    It's not all that it's cracked up to be.

    I'm finding myself feeling blah about my business right now. @AliOop got me really thinking about what I am doing. I filed dissolution paperwork with my state today for my LLC. I use a company called Zen Business to take care of all my paperwork but it costs $600 a year to keep it going and I'm...

    Nurture has my heart 💘

    Can I just say again how awesome Nurture Soap is? I went in and ordered some neon rainbow micas, titanium dioxide and a fragrance oil. Went to check out and had forgotten that I had credit. They let me use $42 off my order in credits I had earned! Amazing right? This is the kind of company I...

    THIS is customer service

    I placed an order with Nurture Soap last night. It shipped this morning. Other soap supply companies take notice. 😍

    Very eye opening

    I'm subscribed to Sunshine Soap and Candle Company on Youtube and this video scared the crap out of me personally. We have to be careful as business owners.

    Soapmakers on Youtube

    This is a carry on from another thread. I've seen a few people who have claimed that some soapmakers on Youtube give bad and misleading information. No names please. What kind of information have you found to be bad or misleading that would be helpful for new people?

    Favorite stick blender

    So I did some photography on my soaps to put on my store and I never noticed it before and I'm horrified at the small air bubbles in my soaps. I really thought I had been so careful too. I'm pretty sure it's my stick blender, it's a cheapie off Amazon. What brands of stick blenders do you...

    Made a decision on e-commerce

    So everything is ready. Got insurance from the soap guild this morning. Originally and all through making my YouTube videos (which I still haven't released just yet) I was planning on going with Etsy but I have changed my mind. I've decided to go with Shopify. I think in the long term it will...

    New Cutter on the way

    So I was trimming some soaps up today with my Brambleberry 12 bar wooden cutter and broke 4 wires. I was using the end wire because I cannot make a straight cut to save my life. The soap was mostly cured so it's not surprising they broke. I was trying to be slow and careful though. I use the...

    Blackberry Ginger Ale Sea Salt Soap

    I went ahead and ordered cavity molds from WSP, the euro cavity and highly recommend it. Sturdy and easy to work with. Better outcome this time!

    Post your latest blunder (if you want!)

    Okay soaping family my latest blunder happened yesterday while making a batch of sea salt soap. I wanted to try Irishlass's recipe but I didn't have any coconut milk. I had some dried whole goats milk so I decided to use that. So normally I only use 1 tbsp ppo but I figured I would need to...
