Etsy CREST Inauguration Sale

Along with my fellow Capital Region Etsy Street Team members, I am having a sale ALL week! That's right, from January 17th through 25th everything in my shop is 15% off! Now is a great time to stock up on Valentine's Day gifts or just get that special soap for yourself.

There are a few new additions to my shop as well. I now have salt bars! These bars are loaded with sea salt to exfoliate your skin. The scent will make you want to eat them...Salty Caramel Peanut! Yum!

I've also relisted my Cucumber Facial Bars:

So head on over to my Etsy shop and when you're done stocking up on soaps, do a search for "etsy crest sale" to see what my team members have to offer!

Suds 'N' Such is now on Artfire!

I have recently opened a shop over on Artfire. For those who don't know, Artfire is a great new place to buy and sell handmade. When you get a chance, stop by and check out my new shop.

Featured by an Author!

Parenting author and "Chicken Soup for the Soul" editor, Susan Heim, featured my soaps on her blog today! How cool is that?!?!

Recently, a little birdie told me that she was looking for products to feature on her parenting blog. Immediately, I thought of my Soap-To-Go. I wrote to her about my product and she asked me for a sample. I didn't need to think twice about that! The very next day I sent her a bubblegum scented Soap-To-Go.



I had completely forgotten about it until today (not even a week later!) she emailed me to let me know that my soaps were featured on her blog! She wrote an incredible article (what else would you expect from an author?) and made my soaps sound amazing.

She is the sweetest person and I want to give her a great big THANK YOU for the amazing feature. Thank you, Susan!

Peanut Butter Soap - Good enough to eat?

As usual I had packages sitting outside waiting for a pick-up this morning. It looked like it was going to rain so I peeked out to see if the mailman had taken them yet. One of them had fallen on the ground so I went out to pick it up. As I set it back on the pile, guess what I discovered? Two other packages with holes in them and a bar of my Peanut Butter Soap had a bite taken out of it!

Hubby thinks it was squirrels. After all, they do like nuts. However, those crows sitting on my neighbors truck were looking quite suspicious...

Whatever it was had ripped all the way through my flat rate envelope to get to the soap. The other package was ok, just a few holes poked in it but I guess it was strong enough to keep the critter out.

Luckily, I had more and quick repackaged it with a new bar before the mailman got here. I can't even imagine the convo I'd get about that one! "Umm, my soap arrived partially eaten". I would never have believed it!

Sale!

In an effort to reach my goal for the year, I'm having a 10% off sale in my shop! This sale will only last until I reach 400 sales, so hurry before it's over! Whoever gets me to 400 will also receive a FREE Soap-To-Go in addition to their 10% discount!

I'm Still Alive!

I can't believe it's been almost a whole month since I posted! The Christmas rush has been wonderful! Between that, a wholesale order, and craft show season, I've been crazy busy lately. I'm working on some new soaps too, so keep an eye on my shop for some exciting new items!


Speaking of exciting, I'm getting closer and closer to my goal of 400 sales! I'll have to have a big celebration sale when it happens:)


Check out this cute new packaging for my Caramel Macchiato Soaps:

I found these cups at the store the other day and couldn't resist.

Happy Holidays everyone!

Christmas is Coming!

Can you believe Christmas is next month already?! I finally got some of my Christmas soaps listed in my shop. Above are my Peppermint Candy Soaps.

I can't wait to see what everyone else on Etsy makes for Christmas. I need to start shopping for gifts and I have my eye on quite a few shops already!

Sneak Attack Was A Success!

The other day I posted about the Sneak Attack I was sponsoring on the 29th. Well, it turned out to be a HUGE success! My "victim" was herbanlifestyle. During her attack she received 28 sales! I'm really not surprised considering what great products she sells. Here's a peek at a few of them.
