It’s soap season once again here at Plum Blossom Farm. The time of year where I’m making LOTS of felted soaps in preparation for upcoming fairs and this year’s holiday season. I try to create a variety of colors and shapes to suit all personal tastes. I usually offer four different scents: lavender, jasmine, cucumber and coconut. This year I’ve decided to try to give customers more options by offering 6 to 8 fragrances. In addition to my regulars I will offer a different combination of these scents at each fair: pomegranate, oatmeal stout, peppermint/eucalyptus, sandalwood and the gardener’s soap- tangerine/bergamot.
I love to smell the familiar fragrances and get creative with the fiber dye color combinations. There does start to be some monotony though after the 100th soap!
