2012

Definitely begining to resurface after the last four months.  I am getting bored and looking at new ideas for next year.  I am a person who needs to be challenged and the last four months did that but I was just unable to get all the products I wanted made for Christmas, namely lip balm so that will be out in the New Year. Definitely going to have to take someone on before next Christmas or else my family will kick me out.   The soaps sold well over the Christmas period and what was surpising to me and taught me a lesson was how many people bought soap for excema and other skin problems.  I was busy selling smellies and you forget how many people suffer with problems.  My background is in holistic therapies including flower essences, aromatherapy and I have used on my family and the animals homeopathy, so I am going back to my original to create a range for people with skin problems.  I will be looking at hand creams, foot creams to aid the skin and also for those of you who just love hand cream.   I enjoyed being at the Horsham market and met some lovely people so I intend to continue every other week there during the year.  I am also looking into the larger fairs this year to be able to get my soaps for problems to a wider audience.
