Daisy Acres Soap

The Tahlequah Farmer's Market ended this past Saturday. After standing in the chilly wind for 4 hours the vendors that were present decided there wasn't much point in setting up through the end of the month. The vegetable growers had let us know that their gardens were just about played out anyway. But it was a good year and I'm really looking forward to the next season.

This early cessation did mean that if I'm going to sell soap online I need to get in gear! I had signed up for an online shop and started taking pictures of my products to upload. Therein lies the problem. I discovered I'm really not very good at taking product pictures! At the FM people pick up my soap, "mmm, that smells lovely" and then buy it. I guess that's not going to happen online and so I'm trying to take pictures that show my soap in a positive light. Taking pictures inside was clearly not working so I went to the barn and found some lovely green hay and used that as a backdrop. On Tuesday, I went by Spring Creek and tried to get some good shots by the rushing water. It was really pretty and peaceful but I kept slipping around on the rocks.

Anyway, check out my online shop and if you don't see anything you like check back soon and also keep in mind that I can do custom orders.

Today...I made a batch of Egg Yolk soap in Honey & Shea. It's a buttery yellow color and smells good even now before it's cured.
