White Pine Soapworks -
- a left-handed woman owned business -
I now live in mid-mitten Michigan! Still among the Eastern White pines, but now with added Red pines, Jack pines and other lovely Michigan flora - including porcupines!
It's a beautiful state I live in and I'm very happy to be in Michigan. I started moving the Indiana farm early 2019 and it took me until June 2019 to get the livestock, house and myself moved in. I bought 20 acres with a barn and wonderfully large house. The house is big enough to have the entire berm basement made into my weaving, sewing and soaping studio!
All's quiet and cold on the first 'bend' of the creek.
SOAP MAKING:
I've been making and selling soap since 1978 - 42 years! My soaps are lard-based with some olive oil, free-range whole eggs (for lather and richness) and fresh whole goats milk! Other soaps I make are: vegetarian (with homemade soymilk!), beer, pumpkin, pine tar, Vaseline, citronella and a hostess size soap - a smaller soap for wedding favors and other events.
Hostess soaps are custom made! These are usually 3/4" wide by 1 1/2" wide by 2 1/2" tall (or custom-sized-it's up to you!) bars. Please allow 4 weeks for making and curing. These bars can be made in a variety of scents - please ask!
