Christmas is coming!  I love this season, don't you?

I designed, shaped and hand painted each snowman and then sealed each with glossy varnish and attached baker's twine to each ornament.  Wouldn't this be a sweet gift for your child's teacher or daycare person or just so many other suggestions?

The ornament measures 3 inches tall and 1 3/4 inches wide.

Great care will be taken to ensure that the ornament arrives at its destination in one piece!

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!

I designed, shaped, and hand painted each sweater and then sealed each with a glossy varnish and attached baker's twine to each ornament.  Christmas sweaters seem to go hand in glove with the season!  Wouldn't this be a sweet gift for a teacher, daycare person or just so many other suggestions.  

The ornament measures 4 inches wide and 2 3/4 inches long.

I live in the charming town of Mahtomedi which is a suburb of St. Paul, in Minnesota.

This is the Mahtomedi "Badge" which I have used to honor my town and for the sake of "school spirit"!

I painted these badges on an ornament-shaped piece of wood.  I have not done this kind of thing before, but school spirit is a pretty wonderful thing and is good all-year round!

These pieces are hand painted and varnished with a glossy finish and I attached baker's twine to each ornament.

I designed, shaped, and hand painted each snowman and then sealed each with a glossy varnish and attached baker's twine to every ornament.  He is unique in that he has a glittery tinsel scarf and 3 red heart buttons and lots of glitter!

The ornament measures almost 4 inches tall and 3 inches wide.

Great care will be taken to ensure that the ornament arrives at its destination all in one piece!

I designed, shaped, and hand painted each gingerbread man and then sealed each with a glossy varnish and attached baker's twine to each ornament.  I think this could be an excellent teacher's gift or as a simple gift to let someone know you were thinking of them, or for whatever reason!! 

The ornament measures 3" x 2" and I think, would look lovely in an open space in between the boughs.

Great care will be taken to ensure that the ornament arrives at its destination all in one piece!

I designed and made this air dry clay Christmas stocking.  It has a very simple design and I think elegant styling and will be sure to look fabulous on your tree!  This would also make a great teacher gift or a gift for anyone!  

As stated above, I formed and designed (hand painted) the stocking and made sure to put on a good coat of glossy finish.  A baker's twine was attached as a hanger for the ornament.  

This ornament measures 3 inches by 2 inches and would look wonderful in any open space between boughs!  

Great care will be taken to ensure that the ornament arrives at its destination all in one piece.

Christmas is coming!  I love this time of the year! This is the year that I am opening up for two major products - Making soap and creating Christmas ornaments.

The Christmas Star Ornament is comprised of hand formed air dry clay that when dry is hand painted by me and applied with "fairy dust" biodegradable glitter, sealed with a glossy finish and then attaching a baker's twine hanger.

Measurements are almost 3 inches from point to point.

Great care will be taken to ensure that this ornament arrives in one piece by ensuring there is plenty of bubble wrap, strong cardboard boxing and plenty of sweet thoughts accompanying each order.

This price is for one ornament but of course, may than one may be ordered!

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!

Christmas is on its way. I love this time of the year!  

This Christmas ornament was made by me using air dry clay that I prepared and then hand painted and used a glossy sealer to "make it shine!".  The blue star has a cute little face peaking through a fir wreath. This is my own design.  There is a baker's twine hanger making it all ready for the tree!  

This would make a wonderful teacher's gift or for anyone on your list!  

Measurements:  3" from point to point.

We are already seeing Christmas ads and that has me exited - excited to be making great quality handmade soap just for you!

These bars are made with top quality ingredients using handmade soap dough to create the embedded leaves and blueberries.   The blue swirl was fun to do and goes through the soap loaf!

The ingredients used were olive oil, coconut oil, shea butter, sodium hydroxide and distilled water.  The mica colorants are blue and green and the soap dough has the same ingredients as the basic soap recipe. The soap was scented with Moon Child fragrance oil which has become one of my new favorites!  Of course, each soap is made with LOTS OF LOVE!

Average weight of each soap bar is 4.5 ounces.

Shipping charges are on a per soap basis.

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.

Oh my goodness...this is a very special coffee soap - it is a hazelnut scented coffee soap and it is so delicious!  The swirl was just what I was hoping for and to top it all off, there are soap coffee beans and a little bit of biodegradable glitter on top!!

I bet you know someone who is a big coffee fan and maybe even a hazelnut coffee fan!

Each soap I make is infused with LOTS OF LOVE!

This should come as no surprise to anyone but I love sunflowers!  I chose The Sunflower Cupboard as the name of my business and I have painted many many items with sunflowers!  Also, when I had a garden, I planted lots of sunflowers!  

I wanted to make the soap a little extra special so I created a sunflower and leaf out of soap dough which I also made.  

It is scented with Vetiver fragrance oil, which is a complex scent and just lovely!

This soap would be a wonderful gift for a gardener (novice or expert) or of course anyone who just loves sunflowers, teachers, coworkers, family members....they sky is the limit!!  

I live in an apartment now and get compliments on how nice it is to go past my door and enjoy whiffs of whatever soap I have just made and of course, my apartment always is delightfully scented!  

WELCOME TO MY WEBSITE!  This is a new addition to my Cold Process Hand Soap section of my shop!   Hmmm....an Easter Egg soap, that took some thinking.  The eggs were easy (made out of homemade soap dough) but what would the color of the base be?  I opted to a bluish lavender and then added some biodegradable glitter!  This soap is scented with Raspberry Jam fragrance oil and it is perfect!  

Naturally, this would be wonderful for an Easter gift or Spring gift, or any gift!

Please come back and visit often as new soaps are being made as I write!  I am a "small batch soap maker" and I love what I do!
