Bramble Berry Soap Swap 2011

I just love swaps.  It's a way to try other soapmaker's products and see the wonderful creativity that is out there. It's also a way for others to try your products.  I saw that Bramble Berry was hosting a soap swap and luckily I caught it in time and joined.  I sent in my Oatmeal Stout and Raspberry Porter Soap and in return I got some pretty good goodies from others.  Here is my haul from the swap.

the one with the apple is pretty cool and wonder how she did that.  It looks like a puzzle piece set in there.  I think my favorite is the Oatmeal Glycerin bar.  It is layered and has oatmeal just under the top and it looks so pretty.  Got lots of soap to try, yay! Can't wait for the next one.

Mountain Market Day

This was the first market day and it was such a big success that they are going to do it again in the Fall. It was so hot out there, I thought that I was going to melt and by the end of the day, I was worn out. Despite how hot it was, there were plenty of shoppers and I did great in sales. I met a couple of other soapmakers including Amanda from the Soaps and Lotion Forum. I had a great time and can't wait to do it again. Oh, and how can I forget, I had one shop owner from Georgia ask about carrying some of my products in her shop in Georgia. So, all in all I say that I had a very good day. The pics are of my new set-up, so let me know your opinion. BTW, ignore what's under the table, lol.
