And Now For Something Completely Different...

As many of you know, my Lime-a-licious soap was a bit of a flop. It was gorgeous but the fragrance had morphed and well, I didnt want to sell Vinyl scented soap. So I went about fixing it. The way us soap makers fix soap is by a process called "Rebatching." We take the soap, melt it down again, and fix whatever problems there might be. Upon doing this with the Lime-a-licious I realized quickly (and do did my daughter) that the color was no longer going to be quite so appetizing.

Quick jump to another story - At the last Art Market you may have seen my small menagerie of stuffed pets. Poor lonely Davey is the heart throb of the bunch. Well, he couldn't help himself... I didn't let him outside quickly enough this afternoon and Dragon Splat soap was born. Davey says he's sorry.. but hey, even a dinodragon can't hold it -that- long!

Dragon Splat soap is a great gag gift and will be available in about a week for $2.00 per splat. It is scented in Lime-a-licious. Get it while its hot! Erm.. uh.. eew.

New Product Spotlight - Soy Spa Candles in Glass

Bodyluxe by Shawna's Soy Spa Candles are perfect for that peaceful, quiet time to yourself. They add the finishing touch to your personal pampering, filling your room with your favorite scent.

What's so great about Soy Spa Candles? Soy wax is a renewable resource, produced by soybean farmers right here in the USA. It burns cleaner than paraffin wax, leaving very little soot behind and does not increase carbon dioxide in the air. Soy candles can give off more fragrance than paraffin because of the lower melting point of the wax, and the larger wax pool it creates.

Take home a Soy Spa Candle today and smell the difference for yourself!

The candles in glass come in either a 4.5oz or 9oz glass container. The 4.5oz Soy Spa Candle will burn for 25-35 hours. The 9oz Soy Spa Candle will burn for 45-55 hours. Each candle is hand poured so slight color variations will occur making each candle positively unique.

I still have a few of the 4.5oz Travel Tins available, but when they're gone, they're gone. I can no longer get these containers.
