I began making soap in November. I enjoy this new adventure and already have several "customers". I am praying this new little business will soar. If anyone has had success with selling their homemade products, let me know. Here is a shot of a few of my soaps.
They look Great! Hey have you checked out ETSY.com. I have a few friends that are selling their Homemade products on Etsy. Etsy is geared towards artists and crafters. Go check it out and I have bought several items off of etsy lately!
ReplyDeleteThe photo looks great! May I get some of than Lavender and Vanilla please?!? I love your soap!
ReplyDeleteThey look great Alyce! I love your packaging and the pretty ribbons :)
ReplyDeleteI figure out a way I could keep mine packaged (similar to this) and still be able to have people smell them, I cut little (almost invisible) slits in the bottom and people seem to automatically stick their noses there :P
Lovin' your new blog layout too! :)
good luck with your new endeavor! I can't think of anything better to do than to create :) When you love what you do, the customers, and the support from family and friends seems unstoppable!
ReplyDeleteGood luck! I think getting the word out around school is a good place to start. Also be generous in giving your own soap as gifts...then after folks use & love it, they'll want to BUY more for themselves and to give as gifts.
ReplyDeleteCool! Way to go! Start selling those babies on Etsy!
ReplyDeleteI totally agree about gining as gifts so others will know it is good and they like it...you ought to have a giveaway or something and some of your bloggers will help get the word out...Alos etsy is a neat place for crafters...check my blog out today and I have a post about etsy today...it is really adictive place to visit.
ReplyDeleteGood Luck...I did buy some oil to try some scrubs and then I am going to try the soap. I saw those kits and stuff at hobby lobby and I am going to see if I like the scrubs and will get back and get soap stuff also...just for me and gifts.
Thanks for the heads up on the soap stuff at Hobby Lobby last week.
