Cut Soap

Thought I would share some photos of the newest soaps all sliced up:

The almonds are pretty cute, I'm glad I thought of it last minute!


And I love how the swirls in the Yuzu turned out!



They should be available in my Etsy Shop and Website in early April

Giveaway for 5!

Teresa posted a cute giveaway on her blog...and I thought I would follow since it has been wayyyy too long since I last had one!

The rules are (copied from Teresa and edited a bit):
The first 5 people who respond to this post will get something made by me and it will be my choice, but hopefully be something you can use or enjoy.
*I make no guarantees that you will like it...but I hope you do!
*You will receive this item before the end of the year...or sooner.
*You will have no idea what the item will be, or when you will receive it.
*To participate, you don't have to re-post this meme on your blog, But it would be fun to put together something to be sent out as 5 surprises of your own. These surprises can be anything....a piece of art, a photo, a poem...whatever you choose.

Two More Batches Curing


It seems as if making soap is almost impossible to find time for anymore!

I usually make it when the girls are safely in bed and there no fear of them running around my feet, but anymore I am too tired at the end of the day to do much!


I thought it would be fun to put some almonds on the top


But I mustered out two batches in the last few days; Yuzu and All Almond.


I couldn't decide on how to position the almonds, I liked the flat in the end

Yummy Yuzu and All Almond at a gel


They are both scents I've made before and sold quite well, so I think they will become 'regulars' along with Simply Soap and Kitchen Coffee soap. I also try to keep some sort of Lavender scent in stock like these here and here.

So to all my soapy friends that sell....how do you decide what to ALWAYS (or at least try to) keep in stock as a regular and how often do you introduce 'seasonal' or 'just for the fun of it' scents?
