New Soap End Packaging

I introduced my soap ends to a few Farmers Market customers before Christmas as a way to "get rid of" all the extra soap ends I had hanging around.  I packed them up first in a little bag tied with a ribbon, but wanted something cuter.  I had these clear Chinese food containers (also hanging around) and put the 2 of them together.  Again, I brought them to the Farmers Market and they were bought up in about 18 minutes.  People loved them.  They loved the idea of trying all these different soaps.  Loved the idea of all the different colors in the container.  Loved the idea that I wasn't wasting anything.  Lisa Marie's Made In Maine (retail stores in both Bath & Portland)also loved them.  She is now purchasing them wholesale for sale in her stores.  Now, if only I had more soap ends!    they are always, limited edition on my website, as I just never know how many I will have in stock.  And I only have a small amount that go to the Farmers Market with me, so grab them if you see them.  What do you think?  Cute, right?!

Very cute! Smart thinking to create a new product this way.

Those "ends" look very classy -as appealing as a full bar of soap! What a clever idea!
