The Road to Earth Day 2012

  


We are so excited to have our soaps in the hands of so many wonderful stars. This year we are celebrating Earth Day 2012 with a plethora of soaps that were gifted to Environmentally Conscious Celebrities such as the ones below in this photograph. 


I thought I would share the process of our soapmaking and some of the ingredients that went into these wonderful organic soaps.






We used only Sustainable Organic  Palm Oil, Organic Sunflower and Organic Coconut Oil in these fabulous good for you soaps!



 Our Shop is named after this beautiful Creek that runs through Houston County Georgia. We wanted something to reflect the natural nature of this very private area of middle Georgia. Please enjoy a little visual therapy and know that when you use our soaps you are truly using something made from Nature
