We are getting geared up for a local festival this Saturday and have everything ready to go for the most part. Just got to get my supplies organized for the demo which I'm going to do tonight. :)
Have a great rest of the week!

Goals
How many of you actually make goals for yourself or your business? I have the hardest time making myself set goals for my Etsy shop each month. I could say it is from not having enough time or fear that I won't meet my goals which is more true probably. With that I'm here to set at least two short term goals and share them with you.
1st goal: Reach 50 sales in my shop by May 31st. As of today I'm at 35. I think that is obtainable.
2nd goal: Reach 100 fans on Facebook. I'm at 57 right now. I found an interesting post by someone in the forums in Etsy that talked about a Facebook app that you can use to run giveaways, discounts, etc. I'm thinking I'm going to give this a try and I'll post daily once I start it. I probably will run it for a week. Oh if you aren't a fan of Springwood Soaps here's my facebook page: http://www.facebook.com/springwoodsoaps.
Picture of the day: Me learning how to use our new shrink wrap system.
That is our new soap on the right "Boyfriend", you know that wonderful feeling when you would wear your boyfriends shirt just so you can have him closer to you! This is a wonderful blend of fresh clean linen and a touch of cologne that gives you that romantic feeling of having your boyfriend close to you :) Soap on the left is our very popular Oatmeal, Milk & Honey. If you haven't tried this you should! It is great and anyone you talk to that has tried this will agree.
Well we will see how these new goals work out for us. Come back often as I update our progress!
OK cute kitty pic!

End of March
I know I'm getting sick of the amount of rain we have gotten for the week. I can only take just so much of getting soaked. Of course now we won't get any after posting this! The end of the month I can actually reflect on how things have been for March and I think we have had a good overall month.
One thing that I'm going to start doing is setting goals for Springwood so that I know what I need to get done and when to achieve it. I had no such setting for March and that has to change! So with that in mind we shall see what happens in April :)
April here I come!
Here is our newest soap "A Forest", which is a blend of fresh cut grass, musk and a slight hint of earth aromas. Very natural light bar.

House of Moss on Etsy Featured by Wee Waldolf
Be sure to visit the feature Wee Waldolf did on House of Moss. House of Moss has the cutest little felted items. I really like this little felted mushroom in her Etsy Shop. It is too adorable!
Wee Waldolf has a very nice blog too by the way. Maybe they will feature us one day :) That would be great. Until then we are going to be plugging away and are in the process of increasing our inventory for our first show coming up 3/19/11, lots of soap to make.

Starting up!
Hi and welcome to our very first blog! This is Barbara one of the addicted soap makers!
We have been making quite a bit of soap here as we get ready for a market event (our first one) and so we are busy busy busy :) It's been fun making all the soap now if I can just get caught up with all the paperwork side of things. I'm an accountant by day soaptress by night and in between try to keep all the record keeping and label up which is getting harder as we are producing quite a bit each night. Going to use this week end to catch up some labeling.
I've got Savon de creme (whipped soap) waiting to be piped into jars.... here's a sneak peak at our Sunny D!
