the way it was meant to be
I'm continuing my habit of late posts. :-)
I spent this past year just being at the Farmers Market (plus one last minute craft show). I'm planning to add in some carefully vetted craft show in addition to the Farmers Market (my 18th! year). I will try to post that info here, as well as on FB and IG.
With my markets done, I am focused on making more product, new product; I'm looking for new scent combinations and some new candles. But to make all this soapy goodness, I need to purchase supplies. Unfortunately, the cost of those ingredients has gone up - 20-30%in just one year. And shipping costs have gone up, as well. I suggested several times over the past few years that I would raise prices, but did not. I did not think it was right or proper to ask folks to pay more when everything else around them was costing more. But I can't wait any longer. Effective Jan 1, 2024, I will be raising the price of my soaps. While my ingredients costs are up roughly 25%, my prices are raising less than 10% - to $7.50/bar. A few other prices will be adjusted, but many will stay where they are.
I know you have many options for personal care products and I am humbled that you chose mine and continue to do so for yourselves and for gifts. I promise to do my best to provide quality products and keep prices as low as possible.
Remember, if you're looking for something special, drop me a line. We can discuss your parameters and hash out the details. I've done many special orders; a specific scent, wedding and shower favors, etc. Call me, we'll talk.
That's all for now. See you at the market.
This is me at one of the HSCG conferences that I regularly volunteer at.
