#001 BLACK CAT PIN

Yes, I know this is not a Christmas ornament and is a pin but I thought it was close enough! I guess you could even hang it on a Christmas tree?  They are really cute, are made of wood with pin back and are hand painted by me. 

These would be great for the cat lover you know, for teacher's gifts, Halloween and so much more.

The pin measures 2" x 2" and would be shipped either in an envelope (padded hopefully) protecting the pin.  I will take just the same amount of care shipping my ornaments as I would any of the products I sell.

Thank you for shopping with us and hope you come back and see us anytime you have the time!

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!

#029 SEASON SAMPLER

I wanted to design a piece that covered all four season in one pattern.  I had a round paper mache box in my "stash" and used that as the surface.  This pattern could also be painted on any flat surface, limited by your own imagination!  It was a fun piece to design and paint and hopefully for you to paint as well.  

This pattern was published in Pixelated Palette in May of 2015.

This bar of soap takes my breath away.  It swirls in all directions - side to side, crossways and diagonally.  The colors are a combination of neon colorants that were softy muted but they are mesmerizing.  It is a smaller bar but time consuming with this swirl.  

The ingredients are as follows:  Sodium hydroxide, olive oil, coconut oil, shea butter, distilled water, titanium dioxide, Neon mica pigments of blue, hot pink and House Party Purple; Garden Party fragrance oil and Into the Mystic biodegradable glitter and lots of love!

Estimated weight for each soap bar is 2.8 ounces.

#018 COPPER MINE COLD PROCESS HAND SOAP

I just received a new mica colorant, called Ectoplasm, and I just love it and could not wait to make some soap with it.  It is a rich turquoise/aqua blue.  I did not want to do just a plain soap bar but I thought a jagged pencil line near the midline would look great.  To me it would be like a finding a vein of copper or gold.  The sparkly copper mica I have was my first choice.   The pencil line looks dark in the photo but it is clearly a shiny copper line! I hope you like my choice!  I left the top of the soap really jagged.  

These bars are made with top quality ingredients. The ingredients used were olive oil, coconut oil, shea butter, sodium hydroxide, distilled water, mica colorants used were Ectoplasm and Copper Sparkle.  The scent i used was Honey Patchouli fragrance oil and these soap bars are made with LOTS OF LOVE!

Average weight of each soap bar is 4.7 ounces.

Shipping charges are per bar of soap.

Feel free to come back and visit me anytime as new soaps and products will be added from time to time.

Thanks for stopping by!

LAVENDER COLD PROCESS HAND SOAP

#025 LAVENDER COLD PROCESS HAND SOAP

Welcome to my Webpage and to my COLD PROCESS HAND SOAP section!

I have been making soap for about 10 years now.  I started out making our family's hand soap for years and have been making hand soap to sell in shops and online for a few years now.  I love making soap!  I love trying different techniques, different swirl designs, and have recently added in making soap dough and then crafting items to embellish my soap with soap dough. 

There is no soap dough with this particular soap.  Lavender soap is one of the "old standbys" for the scent alone.  I grew lavender in my garden and saved the lavender buds and thought I would add some buds to the soap as an extra bonus!

Giving soap as a gift is such a wonderful idea especially for a gardener you may know as well as a teacher gift, coworker gift, friend gift, stocking stuffer and the list goes on!

Thank you for stopping by and please check in periodically as new soap is added year round!

EUCALYPTUS PEPPERMINT COLD PROCESS HAND SOAP

#030 EUCALYPTUS PEPPERMINT COLD PROCESS HAND SOAP

The scent on this is amazing....so crisp and clean (eucalyptus and peppermint).  I decided to make this a 3 layer soap starting with a dark indigo, then a medium indigo and then a very creamy off white with a softly carved top.  It looks very stylish and the scent is memorable!  

This soap probably will not be available very long - lots of positive feedback.  Would be a wonderful stocking stuffer, coworker gift (for everyone), hostess gift...you are only limited by your imagination!  No, seriously this soap is amazing!

A wee bit early but just in case I don't have a chance to wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

APPLE BOURBON COLD PROCESS HAND SOAP

#031 APPLE BOURBON COLD PROCESS HAND SOAP

Color-wise, this soap could be suitable for both Fall and Winter/Christmas - red/green/gold colors and to make it really special it is scented with a mix of Apple Bourbon and Kentucky bourbon scents!  The top of the bar is swirled with the above-mentioned colors and the addition of dried cranberry seeds as well!

Getting started on Fall and Holiday soaps is my happy time!  So many ideas and sometimes not enough time but I am getting there!  

We moved in April and spent a good amount of time and more setting up my "soaping area" which has ended up being stored in a nice den off the kitchen/living room and my old standby art table in the same area of the kitchen/living room.  

I am truly in my happy space now and will be creating more soap and art in the years to come!

Hope you all have a wonderful Fall, Christmas, New Year and rest of the year and on and on and on!

SPICED CRANBERRY AND ORANGE COLD PROCESS SOAP

#032 SPICED CRANBERRY AND ORANGE COLD PROCESS SOAP

I have been wanting to add a slice of orange to a soap for a while and it was fun to make it happen.  It is a spicy cinnamon scented soap and the two colors are wonderful.  I hand sliced and dried the orange slice on each soap.  I also added dried cranberry seeds to the top of the soap.  I really liked the look of the orange slice and may be making a key lime pie soap and add a slice of lime on top!  Stay tuned!

This would be a lovely gift for that special someone you know who loves botanicals and spicy hand soaps and Christmas is coming!   

Hope you all have a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
