Those are gorgeous Ashley. I love your photography too. I'm trying to get some decent pictures up for my site, but so far I don't like what I have. Oh well. Good luck with your grand opening. I'm not too far behind. I'm working on my web site now and getting my packaging down.
 
Ashley what size are your bars if I may ask? I can't seem to get what I like....some are too big, some are too small. I haven't found my happy medium:)
 
Thanks everyone!

Dixie, I cut them 1 1/2" thick, but they shrink a bit. They are 3.5" wide and 2.25" tall.
 
Oh the anticipation!!! lovely!!! Must be a good feeling knowing that your work is about to start paying off, at least with getting open anyway :wink:

It was around March that I started the program... I just finished 9 weeks of it! It was really great - I suggest anyone in Canada look into it (it's called the "SEB Program" where I am (Ontario), but in BC they call it "SEP" I believe).

When are you opening for business Tanya? I know you have already been to some markets and stuff - but do you have an official grand opening date? :) Will you have a website?

Hi Ashley! I am playing with a free website to get a feel for how I want to present my products....once I firm up my final line (for now) I will be setting up something more definite. Before the end of the year is my expectation.

Tanya :)
 
Ashley - look at you go girl! I have to admit that the Sea Mist is the bauty for me, although they are all fantastic! Grand Openings are so exciting and I am beyond thrilled for you!

Congrats on all your hard work to get here lady!

good luck with your new endeavor!

your soaps are lovely-i don't know which ones i like most, but the sea mist, lovespell and cool waters are knock-outs!

i especially like the thicker, more substantial heft of the bars. they should last thru numerous showers!

good for you! :D
 
I love them! They look so PURRRDY! I gravitate towards the "plainer" bars, thus I love the Rosemary & Mint, Tea Tree & Clay, Oatmeal and shoot, I can't remember... but you get my point.

Congrats!
 
Are you selling just on line? If in stores, how do you wrap those bigs bars!
The look SO nice, love em.

Thank you!

Nope, stores too! :) I hope anyway. I'm packaging them in clear cello bags that have been hole punched so the air can flow through. They'll have clear glossy labels on them and tied with a black ribbon (the lids on all my B&B stuff are black too).

I'll post a picture once I get a bunch packaged in the next few days! :) Thanks again for your compliment on them!

Beautiful soaps! I absolutely love the scents and colors. I am new to the soaping thing and I am trying to start my own business creating soaps, bath washes, and bubble baths, any suggestions on Website design and expectations?
