Thanks

Thanks so much to everyone who came to the craft fair and made it a huge success. It was great to visit with you and share some soapy fun!

Come one, come all...

And I'll be there too!

Aussie Mint, Shea Baby, Coffee Shop Trio

Here are some of my newest soap creations. I'm making a couple of batches a day now to get ready for an upcoming craft show, so my kitchen is absolutely covered in soapmaking tools. Thank goodness for an understanding husband!


Aussie Mint: A swirled olive oil soap, scented with Eucalyptus, Peppermint, Spearmint and Orange, and colored with oxides.


Shea Baby : A perfect choice for babies, made with 50% unrefined shea butter and scented with an all-natural Honey Almond blend. No added color.
Coffee Shop Trio: This combination was my aunt's idea (thanks Aunt Carrie!) and combines three coffee shop inspired soaps: Red Tea, made with African Rooibos tea leaves; Double Dark Chocolate, swirled with dark cocoa powder; and Espresso Express, made with double strength Italian espresso.
