I have searched and cannot find this but I know I saw it. Seems like it was orange and maybe had orage peel in it too? Am I crazy? Do not answer that. I would like to find who makes it. LaVonna

I think that was me...Farmhouse Kitchen Hand Scrub...made with dark brewed coffee and grounds, with spices and sweet orange essential oil. Does that sound familiar?
Melody, I got the soap today. This was a day that everything went wrong. Even at the post office I dropped my purse and spilled everything out in the parking lot. Then went in and found I had a package. It was so nice to be surprised with your package. It just smells wonderful.
I wonder do you ever wholesale price it in larger orders? I have a shop and have not offered soap there but this is very nice. I really love the scent of all of them.

LaVonna,
My timing has been impeccable as of late...LOL
Don't you hate it when that happens? Right now I have requisitioned a old leather backpack and sling the darn thing over my shoulder; less likely to drop unless I do!
I thought I would add a few more scents to the mix for you to sample and I am so glad you like my soap. Right now I have Clary Sage curing and tomorrow I will be making Tea Tree.
Yes! I do wholesale price for a little shop at about 3-hours drive from here called Mackinac Island. I haven't been to the island in many years and so my husband and I are going to "pop" in this summer and see where my soap is sold. This place Lavonna... is so beautiful-It's where the movie Somewhere in Time was filmed with Christopher Reeves!! The island boasts the longest veranda in the world, which happens to wrap around a very large and stately hotel. The streets are lined with lovely restored Victorian homes and sweet little specialty shops and there is no car traffic allowed only bicycles and horse and carriage--Very quaint and very, very busy in the summertime.I am so excited about the prospect of supplying this little place with my handcrafted soap!
I would LOVE to have my soap in your shop LaVonna!!
Drop me an e-mail and we can work out all of the details.
I have never been to Mackinac Island but was close once. And I so wanted to go but there was not enough time. I loved Somewhere in Time.
I will write you. My place is far from this other shop. Mine is in a large black glass building on the side of the freeway in Dallas. My business is that I am a massage therapist/ herbalist. One area of the office I have herbal products. This year I have been asked by several (who normally buy at whole Foods) that if I have any extra produce from my garden they would like to buy it. I could sure sell a lot of eggs there but do not have too many chickens now. But I find that many of my customers are wanting real produce picked this morning and I think soap would fit too. I really preach to my people about the toxi things that are in cosmetics and cleaning products. I really appreciate the fact that you had no bad things listed in your ingredients.
I will write to you direct. I do have to say I am jealous of the trip you will make this summer. LaVonna
