I've used log molds for years, but after seeing the gorgeous swirls you and other people have done, I think it's time to get a slab mold and start playing!

Your soaps came out looking great! I read a lot of posts recently about swirling, including the kind of swirl that you did, and sure wish I had time to experiment. Keep up the great work.

Don't have a lot of time to peruse your site, but on the soap page you state "Goat is wonderful for the skin...." and I'm guessing that you meant to say goat milk? Also, to make "dermatologist" and "mica" plural, you do not use an apostrophe. I love the colors you used on your site.

From a visual standpoint, I would remove the gingham background and just stick with the lavender color in the left column. The gingham is too distracting from the product presentation. I'd also photograph your products with a white or light colored background to make the product the focal point of the picture.

My wholesale sales are down which tells me that retailers are cutting back on inventory. Conversely, website sales are up a bit which I'm taking to mean that more people are shopping from home.

Anyone here do Christmas crafts, wreaths in particular?

To preserve the quality of FOs and EOs, they must be stored in glass (amber or blue--the idea is dark glass) or aluminum containers (pricey). Remember too to store fragrances in cool, not hot areas. The plastic bottles in which fragrances are shipped are for shipping purposes only, not for permanent storage, as the oils will deteriorate the plastic and do not protect the expensive contents!
