I think I remembered now.

soap that I thought wouldn't turn out well due to too much clay in the colouring and tracing so fast that we just glopped it in. but with a bit of tlc, its ok.










:eek:)
 
the soap is named flower garden, and is a basic floral scent with different floral eo's such as geranium, jasmine in with rosewood and clary sage and a few others i can't quite remember. was going to sprinkle dried rose petals on top, but have decided to just put some in the packaging. anyhoo, you can imagine walking through some flower gardens and thats what it smells like. my sister in law designed the label for us, our surname is Skelton, and our company is called Skellies Smellies. We are in Auckland, NZ.
 
That's great!! Very original and very catchy, just what a product name should be.
I also love the sound of your scenting, that is just what I would like to try to achieve, last time I did floral it seized and ended up smelling sickly sweet rose so I had to rebatch with coconut milk and it toned it down a bit
 
Great name

So where in Auckland Kiwi ? My mum is in Pakuranga and brother and sister in law somewere nearby which escapes me just now.I did some schooling at Bayfield Primary and Auckland Girls Grammar.
I love your name Skellies Smellies, thats wild. Do you sell at the Gas Works Market?
 
I love the look of this soap - My GF and I are not huge fans of flowery soaps but it does look amazing.

We're out West in Glendene, but only for 3 weeks and then we're moving up north to live on the farm where the goats are and be closer to the beaches. I've only lived in Auckland 2 years, so not really an Aucklander. Thanks for all the positive comments, its great to get feedback. I have a few different scented soaps, I too wasn't too sure on the floral scent, but you know the mum's aged around 45-50, like my mum and all my friends mums just love this one the best...
 
haven't been selling at any markets, but probably will next year. have only been making soap 2 years, and this year I had baby no. 1 so soap can generally only be made at night. I currently only sell to baby groups and by word of mouth to friends etc, but its exciting to see how much people love it and where we could go with it. where do you guys sell?
