FAQ Topics:
Anointing Oils
Q. I love the anointing oil you used on my scarf - where can I order more?
A. I use the Scent of Heaven anointing oils pretty much exclusively. You can visit the site here.
Q. I have scent allergies, can you anoint my scarf with an unscented oil?
A. Absolutely! Please notify me at the time of purchase and I am happy to anoint your scarf with an unscented oil.
Q. I have scent allergies, but I forgot to tell you when ordering - how can I get the scent out?
A. The fastest was is to wash it on gentle. Per our care instructions, we don't recommend this largely because the shimmer doesn't do well in the laundry. (For example, the sparkle shimmer in particular will come off.) Simply, be forwarned and proceed with caution! If you have questions, don't hesitate to contact us.

A. I realize what we do here may seem a tad unusual, but the "Spirit-led Dyeing?" section helps to explain how we do what we do.
Scarf Names
Q. Why do your scarves have names?
A. The scarves are named for what they represent - for example, one day the Lord told me to wear my scarf called Deep Peace, later in the day I ended up in a situation where I was interceding for someone to have deep peace - God had sent me prepared to intercede. (see the Biblical context)
Q. How do you get the names?
A. Sometimes the Lord gives me the name while I'm making the scarf; sometimes He tells me when I'm finished with it or even a while after it's been done. Sometimes He doesn't tell me until I wear it for the first time. Sometimes the Lord will use one of my intercessor friends to give me the name.
Also, sometimes I start with the name. I was talking to my mother and she'd been reading in Psalms 30:11 and came across "Girded with Gladness" and thought that would make a wonderful scarf name. She told me about it and I felt like I was to make it for her, so I asked the Lord what that might look like... He sure came up with something I never would have - it was a prophetic message for my mother - it was beautiful. (Read some other Scarf Stories)
The thing is - there are no rules. He's always doing a new thing - I just have to stay ready for that.

Q. What if I get a different name?
A. Sometimes that happens! That's totally cool - sometimes He does that; sometimes He'll change the meaning of the scarf for a particular time too. Again - there are no rules. He's always doing a new thing - just stay ready and open for it.
Scarf Uses
Q. How do you use the scarves?
A. There are many different uses. Their primary intended function is for worship (used as dance scarves, streamers, flags, wings, billows) and intercession (e.g. prayer cloths, prayer shawls).
They also are lovely scarves for everyday wear - they can be worn lots of different ways.
Last (but certainly not least), they also make wonderful gifts!
