All are Welcome Here
Since we opened our brick and mortar in 2014, we have strived to have a welcoming environment to everyone regardless of race, religion, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, country of origin, age, and even ability to pay.
We want to be warm and welcoming within our walls and we want those good vibes to spread into the community.
Finding Treasures for My Customers
I went to America's Mart looking for treasures and I found them! I wasn't very optimistic about finding things that would complement the bath products, teas, men's grooming, and cozy things that I already carry, but I found a few things that are practical and fun! Most are supporting small family businesses too--how could it be any better?

The Glamorous Life of an Entrepreneur
Soapy Gnome Goals for 2016
Sometimes I run across folks that think my business is cute or a glorified hobby. I'm not trying to pay for my soap habit, I am building an honest to goodness business. The day it becomes a glorified hobby I'll stop making soap.
Life Long Learning And Masterminds
Before becoming a soap maker, I was a teacher of high school kids. As a teacher, I firmly believe that to live life to the fullest, one should be a life-long learner.
Learning new things has always been a lot of fun for me. I've taken classes in pottery, painting, spinning wool, yoga, photography, dog agility...the list goes on.
