Practical Tips for Time Management?


Since I've opened my own studio time has been short and I am finding I need more of it!  Today I am asking you   how do you manage your time between blog posts, facebook, twitter, your own website, making your own products, shipping, advertising...not mention if you have a family when do they get your time?  I have read a lot of information on the subject but I cannot seem to follow it?! LOL!

Today I am asking you what do you do to save time? Keep organized?  Do you have someone to help you?

Happy Holidays~

Introducing Mary....

We started a really cute tradition last year, We invited Mary Christmas (the Christmas Elf) to com visit us. Boy were we in for a treat!  She loves to get into things...  Pop up in places you would never expect..  Even eat Candy!  My daughter absolutely loves her and her antics.  Mary arrives around the 1st December and then hops a ride back with Santa on Christmas Eve.  Then we will have to wait for her until next year.  But while she's with us we get to enjoy all of her antics!  The story behind it is..  She comes from the North Pole to watch how good or bad my daughter Ivy is..  Then she reports to him Christmas eve.. So each morning my daughter comes down stairs to search for Elf Mary and see what she got into during night ~

 Well this morning this is what we found~



Evidently, She was hungry last night... Now the rule is if we invite her..my daughter is responsible for clean up of her mischief!


But I had to laugh the other morning when I found her on the printer.... COPYING HERSELF!





If you have kids or grandkids...  you can start this fun tradition too.  This website explains all about it!



Happy Holidays From all of us at Mossy Creek Soap!

Product Review

I just found the coolest mold to use in my NEW Classes .  You can reuse them, fill with new soap  just for your students or use them to test out new batches!  I love these...  I was looking for way my new students would be able to take the soap they just made home with them.  Take a look at what I got in today!



You can even get liners for them too!




I hope you'll be able to enjoy these too.  I got them from Chesnut Farms.
Check them out! 

Thanks,

I have so many things to be Thankful for!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYONE!

This past year has been one of monumental milestones one of which includes "The Hive"! (if you want to join click here!) Thank you Melissa and John for creating a venue where we could share our businesses with so many people from different walks of life!  I never knew how much I would enjoy sharing my passion and all the support I get from all of you~

Last weekend proved to be instrumental to my current venture into the Soapmaking Teaching Venue in our NEW location!  I was able to make many contacts with so many people that want to learn and experience my own passion of soapmaking.  For all of that I am so very Thankful.   I am thankful that this time I can finally join the ranks of Brick and Mortar Business Owners.  For that I am Thankful~  

I am thankful for all my friends & family who despite my own wackiness and drive to succeed~  continue to stick it out with me.

To all my wonderful clients who enjoy our SOAP so much~  Thank you! We will continue to make soap and share our goodies with you.
