Soap Box
I bet you are saying, "What an original title for a web page of a soaper." I know, not very cosmic of me. This page will be where I will make suggestions of where you might like to purchase products from other small business people within the Fox Valley area and give you education links and information on homemade soap. You might even "see" me getting up on my Soap Box about some issue, but I will keep that to a minimum, so don't worry, I don't want this turning into a blog.

"I really like your products especially the soaps. I'm very sensitive to most scents so I have been using the unscented soaps. I especially like the Unscented Goat's Milk with oatmeal and honey. There is just enough oatmeal in the soap to lightly exfoliate and my sensitive skin appreciates the natural ingredients.
Thanks for the great products, hope to see you at the next spirit or craft fair."
