Here is a tutorial of me making our 'Terra Crystal' soap. There are tons of pics and even a short video! Enjoy :D http://adkaromatherapy.blogspot.com/

Hey soapers! I have been promising a tutorial on some of my methods for a while now and finally started yesterday. I took over 50 pics and one video while making this soap! lol It is not easy to photograph yourself at work while you work. Some of these pics were taken with my nose while my...

A little back story for this one. My wife has been a fan of Duran Duran since back in the day and she still follows them avidly. She made a perfume named lebon and actually got some attention online from the band. So she wants to roll with this attention and asks me to make a soap for the...

Omg this is a crazy, crazy month! I can't believe I am keeping up with it by myself. Sorry I haven't had much time to peruse the forums lately, but here are a couple of pics of a bar we call Perfect Peace. I am getting tired of the smell of lavender...but the customer is always right :lol...

Been doing some subtle tweeks on the looks of this soap. It is starting to look a little cosmic now...it is scented with our 'Aquamist' eo blend (15x orange, bergamot, patchouli) As always, my apologies to any slow internet connections out there. I like big pics :wink:

Mucking around a bit with colors...I spent about 20 min. just coming up with the caramel/browns in this :lol: (I like to mix my own colors from oxide powders) This is scented with a blend of essential oils and naturally derived oakmoss, very earthy (hence the color scheme). I think next...

This one has a story behind it. So this is my first year doing craft fairs and the response has been very nice. But I have a (temporary) problem. A rather important shipment of oils and EOs was subjected to a random package inspection at the Canadian border and as of today is more than one...

Been playing around with the look of this soap, scented with essential oils including peppermint and rosemary. I wish I had more time to play :cry:

:( http://www.ccohs.ca/headlines/text186.html In the epic tragic irony department: Sunscreen has tons of chromium dioxide in it. Be aware of how you handle this stuff! Avoid breathing in the dust! Ask your supplier for an updated MSDS and follow it's precautions. Have a nice day!

Glad to say we made out pretty well, and I have a very full schedule for the next couple of months. Now that I have a ton of stock I need to make some display shelves. Wow I love this stuff! Minding the store... My day laborer taking a break Lessons learned: Don't hide...

I found this awesome link on etsy today http://www.socialmention.com/ Put your business name in and it will search the wide world over to find everyone that is blogging or mentioning your business name. Enjoy :D

Craft fair season leaves so little time for playing with soap :roll: I made this yesterday with the help of my 3 year old daughter (she helped pick colors and spread the layers). We like micas. A lot. I can't wait for her to get old enough to help with wrapping them :lol: We used 6...

Here are two styles of clear M&P that I am playing with atm... This one has a blend of EOs that smell like chai tea, so I went kinda clear and swirly with it: And this one has a lavender blend of EOs that is very relaxing: As usual, sorry for not re-sizing but...

I've been getting offers on etsy lately that ask for samples in exchange for 'promotion'. Looks to me like I'd be making them money for free, but as I am pretty new to etsy I thought I should ask if anyone out there has ever tried any of these services? If so who? Any tangible result other...

I just came up with this design a couple of days ago. Listing it on etsy as 'Forest Jade Fantasy' to go with the Sage/Fennel EO blend that it is scented with. I'd would love any suggestions anyone may have for an alternate name. What does this soap make you think of? Thanks for any and all...

A sampling of some of our styles, with apologies for not resizing images...

My name is Tom and I have been working with Clear glycerin M&P off and on over the last 14 years. It is by far my favorite medium, anything that can be done in soap can be done prettier in Clear soaps. Recently my wife, Gretchen, and I started an aromatherapy business (ADKaromatherapy) and I...
