Yes, I make them from scratch so I have full control over the ingredients. Right now I'm looking for a venue to retail out of, but I'm already getting repeat requests for certain recipes. Especially the ones for people with allergies, or with ethical restrictions to certain products.

Missy do you have a web-site that we can look at? I used to get this oatmeal goat's milk soap from this little town in Oregon that was to die for!!! They also sold a cranberry soap that smelled sooo good but cranberry season didn't last very long so this soap sold out super fast. I'd love to know what all you have available.
OK guys, I tried I really did but I can't seem to figure out how to get these pics I took on Saturday from my phone to my computer. I used to just email them to myself but now Verizon has changed that capability in my new phone and that is now a whole separate service that I must sign up for. I can still text pics without an extra charge but emailing a photo is a different story! I'm getting to hate Verizon! They charge you a fortune right off the bat and now every little thing you do is dinged separately unless you pay for the mega package which I am not about to do since we are trying to cut costs everywhere we can right now not add to them.
Any ideas on how to get these pics off my phone and onto the computer? I do have them saved onto an SD card but my laptop and my PC are ancient things and there are no compatible ports for an SD card on either of them.
Won't be on much longer tonight cause I have a really early day tomorrow but hopefully I can check in tomorrow evening. Company is arriving tomorrow though so no guarantees. Shoot I may have to wait until after T-day to get these photos done.
Oh I did get Mama added to the OP yesterday though. She looks so pretty posing with her ribbons!
Just in case I don't get back on before the holiday...
!!!!! HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYBODY!!!!!

I only showed one bir but I brought Jack to get a new home and he did. Thaks for your help Sheryl.

SunnyDawn, as a matter of fact, just 15 minutes ago I put in a 10-lb batch of goat's milk-oatmeal-honey soap to saponify. A client ordered 20 bars for Christmas, and so far she's referred 3 people who want it. I usually make it with no fragrance or color but the honey itself, though in a few batches I'll add a tiny bit of fragrance... tonight's batch had 1/3 of it made with an almond biscotti fragrance.
My 3 basic recipes are the GOH soap, a facial salt soap, and a vegan body soap. I normally add fragrance and color to these, but can make them completely natural. A client tried the facial soap with no fragrance/color, and within 2 weeks was calling asking for more... turns out she's allergic to nearly everything, and this one improved her skin instead of wrecking it.
Oh yeah, and I can customize a recipe if there is something very specific that you want or need. I even have a cranberry fragrance sitting in my soap cupboard.
As far as a website... not at the moment. But that's a good thing to start building while I'm waiting for the seed catalogs to start arriving.
And P.S... I mentioned your black copper marans to a friend of mine today, while I was touring her coop. Her daughter really wants a chocolate egger, so when you have pullets available she would like your contact information.

Cool, I'll pm you my contact information. I would love some of the goats milk/oatmeal/honey soap and I do like fragrance but not nearly as much as most makers use. I think some restraint when adding fragrance is a very good idea.
Almond biscotti sounds yummy! You can PM me cost per bar. I will be hatching in spring so you can give yout friend my contact info now or wait until then. Thanks!

Oh thank you Elizabeth!!! If they aren't expensive I should just buy one since I take a lot of photos from my phone.
Where did you get yours?
BTW I felt bad after I left that I forgot to get pics of you and your family and of GetLost80 (Cecelia) and her family too. Once I took pics and put my phone away I didn't think about it again.
