New Item Soon to be in My Etsy Shop.

I have spent the last little while researching how to make all natural laundry soap and cleaners.  I'm about to test out a few different formulas and the winner of them all will make it to my Etsy shop, available for others to use as well.  It is a great money saver because you only use a little bit to clean.  I am not sure how well they will clean yet as I am making my first batch tonight.  I will be making a batch of laundry soap and a batch of all purpose cleaner.  I may end up making 2 batches of the laundry soap, one dry and one liquid to see which I like best.  I will be posting my progress so check back soon.  Also take a peek at the great smelling new All Natural Goats Milk Soaps!  Been having too much fun.

Got it and made them.

I got my next order and made a few batches of soap.  Actually quite alot of fun and I am currently saving up for the next order.  Unfortunately, they have to be small orders, but as things get going I hope to be making even bigger orders and start working on my candles.  Check out my Etsy shop to see the new ones listed.  There is:
Misty Morning, a blend of orange, jasmine and violet
Satin Sheets, a blend of lily of the valley, vanilla, sandlewood and a light musk.  This one my testers really liked and so did my husband.
Lilac, smells just like a lilac bush, I can't wait to make this one into a candle.  I am very much a lilac person and a little sad that their lovely blooming time is so short.
I also got some baby soaps made in 2 scents, Baby Buttermilk and Baby Powder and will be sold in sets of 2, one of each set.  Haven't got them listed yet, but plan on doing so very soon.
Not sure what scents my next order will bring as I have really done my researching yet, but that will be done very soon as well.  Ok, that's all for now, check back soon to see what new ones will be coming and please check out my Etsy shop and leave comments here of what you think.

Slowly but Surely

Good News!  I almost have enough saved up to make another soap supply order.  This next order will be lots of fun, I will be putting 3 new listings in my Esty shop, if they all turn out good.
I have sold one bar of my Cucumber Melon soap and hope to sell alot more, especially after I get these next listings up.  I should be making this order over the weekend and I can't wait.  Been a struggle to save for this one .  With no extra income to spare for this hobby of mine, I have been doing surveys and whatever else I have sold in my shops to save up.  But, things will change when I get my shop inventory stocked up.  Hoping to make lots of sales in the coming months.

Delicious!  Here is the final product is available in my Etsy shop. Smells so good.  My children wanted to eat it this morning and I had to hide them.  They are packaged and waiting to be shipped.  Still haven't got my labels figured out yet, that is the next project for me.  Each bar is 3.5-4oz of creamy, soapy goodness.

I'm done with my Cucumber Melon chunk soap.  Turned out pretty good, in the mold anyway.  I will be able to find out in the morning how nice it looks cut into bars.  I still have my fingers crossed and hoping for the best.  I also pour a few bars of a scent called Satin Sheets, a great unisex scent.  I will be keeping the Satin Sheets for my own personal use.  Fear not though, I will make a bigger batch to put in my shop after I test out how nice it is  to use as I used a different mold with a design.  Check back soon so you don't miss out on any of the fun.  
It's here!  UPS dropped off my box of fun stuff for my next batch of soap, which, if it turns out how I want is going to smell delicious and look like alot of fun.  Cucumber Melon is the scent.  The plan is to be a medium green base with white chunks.  Can't wait to get started.  Will post pictures as soon as it is in the mold!  And I'm off!

Sad to say, the soap business is not going so good at the moment.  Money has gotten alot tighter and I haven't been able to pursue this like I wanted to.  But good news, I am about to make another supply order so I can get some more made up and in my shop.  I have been reading up on all sort of things to make you listings better, and hopefully they help.  Keep checking back for more news.
