Not very many people like Bergamot that I have come across...I love the citrusy scent.
I like your choices! I have Honeysuckle Rose with bits of rose petals on top...a very lovely soap :)

It's one of my very favorite scents...Linden Blossom is another one!
Good Luck on your Etsy store!

Posted - Mar 01 2009 : 8:15:56 PM Christine....I make beautiful Lemon Verbena Soap with Calendula petals...it is curing and in about 2-weeks time I can wrap and ship. Can you wait??? Please do.... I would love to have you try some ![](icons/icon_smile_big.gif)
And my "signature" Lilac is also curing....
We have made about 60-pounds of soap in the last month ![](icons/icon_smile_approve.gif)
Alee gave me a wonderful recipe for coffee soap and that is sitting on my dining room table waiting to be stacked and cured as well. It is a lovely creamy coffee color with bits of coffee grounds. I wish you could smell it!
I will post when they are wrapped and ready to go.
Thanks Christina!!

Diana,
We are knee deep in curing our summer soap and yes I have 2 big batches of Lilac curing.....Every season I have my tables set with white tablecloths and a big old antique white pitcher and bowl...the pitcher is filled with very artfully done silk Lilac flowers and stems. Its my signature! During one summer show, actually our first one, a sweet elderly Amish woman came up to me and said. I walked all this way to your table to smell the lilacs! The look on her face when she realized they were artifical....She thought they were real and could even smell them from a distance. We just smiled.![](icons/icon_smile_clown.gif)
I will send you some when it is cured Diana. Thanks!! |
