I was born a poor peasant girl...
Well, almost. I grew up a farmer's daughter and now live in an old farm house, with my family, surrounded by lush, green fields of corn and alfalfa in rural Wisconsin. I first discovered hand made soap about 1997. I was impressed with many of it's moisturizing qualities, but my creative personality wondered why home made soap couldn't be much more attractive and have a wider variety of rich aromas. So I researched many different processes and began making my own soap. In the next couple years I had taken what I considered to be the best features from many different formulas and combined them into my own recipes.
I enjoy making soap so much that I started giving it to family and friends. After they used it up they couldn’t wait for another gift and began to offer to buy it from me. Soon I was making enough batches that I started selling at craft shows. People liked my soap so much that they sent checks in the mail with reorders for themselves and for gifts. We began this web site to make it easier to stay current with what I have in stock, and to get up to date about any new scents and products I'm creating.
I regularly hear testimonies from people who have switched to my soap and who won't go back to their old store-bought bars of detergent soap. That is very rewarding and encourages me to keep making great soap with the best ingredients.
