On the Curing Rack: Pumpkin Pie Soap
I’m so excited to show you the Pumpkin Pie soap! It turned out wonderful! Fortunately I made enough for you, your neighbor, and your neighbor’s dog, should you all need some. There are several benefits to adding real pumpkin puree […]
On the Curing Rack: Citrus Basil
I had a request for a citrusy soap, and knew that this fragrance would fit the bill. I made a small batch of it last summer and had no problem selling it. I changed the color a bit, but it […]
On the Curing Rack: Cucumber Melon
I think it’s been two years since I’ve made Cucumber Melon soap, so yesterday I decided not to hoard this fragrance any longer. I added some fresh cucumber straight from the farmer’s market, and so far you can see the […]

There’s a bit of history to this scent. A little over a year ago, my friend Sarah asked if I could make some lotions for her wedding party. She came over and sniffed some of my fragrances before the big […]
On the Curing Rack: Gardener’s Scrub
Yesterday I whipped up this awesome soap – I’ve had several customers asking me when I was going to make some more Gardener’s Scrub. I hadn’t made any since the first batch in August of 2004! This time around in […]
