Introducing Our New Artisan Balm – A Maker’s Must-Have

I’m so excited to share a new addition to the Living Skies Fibre Studio collection – Artisan Balm, created especially for the hands that bring creativity to life. Whether you’re knitting, crocheting, spinning, weaving, or dyeing yarn, your hands work hard. They deserve a little extra love.

This rich, nourishing balm delivers lasting, non-greasy moisture that keeps your skin soft without leaving a slippery residue on your fibre projects. It’s perfect for those moments between stitches when you realize your hands are feeling dry, but you can’t afford to wait for lotion to soak in.

Even better, Artisan Balm is made in partnership with Prairie Apothecary, a local wildcrafted skincare company that shares my passion for natural, high-quality ingredients. Every batch is handcrafted in Saskatchewan, using plant-based goodness that feels just as lovely as it smells. The subtle, relaxing scent is like a deep breath for your soul – a little reminder to slow down and savour your creative space.

Where to Find It

You’ll be able to get your hands on our new Artisan Balm at upcoming fibre markets across the prairies. I’ll have it with me at my workshops so you can try it for yourself before taking one home. And for those who can’t make it in person, it will also be available in my Etsy shop – perfect for treating yourself or gifting to the maker in your life.

Why Makers Love It:

• Non-greasy, quick-absorbing formula

• Moisturizes without affecting your yarn or fabric

• Gentle, natural ingredients you can feel good about

• A calming scent to enhance your creative flow

Your hands tell the story of your creativity. Let’s keep them happy, healthy, and ready for the next project.

Keep an eye on my Event schedule and Etsy updates – this little tube of magic is going to be a staple in every maker’s toolkit.
