Thank You, Donors!

Here are all the lovely bath treats I collected from you all! My boyfriend and I are heading over to Rosie's Place to drop them off. Thanks again, everyone!

It's A Nice Day to ... Start Again!

I am trying to make in-roads into the bridal market. I will be participating in a wedding fair on March 8th (details to come tomorrow), so I have been executing a few ideas I had.

Spearmint scented two-tier hot process soap cake with M & P blue icing. The icing is supposed to have the effect of water on a pond, thus the duckies swimming on it.

Coconut cream scented hot process soap cupcakes with shredded coconut.

Sex and the Ivy Valentine Gift Guide and Give Away

I would like to thank all of you who have generously donated products to the Valentine's Day Soap Drive. I've had a ton of donations from the folks at my day job, as well as several online. And even fellow body product company owners, like Penny from Zularis Naturals, have sent care packages for the women at Rosie's Place. There is still time to donate - I will be taking the packages to the shelter on Friday, 2/13.

I would also like to thank Lena Chen, from Sex and the Ivy fame, for selecting Stella Marie Soap Company as part of her Valentine's Day Gift Guide. Very exciting! She is also creating a giveaway for the holiday - please visit her blog for details!

2nd Annual Valentine's Day Soap Drive

Last Valentine's Day, I collected 2 big boxes of bath treats for the women at Rosie's Place (a woman's shelter in Boston). It felt so good dropping off the big boxes of love, I'm doing it again! If would like to make a soap donation, please email me. No contribution is too big or small. Please make sure that your donations are wrapped and if you are sending body scrubs/moisturizers, it is preferable that they be sealed.

These women are so brave - a little pampering goes a long way.

Clockwork Orange Gets Crazy

I was never that enthusiastic about Clockwork Orange's solid band of color at the top of its bar. I decided to do a new swirl. Me like this one much better.

Put Some SKA in Your Spa

You might think a soap inspired by The Mighty Mighty Bosstones would smell like brass, sweat, bulldogs and cigarettes. That's where you're wrong. This soapy jewel emits a lovely blend of spearmint and lemongrass!



P.S. I love you, Dickie!
