Custom work and new Stonehenge soap




Loved how this custom cupcake soap order came out. Top 2 colors are Cinnamon Sugar and the bottom is Black Raspberry Vanilla.

Been busy restocking current soaps. In the last 2 batches of Stonehenge soap there were some really neat looking bars. The patterns in the soaps can be super cool sometimes.

gift basket



Back from my Denver craft show. It was a good show! I was debating on doing this one or not. I gave up doing another 2 day show last year that was good in order to try this one out.

I ended up making in 1 day what it took me 2 days to make which was nice. This was also new clients. Not one time did I hear I already bought from your or I am still using what I got before.

Busted out a bunch of gift baskets and soap sampler packs as those make great gifts during this time of the year.

I was really loving this basket. Maybe I like the wire style basket better then the wicker type ones?!!? Just thought it looked classier. This one is still looking for a new home :)

Hello!

Few pictures I took on my weekend trip.

I know I have been bad and not blogging recently. Just been busy and nothing too new to talk about. I took a weekend off and went down to the S/W corner of Colorado and took some fall colors pictures. It was pretty snowy but I actually think that made the fall colors pictures even cooler.

I have been busy making soaps but like normal it is mainly just restocking current soaps so nothing too fun to show. Lots of bath bombs going out the door as well but I keep forgetting to take pictures of some of them.

I am now in the middle of the holiday prep work. Have a bigger show in Denver Nov 5 so I am trying to get more lumps of coal soaps done. It is also time to bring back the soap sampler packs which I usually only sell at holiday shows since they make such great gifts. Also time to start getting gift baskets made up.

Fall Colors

Finished my last outdoor show on Saturday, only 3 more shows to go till the end of craft show season. Took off most of Sunday to take fall colors pictures up in the mountains.

I am taking next weekend off to take lots more pictures in the S/W part of Colorado. Hope the leaves are still on the trees and looking good still, so keep your fingers crossed.

Here are a few of the pictures from today.

Trip down memory lane

The giant blob!

Been making bath bombs this week and it reminds me of all the things I messed up in the beginning when I was trying to learn how to make them.

One I made ended up turning into the giant blob and took up a whole cookie sheet!

The bath bombs still give me trouble some days but never that bad at least.

Picture I took while at the Chile Festival craft show this weekend.

Chile Festival went pretty good. The attendance was way down from the year before but my sales were still good considering the lower crowd. Sure was a long weekend though 6 am- 11 pm sure made me tired!

One more outdoor show left which is this weekend and it is in my home town and only about 1 block from my house. So come to Penrose, CO Apple Day on Saturday, they even give out a free slice of apple pie to everyone.

Monkey Farts soap make over


Above are the after make over

Blue one is the before

Next up in the mini make overs is Monkey Farts. Decided to kick this one up a notch with the colors. Next batch I might even change the colors again!

Monkey Farts has top notes of fresh bananas and juicy grapefruit; middle notes of pineapple, and strawberries; and a hint of vanilla as a base note.

I will be going MIA till next week. My really big craft show of the year is this weekend.
This one is a 3 day show with long hours as we don't pack up till around 9 pm at night so I won't have much computer time.

If you are in Pueblo, Colorado come stop by the Chile Festival!
