Samples

Well, I took a piece of my pomegranate lemonade soap from my inventory and took a bath with it. I noticed something very sad about it. It had no scent at all. It lathered just like all my others and was creamy and great, but there was no scent. I went and sniffed all my other soaps that are for sale and they all had a strong lovely scent. It seems that the pomegranate lemonade soaps don't last long when it comes to the scent. I have at least 10 bars of this soap left and I am not going to throw them away. Instead I'll just add them to the list of things I will give out as samples. I figure that it's better to give them to customers then to sell them or throw them away. I also have a naturally unscented soap that I will be giving away as well. The soaps feel just as great as my scented ones, but they just have no scent. I won't be making anymore cold process pomegranate lemonade soap because the scent doesn't last at all and I like things that will last for a little while.

I have quite a few samples that I want to give away as well. I am trying to empty out my sample box so you may find more samples than normal and some will probably be the same scent. It's all in the spirit of the sale as well. :)

Cleaning is a lot of work

Cleaning is a lot of work. I didn't realize how long it would take me to reorganize and move everything around in my new area. I've been doing it since 3pm and I'm still only half done. My new shelves were not brought to me today and instead will be brought to me tomorrow. I will do everything I can to get everything up and running on Saturday but please be prepared for a Monday opening. I'm going to work as fast as I can to get this store open Saturday evening. I will have a 20% off sale and maybe a little more. I have not decided on that one yet. I will take the rest of the day off to rest my back. Tomorrow will be more organizing and cleaning. I have all my cleaning tools ready to go!

Making Changes & Sale

I have been enjoying my vacation and today I made a fresh batch of sugar scrub and bodywash. I used my new formula for the bodywash and it still feels the same but with less odor. Yay! It smells like soap now. I am also in the process of rearranging everything in my work room. New shelves are being put up tomorrow so I will be moving things, organizing and cleaning. I also need to look at what soaps I have left and what soaps I need to make. My shop will open Saturday evening if my shelves are all up tomorrow. I will have a 20% off sale on everything in the store, soaps may be discounted more, but I have not decided. The discount will already be taken off the products when they are put up. So, I will actually need to take down everything for a few minutes so I can readjust the prices when I open up the store. I just want to thank everyone for your love and support and have a great summer!!
