Welcome to our shop! We make skin nourishing handmade soaps and other body care products with carefully sourced ingredients. I prioritize the use of local, natural and sustainably sourced oils and butters that are good for our bodies, communities and planet. As a potter, I also enjoy creating colorful and whimsical ceramic soap dishes to use with our handcrafted soaps.

With a dedication to slow, eco-conscious living, I originally started to make soap to ditch single use plastics and to know exactly what we put on our bodies and what we wash down the drain with each use. The upstream and downstream ecological impact of our process is carefully considered and remains central to how and why we make handmade soap. We do not want to add any more toxins to our bodies, air, or waterways, so we only use natural ingredients in our soaps and choose to omit synthetic fragrances and colorants. Our packaging is plastic free and made from 100% recycled paper.

We strive to ethically source our ingredients, which for us means that we prioritize local, regional, fair trade, organic and sustainably harvested ingredients. And many of the herbs in our products are homegrown. I make all of our soaps and other skincare products in small batches to ensure quality and to keep our stock as fresh as possible.

We make all of our products in our home in Kent, Ohio. We have a young son and enjoy getting outside together for hikes, bike rides and kayak adventures. We also have a bit of a bird obsession around here, so a tiny bird photo (taken by me) flies out with every order.

Thank you for supporting our efforts to make washing-up natural and fun!
It truly means the world!
