My first craft show!!!

Soon I'll be making another huge step for my little business! Yep, I'm gonna do a craft show!!! Thanks to my cousin Katie (owner of Kdee Massage) who found this show! She will also be there selling some of her homemade goodies, and hopefully doing some massages.

Here is the info:
DATE: July 2nd. 2011 TIME: 9:00am to 6:00pm
PLACE: Floor ...& Decor Outlets parking lot on 59th. and Bell Rd.
5880 W. Bell Rd. Glendale Az. 85308
There will also be food and music :) and what is really cool is that all the money earned from booth rentals goes towards breast cancer research!

Tattoo Soaps - Day 48 of 365 days of Soap

I have been wanting to try this technique since I very first started making soaps! I first saw the idea on this great blog goplanetearth.blogspot.com, another great soap making resource. They actually sell transfer paper, so you can print out your own designs. The way my little soap business works, is I make little soap, sell it, and reinvest in more supplies (molds, raw soap, colors etc.). I don't think I have yet to make an actual cash profit, but I have a closet overflowing with molds and other fun stuff. So anyways, I've been saving up to buy some transfer paper. It's a little pricey, as far as soap supplies goes, but totally worth it. Then I usually get side tracked, and spend the money on packaging, or scents, or whatever. Then finally I was like light bulb! This paper is meant to be made for temporary tattoo's, why don't I just buy a couple of them and see how it turns out?!? Then Wa la, we now have day 48 soap! I'm still gonna save up for the paper because I have a few of my own design ideas, but for now it's Captain Jack Sparrow (another favorite of mine, wit whew).

Hello!

So I was on Facebook today... multiple times, and I realized I think I need to start blogging all my updates. My soap shop has been open for over a year now, and I'm getting so much more to talk about :)

On this blog I will share all my soapy "Dish", and share some tutorials and how to's with you also. Some of my tutorials will be soap related, and other's will be the "such" in Soaps and Such by Holly. Thank you so much for reading my blog, I hope you enjoy it!
