Back to Reality

Wow! What a crazy 2 months it has been! After the hurricane, we had so much to do, plus the holidays, plus a MUCH-NEEDED vacation! Finally back to normal life - and we have a lot of things to prepare for the new year! Hope everyone had a great holiday and have a FANTASTIC 2013! :)

The Aftermath of Sandy

We now have power, cable and internet.  As happy as i am...there are families who were hit far worse than we are who not only do not have power, they lost their entire homes.  Looking at the devestation in the surrounding towns (literally within just a few miles from us) - it's so sad to see what this has done to so many people.  Our prayers to everyone who is suffering through this terrible time.

Hurricane Sandy

Well Hurricane #Sandy has hit our area. Luckily my section of town hasn't been too bad. A lot of wind and no power for the last 6 hours. Some areas have been hit really bad! A lot of flooding and some people have lost their homes. Boardwalks are either demolished or completely gone and transformers are blowing up all over. My grandmothers town (and it's the town I grew up in) is completely under water...yea the whole town! I have no idea what her house is like right now. Thankfully she is staying at my parents house. And it's not over yet. My prayers to those who have been affected worse than I have!

Our Travel Soap Cups are a hit! 

I havent even gotten them up on the website yet! I am currently making A LOT of them to fulfill orders - and then making even MORE to put up on the site! At only $2 each - the are flying out of here!

 

New Product!

Just finished making lots of Travel Soap Cups in Honey Almond Scent. This is our newest product that you are sure to love. Wow - they smell amazing!!

Next up - Coconut Lime. Yum!

Travel Soap Cups are perfect for anyone who is like me...hates the smell of public restroom soaps and hotel room soaps. Small enough to keep in our travel bag or purse. Just pop out of the cup, wash, and pop back in! Simple!

We will be adding them to our website and craft show product line very soon!

With Summer coming to an end, it's time for me to start thinking about fall scents.  So far, the list is made up of our favorites (and most popular):

Honey Almond
Candy Corn
Gingerbread

Cupcake Soaps, soap bars, whips and scrubs will all be made with these great scents.  Finalizing the list will be hard - sooo many scents to choose from!

Strawberry Orange Soap + Summer = Awesome!

Ah...Summer.  My favorite time of year!  I love making soaps with summer-like scents to add to the ambiance of the season.  Our Strawberry Orange soap bar is pefect for this time of year - the scent is fruity and light, great for morning pick-me-up's! 

This soap comes in a huge 6oz bar - it will last a long time!  Lathers great too!

I've become a coupon addict!

I never got so excited to shop before - ok that might be a lie. :)

But seriously....the first time i used coupons, was definitely not my last! I have been insane about them ever since. Up until recently, I scoured the Sunday newspapers for them. Now I can get them online too - wow!

My boyfriend was amazed at how little I have spent on things like ziplock bags, cat food, razors, shampoo, etc. Maybe I've created another coupon monster! :)

I found that some stores (like Target) let you "stack" coupons - meaning you can use their store coupon AND a manufacturers coupon on one item....even MORE savings!  I happen to shop in Target frequently so I tend to bring my coupons with me just in case I spot a great deal.

There are various sites to get them - check this one out!

2012 Teen Choice Awards

We are in the process of uploading and labeling photos from the 2012 Teen Choice Awards, where our miniature Cupcake Soaps were included in the swag bags in the Gift Lounge.  Here's a little teaser...

Storms & Such

A very severe storm last night closed down an entire town! Trees are down and wires are all over the place. The town looks like a tornado came through. With that said...we will not be going to the fair today since the town is in a state of emergency.
:(

So we will be working on new goodies to add to the website as well as packaging orders. Free Shipping is a popular "giveaway"! :)
