Couple of batches of aroma beads to create beautiful air “freshies” - Beach Sunset and a nice floral.
Next show not till 2/14 in Va. If you need soap for a bday or Val Day, I can certainly help you with that.
Yes! I did make a soap for 2/14 ♥️, I’ll do an inventory this week and share what I have in stock if you’re interested 🐠.

Looking to new and old shows in the New Year! Any recommendations? Remember I’m now located in Northern OBX 🧜🏻‍♀️

No hurry to make new soaps since my next show isn’t until March 😞 I’m sure something will pop up before then (fingers crossed). Or my wholesale accounts will need spring soaps. 🙏🏼

shore soap is playful

Soap playful? Yep, when you put Disney princesses or Pokemon characters into clear soap it brings a smile to so many faces! Children marvel at the toys embedded in clear soap. And parents love the thought that their kids might actually wash a little better with an incentive.

I love being out in the public at local craft and art festivals, especially when children come, too! But I do dream of the day when I might be able to have a store front in my own hometown or one closeby. Until then, find us at craft fairs in NC, SC and VA (dates on facebook) and online (www.shoresoap.com).

With a name like “shore soap” I began by creating soaps in the shape of shells. People loved them! And they are still some of my best sellers. I continue to try to make them look like they were found laying on a beach (but sometimes I add too much glitter to the mermaid soap :). My best selling bar of soap is “Beach Bar” which resembles the beach with an oatmeal base as the sand, then one to two shades of blue for the ocean water and white caps on the top. It smells wonderfully like the ocean!

Shore soaps are currently created with a variety of Stephenson soap bases (https://www.stephensonpersonalcare.com/). These are glycerin based which also include goats milk, shea butter and oatmeal. I use mica for the variety of colors for bars and shaped soaps. For scents, I use essential and fragrance oils. There just isn’t a watermelon essential oil and I must have it for my watermelon soap in the summer!
