So Miss Whiney got accepted into another show - The Ocrafolk Fest in Ocracoke. Got my room booked so I'm ready for the show in June! I will definitely stick around and listen to the music - great performers last time I was there.
So I live almost directly across from Duck across the sound and Ocracoke is a ferry ride across from Hatteras (just reserved a condo for that weekend). Waaaay south :)

Complained about shows and now I see that I’ve been accepted to a big show in Florida. Which means I can visit with one of my oldest friends (not in age mind you!).

Frustrated with how hard it is to get accepted into the big shows 😡. Guess it’s a “live and learn” year. And yes I lose $ with each rejection - up to $142 so far. At least I’ve got the big show in VA beach April 17-19 at the convention center.
In the meantime, I’ll go on a cruise!

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!
