We are always looking for special finds and came across, Spa Cards! We had the opportunity of interviewing the founder of Spa Cards, Stephanie Cooney and got to know all about how Spa Cards came to life. Here is what she had to say: Sprinkles Magazine: When was Spa Cards founded? SC: Spa Cards was founded in 2005. ______________________________________ Sprinkles Magazine: What are the Bath Salts made with? SC: The salts are imported from the Dead Sea in Israel and mixed with their aromas by Aroma Salts in New York City. The Dead Sea salts are of a highly healing quality. I put them in my hot tub all the time. It might be the only reason I haven't fallen completely apart after all I've put my body through! ______________________________________ Sprinkles Magazine: How many scents are there available? SC: Currently there are 8 aromas plus several designs which have no scent, meaning they are the raw salt without any aroma mixed in. _______________________________________ Sprinkles Magazine: Do you offer custom designs? SC: We also do custom designs for all occasions such as weddings and other events. Spa Cards make great party favors both the current designs and custom. I am currently working on new designs specifically for special occasions, flower arrangements, table top party favors and more.

Sprinkles Magazine: Where can the Spa Cards be purchased? SC: Spa cards are sold wholesale by Stepher's Inc. to a variety of retailers including boutiques, gift shops, florists, drug stores and spas. If your favorite retailer has yet to carry Spa Cards, you may suggest they contact Stepher's Inc. to purchase a wholesale order for their business. If you are a retailer, Spa Cards can be purchased wholesale online at www.stephersinc.com or by phone or email. ________________________________________ Sprinkles Magazine: How big are the cards and how much of the bath salts come with each card? SC: The cards are 5x7, the basic greeting card size which fits in an A-7 envelope. The salt pack is approximately 3 oz. which is enough for one nice soak in an average size bath tub or several foot baths. There is a “feel good” mini meditation inside the card as well; something to ponder as you soak. It’s all very whimsical, light hearted and humorous, meant to bring a smile.
