a long silence
Posted on | November 16, 2009 | 6 Comments
it’s been hectic around here….the pre-christmas production frenzy is in full swing.
fortunately, it’s under control for once….we’ve imported a friend from brisbane to help us for a couple of weeks.
he has taken to soapmaking as though he’s been doing it all his life.
and with the help, our workshop has never looked more organised.
here are four identical orders going out today to four new shops we are supplying…the top layer is lemongrass and tea tree; thalassa; winter haiku:
and a bonus photo of six cats all in the kitchen at once….this hardly ever happens.

Thank God you are alive, I was starting to wonder. Then I thought this morning you were probably busy with the Chrissy stuff. I love reading your blog and miss it when you dont write for a few days.

your soaps are always so beautiful…but..I can’t get over the uniformity of those cats..they look ace!

we have an absolute passion for little stripey tigers around here.

Patti,
The photography of your soaps is always breathtaking. I just want to reach into my screen and pick up one of each bar and sniff it. I agree the uniformity and designs are so eye catching. The soap cards you include with your orders is a nice touch as well.
Wish I could fly over and visit your soap space and just sniff everything and help you wrap etc. Just being around all that great soap would be fun. I’m sure I’d want to make soap while I’m there as well. My soap area is tiny compared to yours.

hi michelle…thank you for your lovely comments. i bought myself a really good digital camera and learned how to use a lightbox and tripod and i’ve been happy with the photos too.
if you are ever in the area, let us know! we’d love to have a soap session with you! i’m always looking for people to cut soap!!!

Glad to hear that you’re keeping busy. Thanks for sharing the photos…that grey soap is my favorite, I think. (In the soap category, that is; there are no favorites amongst cats.)
