Straight Into the Soap Bar Hall of Fame

We had a group of six girls under the age of ten come to Otion today to celebrate a birthday and they made some AMAZING bars! In record speed no less. Take a look at some of their first ever soap creations--I'm impressed! Great job girls, you made our job easy :-)

Birthday parties get to reserve the upstairs for a little extra room and privacy for food and presents if they wish. Plus, they get to make what we call a 'Party Loaf,' which is a conglomerate of everybody's extra soap in a loaf mold. It is chopped up and shared among the group at the end.

Have a wonderful weekend everyone! Kat will be away next week to work at a stone-sculpting workshop. Maybe she'll share pictures when she gets back!

Soap Bar Hall of Fame

The Soap Bar at Otion has been super busy lately, which has resulted in some pretty awesome soapy masterpieces (from first-time soapers no less)! A couple of days ago, a small group came in and started with one base. Three hours later they had made 8 pounds of soap! Here are a couple dinosaurs they made:

Great job!


This afternoon we had three generations of soap makers-- grandma, mom, and two daughters. They ended up with over twenty bars of soap from 4 pounds of goats milk base. Take a look at some of their amazing Hall of Fame worthy bars.
