I have had some new customers recently that had received my soap at a Holiday gift. They are seeking me out and already requesting more more more. I am making soap as quickly as I can and I am happy to tell you that Lilly of the Valley is on the shelves curing.
I had a good amount of Lily of the Valley growing at the edge of the woods at my childhood home. So fragrant, sweet and beautiful, these delicate little flowers let off a wonderful aroma. My Lily of the Valley soap is very true to the real scent. I made this soap as a special request and after bringing some to market and selling out quickly, made more for the Holidays. Again, special request have brought it back.
Here is some information about Lily of the Valley:
