I have wanted to start my own business since I was still in high school, I just never found my “Niche”. This fits, and it fits better than I could have ever expected it to, so in my book that means it was hand picked for me. This is the biggest reason why I am starting with soap, oh yeah, and my husband is on board… I only struggle when I am fighting against him, this time, he’s here with me.
I love creating things, whether it be the perfect cup of coffee or food that I just love. I love the research, the experimenting while making it and the reward in the finished product. I am rarely dissatisfied even when an attempt was “what seems” to be a complete failure. I love the knowledge I gain either way.
Soap is not the item I am addicted to, it is the process and art of how everyday items can come together to become something as beautiful and luxurious as the perfect lather. There is so much more to soap other than the pretty bar that smells gorgeous in the store. It can also be healing and change your perspective to the day just from the essential oils tickling your nose in the morning.
I could go on and on but I will try to keep this short. I have only touched the surface myself of what the craft of soap making holds for me. I am challenged with the idea of making better soap with every batch I have made. I look forward to making the perfect swirls and creating healing, beneficial recipes. I can even safely do some of my projects with the kids, which is the greatest of all greats.
I would love to keep a journal here to track my progress. I can write about how I am making it work out for me, so others can possibly find inspiration as well. How I am able (or not able, lol) to keep my family, household, and a business rolling. I am a real person and want everyone who reads this to understand that I am by no means striving for perfection. I am simply making the most from what I have, and I want to share it with you.
