News!

Hello again, wonderful blog readers!

Sorry I've been away from blogging - as you know, the Holiday shopping season is upon us, and I've been busy in the shop and promoting the biz... a task I'm just not good at, I might add.

But I do have what I consider to be an exciting newsworthy update.

Recently, I entered (and WON) the FatCow (my web host) "Offbeat, Online Treasure" contest!!! My entry was one of three that receives a free year of web hosting, but more important is that my soap petals will be featured in their product marketplace and they will also be promoting my website in their community directory for free!

Happy soapy Winter, and no matter what you celebrate.........make it great and bubbly!

New Candles for June!!!

Three scents stood out last summer that needed to be made again:

Cherry Limeade - The perfect combination of sweet and tart

Sweet Peach Tea - A definite improvement over sweet tea - you can actually smell both peaches and tea

Tart Red Currant - by specific customer request - this one is a super tart red currant (stay tuned for my next blog, which will be about whipped body butters, and tart red currant is one we're testing the waters on to see if customers like the smell to have it on them all day)

And lastly, and not a candle - new black ceramic soap dishes. I have yet to come up with a name for them (manufacturer calls them "Asian style" which I'm not entirely comfortable with - any suggestions?

As always - stay soapy, my friends!

Sweetgrass with chamomile buds on top

Sedona Sunrise - Sweet orange with rosemary essential oils and ground rosemary

Goldcoast coffee - Coffee soap with coffee "swirls" topped with 24k gold mica

Oklahoma Mimosa - with 24k gold on top

As the most interesting man in the world would say.....Stay soapy, my friends!

Congratulations to the winner!

Happy New Year and congratulations to Nancy Heath, who submitted the best name to rename "autumn tryst" to "vanilla dreams." Ironically, Nancy also submitted the name autumn tryst - prior to the contest, of course. Thank you to all who submitted their suggestions!

Happy bubbles and New Year to all!
