Kombucha is a fermented drink of a sweetened tea that has been brewed using a macroscopic solid mass of microorganisms. It's said to contain essential nutrients like viable probiotics, amino acids, antioxidants and active enzymes, and have many health benefits!

In this workshop we provide you with an alternative to commercially produced Kombucha by teaching how to brew your own, saving you lots of money and getting unique flavors. I will show how to safely brew a supply at home. Plus each participant will go home with their very own S.C.O.B.Y. baby, the 'symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeast'.

Class size is limited. Send an email to shana@shanaastrachan.co

a S.C.O.B.Y. baby to get started

Name Necklaces

Lucky Megan got this beautiful necklace from her hubby Andy this past year. She wanted a 'name necklace' so when Andy came to me with this special project I was excited to create a custom version just for her. In all gold this necklace sweetly has Megan engraved in a scroll font across the front. And how lovely she wears it!



I now make these necklaces also in silver and offer a few options for fonts. See the Fox and Doll versions created for Fox & Doll Makeup.
