Coming from Scotland, we love to cook from scratch using only the freshest of ingredients, we knit from scratch using some of the best wool in the world, and like to use what nature provides. When I was in my late teens, and early 20's, I was like most my age, using all of these bath and beauty products with big names and big price tags. It wasn't until I got married and started to have my kids, that I started to look at what I was using, especially on my children. I wanted something kinder and gentle. I discovered the world of soap making. After a huge amount of research and study, along with practice, testing on all of my human family and friends, my soap making life began.
Everyone that tested for me wanted more and more, they said you need to expand what you make. This is when Thistle Delight Soapworks was born. Why Thistle Delight? It is a play on words as well as bringing in my dear Thistle's from home. If you say Thistle Delight quick enough, you will hear This'll Delight, meaning This Will Delight.
While selling my products to local customers, and craft fairs, I was told about Etsy, gave it a look, and loved what I saw. Before I knew it, I was part of this great community of sellers and buyers alike.
I LOVE what I do, and a little of me is in everything I make.
