Catching Up and Resting Up!
Phew! I feel like it's only been a minute since our last newsletter went out, and yet so much has happened. I think we navigated all the changes from last time smoothly enough - or no one cared enough to tellme that I didn't. And since than I've prepped goats to go into the show ring, traveled to the show, showed said goats, travelled home and brought back a few nice awards. If you want the quick recap of our fall goat show you can find that here.
While all of that fun was going on, I still managed to collect a fabulous fall assortment of soaps for you this month! Today's release rebalances the need to restock some fan favorites like our Original Mechanic's Bar and our Gardener's Bar with my always burning desire to have new, fun, fresh, shiny designs. I have some brand-new scents debuting this month too. I still have a handful of our Halloween themed soaps left - as of this newsletter I have exactly one each of Night of the Witch and The Great Pumpkin left in stock.
The response to my last release was overwhelming and flattering, and I am thrilled that the designs hit home for so many of you. My fingers are crossed that this round is just as loved. Nothing makes me do the happy dance faster than seeing an order come in, and if you have ordered from me, you know that I can hardly wait to box them up and get them moving in your direction. Some days it's even within hours! As the sole designer, maker, packager, and shipper your orders are the motivation I need to keep on crafting. Plus, the proceeds go to the critters on the farm, which makes them happy too!
As a reminder, I do have some upcoming markets where you can shop all my inventory in person - both fairs support the local school systems with the admission fee and a silent auction. They are back-to-back weekends in November - see below for specifics.
And while I'm reminding you of stuff, I wanted to mention that despite the recent free-shipping threshold increase I had to establish, our auto-ship boxes remain free shipping! Auto-ship boxes are fully customizable, you can indicate what bars you want in each box, and they are a great value with a slight discount over "ala carte" orders. Auto-ship boxes take a bit of the risk off my inventory management for both product and materials, and I also get to pre-plan my schedule. Those tiny efficiencies enable me to pass that savings directly back to you.
Ok, that was a lot of words for this edition and I'm just going to close out with a huge thank you to everyone - I see you, I hear you, and I appreciate every one of you. If you made it this far, thank you! And go subscribe to my YouTube channel, you are my people. 💚
