Restocking our bath bombs. These should be dry and ready for packaging/retail by Saturday. Front to back: sandalwood (orange), honeysuckle (green), lavender (light purple). I still have a few more varieties to make tomorrow (plumeria, gardenia, eucalyptus, lemon mint). I'll also make some bath truffles. #bathbombsarelife #bathbombsofinstagram #bathbombs (at Whole Life Soaps) https://www.instagram.com/p/CM3NZ0zLIkx/?igshid=n0ukea77trut

Fresh cut lavender. I love the new look. The spots are real lavender buds. Our second best-selling soap after charcoal. #freshcutfridays #freshcutsoap #lavenderessentialoil #lavender #lavendersoap (at Whole Life Soaps) https://www.instagram.com/p/CMV0qU_Lvav/?igshid=ruozrmqzp6xv

***Coming Soon*** I've been working on the 2020 haiku soap featuring the winning haiku by Christina Tsang-Bernas. The soap turned out beautifully, but the stamp letters need adjusting. I also lost a letter "i" at the start of the second line. So, I'll be fixing that (the poem is below). The theme this year was "Transformation in Nature." To keep with the theme, I used my remainders by cutting them (or not) into smaller shapes to transform into new, fresh soap. It honestly reminds me of candy. It has a sweet smell, a bit like Lemongrass but not as heavy. For the cut, I went old school, using a rustic, hand cut. The bars are all similar, but not as exact as my regular line. This is intentional. This soap should be ready for sale by February 1st. It will be available through June. ----- Haiku: Reflect on Transformation in Nature Matter is never lost I eat the fruit of the tree You are buried beneath ----- Be sure to enter next September. It could be you on a bar of soap. And the $100 prize isn't too bad, either. (at Whole Life Soaps) https://www.instagram.com/p/CI3GPkjrdMs/?igshid=iakbkn6kt28w

Our Blarney Stone soap. It's our take on Irish Spring. I love it. The speckled look was a happy accident, but I like how it turned out. #irishspringstyle #blarneystonesoap (at Whole Life Soaps) https://www.instagram.com/p/CFGHkMmJd-h/?igshid=ozmx0x8vkl51
