My love language is "I propagated one for you." That's basically a bouquet, right? 🌱 #plantpropagation #plantpeople #plantlover #gardeninglife

Her 2nd first bloom of the season 🌸 Planted this Paul Neyron rose in honor of my sister Christi when she passed in 2019, and every spring (and every "second spring" after I cut her back) feels like a little visit. 40+ blooms back in early spring, cut back in June, and now she's blooming again. Missing you, always. #rosegarden #gardentok #cottagecore #gardenlife #memorial

Herbal Skincare & Organic Sugaring, Straight From a Tennessee Homestead

Hi, I'm Jen — a Certified Master Herbalist and Naturopath, and the one-woman force behind JBHomemade Sugaring & Skin Care. Everything here is handmade in small batches on our 180-acre homestead: botanical skincare crafted from herbs I grow or source from local Amish farms, and organic sugaring paste made the old way, with just sugar, lemon, and water.

This blog holds 10+ years of tutorials, recipes, and behind-the-scenes homestead life — some of it a little dusty these days, but the plant wisdom in it still holds up. For the freshest updates, my full ingredient glossary, and the current shop, head over to the main site.
