Black Squirrel Sundries

So this is the start of Black Squirrel Sundries.  The soap selling went well, better than I expected.  Scott and I stayed up most of Thursday night printing, cutting, and labeling.  I was so tired when I got home and I am very thankful that Holly or Celestia (or both?) picked up my shift today.  Thanks ladies- maybe a compensation of homemade bath products is in order?

It was good to see what fragrances people like, what I need to make more or less of, presentation, labeling, things like that.  A website will be up soon and I think for now I will just list products as they become available.  Please leave a comment if you have a favorite fragrance or product you would like me to work on.  Besides soaps, I hope to get some aprons and things of that nature made and up for sale.  We'll see...but tomorrow we are leaving for vacation!  South Dakota here we come.  Yippee!!

Just Mama hoping you two have a safe but fun trip. Then when you get back you can get to work making me some laundry soap! Olive is having fun here with Mimi. She could do without the new rooster attacks but she's just sooo curious! You'll have to hear about their encounter with the wild duck that stopped by. See you soon, Love Mom
