Happy New Year 2024!

Happy New Year lovely friends!

It’s a bright, shiny new year and a fresh start with hope and sparkle that this one will be much better than the last. And if you’re not feeling all that, at least a tiny speck of gratitude when dumping the rubbish of 2023 into the bin and moving on.

Aaaand, here's where I insert my "it's another year of clean living" line - and please don't groan. It's more than a silly pun, it's meaningful in a real world way that can have great impact. Clean living means making choices that prioritize the well-being of ourselves and the planet too. Obvious things like healthy eating, reducing stress, getting plenty of rest, and connecting to the natural world. Taking responsibility and action for our own health and wellness is absolutely critical as we've learned especially in the last few years.

And in the larger perspective, it means choosing environmentally-friendly products, and supporting organizations and companies that align with our values too. Clean living makes us happier and healthier, which in turn, creates a positive impact in the world around us. It doesn't have to be overwhelming, just tiny little choices each day, like showering with a fresh bar of really good soap made from scratch by yours truly micro-business. After that, you can tackle breakfast . . .

Winter Clearance Sale Begins

YES! It's happening right now - the start of my annual Winter Clearance Sale where all the holiday scented soaps are discounted to $4 each until they are gone. A few Helping Hands sets are on sale too at $10 each. And 3 sample scents I’m clearing out of the studio also: Winter Moon, Candy Cane Marshmallow, and Orange Blossom + Satsuma.

All the winter patterns of the Swedish Dish Cloths are now on sale too. There are a bunch of charming new designs to choose from this year. But clearing out space is the priority, so we're offering them all for 20% off (now $4 each).

If you absolutely loved one of the holiday soaps, or just need more of something you got for a holiday gift, click this LINK to start shopping right this very minute. 

And then mark your calendar for February 1st. That's the day I'll be announcing the Spring menu and I'll have a few more sample soaps on sale - one of a kind scents, fun new experiments, some interesting new things to try. I like to start my year with a clean, organized studio, which helps inspire me with fresh ideas. I'm shuffling out some of the older scents and samples I've been hanging onto, creative brain storming some fun new scents play with this year.


May this new year ahead be vibrantly healthy and abundant in every possible way for all of us. We are creating our future with every thought, decision and action we take. Nourish yourself well, rest often, be kind to yourself and all beings. Together we can make this year brighter than the last.


“Hope smiles from the threshold of the year to come, whispering, 'It will be happier.' ”
