Welcome

Soap making is a fun and exciting hobby, full of trial and tribulations! When you create soap you are creating art, each one is different, never the same. An addicting hobby.... once you get started all you think about is what kind of soap to make next. This blog is about my soaping experience please enjoy!

Hazelwood Harvest Fair





















Well the day has finally arrived and gone. Where did that month go? I was so busy working at my regular job "Cab Driving" up at 6 am wrapping, soap, cuttting labels, taping and gluing soap labels, run out the door for 8 am, work till5;30 pm, come home, walk dog for an hour, come home feed animals make myself something to eat and work on soap till midnight! Whew...All for one day....but worth it. the fair turned out good I had a table right at the front door where people walked in. At 1 pm the doors where open and until 4 o'clock I was busy selling soap! I sold 26 bars which doesn't sound like a lot but made $130.00!! in 4 hours very successful first show!
Of all my soap winner of the day ....."PUMPKIN PATCH" Everyone loved it and the comment of the day was "I could just eat that!" Runner up "Green Tea and Chamomile" It was the fact that Green Tea is so popluar these days...Ithink, plus I also promoted it as the besti n the bath and just how natural the ingredients were!

Patchouli Love Soap




This was one of my first soaps. I love the smell! It was however making my partner Amy sick as she is going through the morning sickness and so it was removed from her shop. Rewrapped with a Tribal Heart label they look fantastic and are ready to go for sale t the Hazelwood Fair. Next Sunday is the day and think I will be ready!
