Winter Spice Formerly Christmas Spice , we love this one so much we call it winter spice and use it all year. This seasonal standout is an irresistible blend of Yuletide spice, woods, and sweet notes. At the top, ripe strawberry melds with touches of green apple and pineapple. Next, holiday spices of clove, cinnamon, pimento, and cardamom blend with a hint of rose, leading to sweet vanilla and balsam fir.
Grandma's Kitchen SOLD OUT Delectable notes of cinnamon, clove, nutmeg, cardamom, and pimento leaf lend warmth to a green, balsamic heart. It brings together rich vanilla and sweet caramel for a mouthwatering finale. For what it's worth, fragrance researchers claim that the scent of pumpkin pie filling will turn men into helpless love slaves, content to sit immobile for hours while you use their arms as a yarn-winder.
Peppermint Brisk and slightly sweet, this peppermint is a lovely bright fragrance. I use mine mostly in the kitchen for hand washing after handling garlic or onion. Be careful as it can cause tingling in sensitive areas of the body. It's revitalization and bubbly fragrance is said to improve concentration and mental clarity.
Woodland Oak Moss SOLD OUT A fabulous combination loaded with natural Oakmoss botanicals. Men just love this scent on both themselves and the women they're close to. Try it and see. It actually turns heads, it's sexy, earthy with a light touch of floral to round it out perfectly.
Oatmeal Milk & Honey This blend is a perfect marriage of oatmeal, milk, and honey -- mellow, soothing, with just a hint of sweetness -- the comfort food of fragrance. my personal favorite!
Kauai Ginger SOLD OUT Also
known as *Hawaiian White Ginger*, this glorious scent of the islands is captured
in this romantic, gingery blend of tropical florals. It's pure tropical
heaven and almost like a vacation to the islands.
limited quantities , please order early
WARNING - once you use natural soaps, you probably won't want to use store bought soaps any more! ☺

This is roving, the result of carding. It aligns the fibers to get them ready for spinning.
This is the wheel I use to spin my yarn. Although I do love to spin, and I have some of my own hand spun yarns in the store, most of our yarn is send to our friends Jim and Lynn Snell , at Spinderella's for processing.
