Again, I will debut some specialty soaps, including "Black Hole Sun" (black licorice and poppy seed soap with rich black swirls) and the following decorative soaps: Celtic Dragons, Celtic Hearts, Winged Beasts, Gargoyles, Cherubs and Angels. My devilish Valentine's Day Gift Sets will also be available at the show.

Venue Address:
Seaport World Trade Center
200 Seaport Boulevard
Boston, MA 02210
Admission is $15.00


Stella Marie soap is now available at The Blue Cloud Gallery in Somerville, MA. This shop is killer! They carry the most gorgeous handmade products - many are crafted locally. I am thrilled to introduce Stella Marie to brick and mortar at this shop.

New Items

For peppermint lovers ...



... a limited edition Peppermint Twister Soap - in guest or travel size (about 3 ounces) ... very refreshing!

Next, be on the look out for the new cup cake liners I'll be using for many of my bath bombs. Aren't they perfect?



And finally, here are a few more books to add to the soapmaking library ... picked them up in NYC this weekend. I will be listing them in the resources section of the blog in short order.
