Oh my gosh, wow.

Your soaps are beautiful!

Have you heard of Homesteader's Co-op? It's a website where vendors can sell their sustainable, organic, and permaculture goods online in exchange for SBD. I've really been hoping there would be a soap maker that would sell on there.

I second that. Nice to see you are locally acquiring some of your ingredients :)

Very cool! This is the first I'm hearing of that group. I will certainly check it out. I actually haven't made a single sale (other than to my Aunt). I have been giving them away like candy, but I can't affors that anymore. Someone recommended Etsy. I have not spent any time learning the steemit process of sbd yet, it is well beyond time for that. Thank you for the kind words, the resteem, and for commenting. I appreciate the love! 💖

Hey @brutledge! Yes please come join us on https://homesteaderscoop.com/ if you want to sell your soaps for SBD (soon STEEM & USD)!

I happen to know that @nateonsteemit is really hoping for a quality soapmaker to sign up with us so that he can buy some soaps!! no pressure :P

Hahaha good to know! I will check it out right this second! 💕

They are lovely, WOW, you are so talented! I hope you get a lot of customers. If you lived any closer to me, I would be one of them for sure! I have a friend who makes them for me and have even tried to make some myself but since he is so much better, I let him do it :D

Well thank you for the lovely comment! Keep trying and you will figure it out! I've only been at it for a year or so now. 💖

Wow, you have made such an amazing lot of Organic healthy soaps. I have been wanting to make soaps since a very long time, may be in the next 3 months I will take off. I definitely know who I can reach out to for help.
Resteemed

Well, thank you! It has been so much fun learning all this stuff. I've only been soaping for just over a year, so it is very easy to do really. Once you do a couple batches you will get the process down to around an hour. I appreciate your kind words and the resteem!

What beautiful creations @brutledge! Thanks to @nateonsteemit resteeming I was able to appreciate your hard (art)work! I love that you have made such an effort using all natural ingredients. I've been making goats milk soap for years but I have never made such beautiful looking soap as yours! You are inspiring!

Awesome, well thank you @buckaroo and @nateonsteemit ! I apprecriate the kind words and encouragement! I have an unopened can of powdered goats milk that I got specifically for soapmaking and have yet to try it. I think you've just inspired me! I've been wanting to make one last soap before babe is born. 💖

Beautiful! ♥
I also make soap myself, but still haven't Steemed about it.
I'm a bit lazy. ;)

It took me weeks before actually posting! Doing all the photography, set up, and photo editing is hard work. If I get anywhere in this business I would probably hire someone for that bit. I enjoy the soapmaking, not the rest so much. One thing I have learned is to stick with similar size molds, because having to weigh each bar and figure out individual pricing is making my head explode ha!

Posting about own soaps is very challenging and time consuming.
Good you have patience for it.
Enjoy your passion. ☺
