In our current world, with oligarchy running rampant and everyone doing their best- we need to be lifting each other up & doing what we can to build community, supporting smaller businesses and creators.
This is our personal list of favorites, all local to central Alberta. Please consider giving them some love & support too. ♥
An order to Amazon is just another of millions, but an order or service from a local business means the world. It’s food on our tables, it’s our growth, and it’s a dollar NOT going to another mega-rich CEO.
(Let’s eat the rich, not support them ;)

Teddy of Dirt Nails within The Beauty Bar is a special highlight. She’s been my nail artist since getting her degree. Her designs are astounding! ♥ ~ Karlene
Pan Towels - Edmonton, AB
“Pan means all.
All bodies. All curves. All the space you actually occupy.
PanTowels are designed to wrap plus-sized bodies the way towels are supposed to—without strategic holding, shifting, or hoping no one notices the gap.
And once the towel existed, the robe had to follow. Because stepping out of the shower shouldn’t feel like another negotiation.
Pantowels! Finally, plus size towels!”
I adore my towel from Pan Towels. Soft, absorbent and just the right size for my body. It’s the small change you didn’t realize you needed. Being wrapped fully, with towel to spare, is a small daily comfort I had no idea I was missing out on. ♥ -Karlene
Handmade by Ali - Red Deer County, AB
“Hi, I'm Ali. I create luxury artisan candles with exceptional ingredients focusing on sustainability and attainability. I chose to use 100% pure soy wax, sustainable wicks made exclusively of natural materials & luxury fragrances that are free of phthalates and parabens - as everyone deserves the cozy comfort of a candle with the comfort of knowing it is made with love and safe ingredients."
Made here in Red Deer County! Ali’s candles are something special, long burn time, smooth wax that melts evenly. I can’t get enough. My current favourite is Dark Raspberry & Smooth Vanilla but I just noticed Strawberries & Cream, so I’ll be getting that ASAP! ♥ ~ Karlene
Club Enigma - Red Deer County, AB
“This lifestyle club is based in Red Deer Alberta and has been formed so couples/singles can have a means of getting together and meeting other couples/singles in the lifestyle. These get-togethers are "no pressure" evenings. Just a relaxed way to meet others.”
A safe, clean and monitored environment to meet other people in alternative sexual lifestyles. The club has been around for nearly a decade now! Check out their website for upcoming events and theme nights! :)
No More Wet Spot - Central Alberta
“Whether you're looking to keep surfaces dry or protect yourself during intimate moments, this waterproof blanket is the perfect solution”
Tired of the age-old struggle over the "WetSpot" after sex, we took matters into our own hands. In 2012, we created a 100% polyester waterproof blanket specifically designed to absorb fluids from sex, lube, and massage oils. Made with a “cool dry” fleece, this innovative blanket is just as easy to clean as your regular blankets - anything washable will wash right out!

I own SO MANY of these! Not only machine washable but dryable too!? Great for sex sure, but also- messes, spills, animal care, and just plain ‘ol snuggling in a comfy blanket. ♥ ~ Karlene
