Running a business is hard work. Who’d have thought it?

Wow, Internet. WOW. Can I just say firstly, the support for our business launch last month was astounding and fabulous and I am so grateful to every single one of you.

Yes, I know I’ve said all this before, but it bears repeating, because FEELINGS.

In the middle of all the regular orders, we’ve also had some large wholesale orders popped in to be ready for Christmas. After three weeks of panicky making, I can honestly say that everything ordered is curing and will be ready by mid-November. Thank GOODNESS.

It was a lot of fun and a lot of work to make that much soap. I swear the soap dishes get it on in the middle of the night and by the time I come around to wash them in the morning there are little baby dishes everywhere. If they’re not having babies I’m not quite sure how I managed to dirty ten moulds, five jugs, three buckets and every single spatula I own over the course of one day. Magic, clearly.

It’s the school holidays now and this means I have minions home to help pack soap and stick stickers, which is a small consolation in the face of overwhelming Minecraft and the fact SOMEONE keeps changing my Spotify station to Ke$ha.

Kill me.

Free time is at a premium and the kids are taking up most of it. Sorry Internet.

In the meantime, have some soap photos.

Everyone loves soap photos.

PS: vanilla lip balm is back in stock, so if you were waiting to buy, here’s your chance!

It looks too pretty to use, but I’m using mine anyway, I love how soft it feels. My younger two kids are happy with the ones I chose for them, the older two I haven’t given any yet, can’t decide which to give. I may have to let them do the choosing.
