrances that wouldn’t discolour the end product has finally been accomplished.
When we launch our new collection and seasonal offerings in the next few weeks, our vision will be the most cohesive product lineup we have ever had.
It’s been a most fascinating process to get to this point. The journey has been ripe with many disappointments and a handful of successes, but most of all, I am most thrilled with all the lessons learned. We’re entering our 5th year as a registered business and are finally making progress. Better late than never, my friends.
With that out of the way, let me talk about what to expect in the coming weeks as we prepare to relaunch our web shop, Mother’s Day offerings and preparing for this years summer market season.
