JEWELS OF THE SEA!
This fun beach inspired soap is one of our favorite summer creations. The bottom layer resembles warm sandy beaches, while swirls above mimic the rolling waves as they wash ashore. Just as beachcombers discover treasures left behind by the tide, you’ll find colorful shells, pieces of sea glass, and the occasional mysterious squiggly sea treasure nestled on top, all made from soap. Its tropical fragrance is a heavenly blend of sweet pineapple accented with hints of papaya and fresh cilantro. It is a pretty and very mild soap to have and a joy to use in your shower or sink!
INGREDIENTS: Saponified Oils of Lard, Coconut and Castor, Water, Fragrance Oil, Kaolin Clay, Sea Salt, Sugar, Powdered Icelandic Black Sand, Mica Colorants.

WATERMELON SLICE SOAP!
We make a version of these every summer to celebrate the warmer weather, picnics, and so many outdoor celebrations where watermelon is featured and enjoyed. These have a juicy, delicious fragrance that smells somewhere between fresh watermelon and watermelon candy. We love it and think you will, too!
As always, our soap is formulated to last a long time and to be gentle on your skin.
INGREDIENTS: Saponified Oils of Lard, Olive, Coconut, Palm and Castor, Water, Fragrance Oil, Kaolin Clay, Sea Salt, Sugar, Mica Colorants, Poppy Seeds.

Peg and Marianne made a fan favorite, Treasure Beach Soap, today!

This soap has a 🍍 pineapple 🍍 heavy fruity scent. It does take some extra time to create the decorations for this soap, but it’s one of our favorites to make.

Check back in 4 weeks to snag one for yourself!

LILACS IN BLOOM!
The lilac fragrance oil used in this soap smells just like fresh lilac flowers! It is so authentic that it consistently receives 5 star ratings by other customers who bought this oil from the supplier. I’ve been using it for years in my soaps and they have become top sellers. In addition, this soap guarantees an extremely mild but thorough clean, kind enough for anyone with sensitive skin from babies up to mature dry skin.
INGREDIENTS: Saponified Lard, Water, Fragrance Oil, Kaolin Clay, Sea Salt, Sugar, Mica Colorants.

“GET THE BUGS OUT!” Soap
Here is the second edition of this creepy crawler soap. My 9 year old grandson is the designer! We happened to have some plastic bugs on hand in our soap supplies and during conversations regarding how to use them, he came up with this. They are even scented with a fragrance called Dirt! Lol! We used a premium quality detergent free glycerin soap that can be melted, colored and fragranced in the microwave to be poured into molds. He is sure that other kids will think this is a fun and hilarious soap to have at the sink, tub, or shower. His grandma (me) and his mom (Marianne) think it would also make a great gag gift. Of course, he gets to keep the profits to save up for something he wants.
INGREDIENTS: Detergent Free Glycerin Soap, Liquid Soap Colorant, Fragrance Oil and Plastic Bugs.
$7 - 1 available - if you’d like any, please comment below! I will make more if I get orders beyond these 4. Eight were claimed before I could post this!

Sneak peek - Peg and Marianne made a soap with these two colors today… any guesses on what the fragrance is!?

MILLION DOLLAR GOLD BAR SOAP!
Last month my 9 yr old grandson Lars came to the house with his mom and we made this soap! He is very responsible and old enough to help safely. Everything you see here is his idea, including the bright, fruity fragrance. He greatly enjoyed the experience and will help to make more in the future. Also, the money earned from the sale of his soap is his, which increases motivation. 😊 It’s a high lathering soap and long lasting. We couldn’t be more proud of him!
INGREDIENTS: Saponified Oils of Lard, Coconut and Castor, Water, Fragrance Oil, Kaolin Clay, Sea Salt, Sugar, Mica Colorants, Oxide Colorant. The “gold bars” on top are made from detergent free glycerin soap.
