Rolling out some seasonal faves!

Woohoo....fall is here! Isn't it just the BEST season? I know it's my favorite. I love wearing a certain sweater around the house, over every outfit, almost daily. It's like a warm hug....ahhhhh! I also love pulling my swing coat & pea coat out from the back of the closet....LOVE them....and miss them in the off-seasons. But, of course, one of the most fun things about fall is getting ready for the holidays. And besides all the excitement at home, the fun is also building in the soap kitchen! It's time to welcome back our autumn/winter limited edition handmade soap in an amazing array of sentimental scents & fun shapes. A few of our seasonal soap scents are now available...with many more coming out in the next week or so. Watch for our tweets to find out when your favorite is back!

So far, we have welcomed back Pumpkin Spice in it's sweet little pumpkin shape:
Pumpkin Spice Handmade Soap
and Bayberry Spice in a classic oak leaf shape:
Bayberry Spice Handmade Soap

Both are perfect for your fall entertaining and gift-giving needs! Of course, you can always keep them all for yourself....we won't tell!

You can find these fall favorites in any of our online shops: Website, Etsy, Artfire or Zibbet

HAPPY FALL!!

Preparing for the holiday RUSH

It's that time of year again....time for our little handmade soap business to become a mini factory! Soap bars are flying by like beer bottles on the line in the Laverne & Shirley opening. (did that just totally show my age? or was it the use of the word TOTALLY? LOL!)

We have been making TONS of soap in seasonal scents, special shapes, building inventory of our 'regular' fragrances & restocking scents that we offer in limited quantity. Boy, oh boy, does it smell good in here! All the little soapies are nestled & snug on our curing rack waiting for their time to shine! The photo below is a few years old & shows how we used to have soap curing. Now we have one of those rolling baking racks with a gazillion shelves. It is able to temporarily house TONS & TONS of curing soap....and it's mobile! Thank goodness for that rack, it was one of the best purchases ever. Although, we need to get a second one now.
What else is going on? A few new ideas are currently being worked out. Local craft shows have been booked. Black Friday sales & giveaway details are being planned. In fact, we *just* placed an order for a special FREE giveaway for our Black Friday sale. We're not telling what it is though....you'll have to stay tuned to find out all the details!

Well, I  guess that is all for the update for now. I'll be posting, tweeting & blogging when items become ready for purchase. So....stay tuned for the Gingerbread Man's return announcement!
