What would your day look like? I know what I would […]

For me, its a fine line, a dance of taking in thoughtful feedback and not letting it sway my creativity, all the while staying open […]

Good Soap What makes a good soap?  Is it the ingredients, the design, the scent or the way your skin feels? If all these factors make a “good” soap, what makes a good soaper? Is it financial success? Is it popularity? Is it quantity sold? I’ve been asking these questions of myself. I am at […]

I also saw my soaps, to date, were about perfecting my […]

I make what inspires me.  Like a great meal, the experience of my soap might be equally as temporary in duration. Unlike a great meal soap won’t increase your waistline, […]
