Since introducing the new items in the shop, it has had a knock on effect more than I could possibly have imagined, so I am busy trying to organise it the best way I can so as not to confuse you all which products are handmade and which have been sourced to buy in to offer you more choice.  Firstly I suppose I ought to explain why we are changing the site from being one that only sells handmade  bath products. I have offered a unique and bespoke soap service for quite a while now and this has got quite popular with the cutomers being able to choose individual fragrance colour and also the soap mould. It has become too popular if I  am totally honest with you, as the shop has got busier, my health has steadily declined. I am no longer very mobile, it is a  severe spinal condition that affects my mobility called Ankylosing Spondylitis.

I guess you will already have noticed the changes in the shop, but if you haven't I shall tell you what has been happening. I have introduced some bought  in items, namely bathbombs, soap slice's, essential oil bath potions, handwash and some moisturisers. The  handwash and moisturisers are one off's really and are on at great prices, so grab a bargain whilst you can.  The other stuff for the moment is here to stay, we have had many requests for soap slices, so I have sourced some for you, there are 2 types of soap slices, olive oil traditional natural soap and glycerine soap. The olive oil soap is made with the finest spanish olive oil, I have personally tried the liqourice soap  so far and it is really nice, with the colouring and the delicious smell it reminds me of  Berty Bassett liquorice allsorts, but seeing as they are made just down the road from me in Sheffield its not surprising. I have a slice of the Vanilla olive oil soap waiting for me when I finish the liquorice one. I have also tried the cassis and fig mega bathbomb, it was truely delightful, my water in the bath tub went a gorgeous blue, it was reminiscent of the colour of a hotel pool when abroad, surrounded by the sweet smell of ripe figs, I can highly recommend it for a luxurious soak in the bath.  If you would like to soak in the bath without the colourings, we also have the essential oil bath potions to try. I am still trying to source some other quality items for our shop, hopefully I shall find some nice bath gift sets.  Hope you enjoy the look around our new things.

 Well I hope you all had a fantastic christmas break, had lots of fun, got lots of rest and of course blew the diet ! Happy new year to you all, I hope 2012 brings all that you wish for. I just want to take a moment to say thank you to all of our customers for your support during 2011, thanks for being part of our year and making it better.  

The fragrances we have for christmas  are very quickly going down, and there won't be another order being placed for fragrances or essential oil. I have just added a couple of new ones. If you are wanting any christmas orders please get them in quickly to ensure you get exactly what you want, you will find all of the xmas shaped soaps under special occasions on the main page.  I have added the option of ordering multiple soaps for a reduced price on the most popular sellers.

I thought we would move away from soap talk for a while, as there is so much talk on the daily news about the credit crunch and how prices are soaring in the uk for food and petrol ect . I wanted to bring you some good news, at least its been very good news for me as it's saving me money everyday. I have changed my mobile over to the giff gaff provider, they have fantastic rates compared to other providers, its far cheaper to make a call to loved one, it's even free if they are on giff gaff.. Can you believe its only 8p a minute and 4p a text and they do have mobile internet at 20p per day providing you stay under 20mb. I personally think these are amazing prices, I know they are comparted to what I was paying previously. I am totally loving being able to text for free unlimited. If you fancy grabbing yourself a free sim with £5 credit free too, here is a link to do it.
