Our Story
Our Mission:
First and foremost is to honor the Lord in all we do. Then it is to create the most wonderful, silky soft soap possible to turn your bath/shower into a moment of luxurious joy!

Ashes & Butterflies:
Lye for soap making was originally made from water run through ashes and mixed with animal fat. Seeing these two undesirable ingredients mixed together to create something beautiful and luxurious always makes me think of how God takes us in all our messy shortcomings, washes us with his love, and makes something beautiful! Thus, giving beauty for the ashes.
The butterfly also portrays that amazing picture. It goes from a lowly worm (ok, caterpillar) and as a gift from God, emerges as a lovely & free creature!

Our Soaps:
Even Cleopatra pampered herself with luxurious milk baths
With 35 years of experience and over 2,500 batches, our soap is some of the best we've ever known! It is luxurious skin loving, nourishing, and very long lasting! The bars all feel silky-soft, and lather well!
The goat's milk bars are taller than wide, so fit perfectly in your hand, They are specially formulated to be very rich, creamy, and good for all of your skin (body and face!). They are good for all skin types.
The vegetable oil soaps have luxurious butters in them such as Shea, Mango & Avocado, good for body, face and even hair.
All of the bars are made with natural, high quality ingredients.
(The fragrance oils, though, and micas in them, are not considered "all natural").
And just a note...All soap is made with lye (sodium hydroxide). Without lye there is no soap! (by definition). So when people say "there is no lye in theirs", what they mean is that the soap is fully cured, and "saponified" (turned into soap) so that there is no free lye still roaming around in it. :-)

Our Places:
For 35 years we have been in the Pioneer village at the Clackamas County Fair in Canby, Oregon, washing hands and selling our wonderful soaps. It is our loyal customers who have given me the most encouragement as they came back year after year telling us how amazing, skin loving, and long lasting our bars are.
Our oldest son was also there for many years, playing his violin from the time he was just a child, until he went off to college.
We have also done the Oregon State fair from time to time and Washington County fair.
We even reached out, upon occasion to Douglas County fair in So. Oregon and to King County fair in Enumclaw, Wa. Each time we traveled with the Pioneer Village, set up our 1800's tent, and washed hands with a bowl and pitcher.
We loved meeting our customers and being with people. Now that we are changing our pace and probably not doing them any more, we will miss it!

Our Journey:
For 12 years of intense research (before internet access) we worked to perfect our recipe. We used every oil and fat available, tried each one separately, and chose the best combination for the best possible soaps (and now have been doing it for more than 35 years all together).
