Please excuse our meaningless void…

If you have visited our site before, you might be wondering where the background and formatting have gone. We just updated our website and, alas, the original theme was no longer compatible with the rest of our website. We are looking for a new theme, but for now, I get to make lots of terrible jokes about how I don’t have much of a background as a website designer…..get it??? Background???? Ha!! Sorry 🙂 In the meantime, our website is perfectly functional despite its minimalist look. Thanks, as ever, for your many indulgences.

Resurrect another Dead Cosmetic with Kim Damio of Portland Black Lipstick Company. This year, we’ll be re-creating a mid-Victorian era violet-scented powder and (as usual) attendees will be able to take a small quantity home free of charge. Learn why violet powder contains noactual violets!! Let the story of the violet powder poisonings of 1878 chill your blood!! Hear the melancholy story of Violet Powder’s descent into modern day obscurity!! Join us and smell fabulous!!
