In all the mad hurrying and scurrying to get ready for the holiday sales season, I made a blunder on one batch of soap. I accidentally added the essential oils from two different varieties to the same batch. Happily, it turned out to be a lovely mistake. It's a little like those old Reese's Peanut Butter Cup commercials from the 1980s where two people run into each other on the sidewalk and chocolate and peanut butter collide...a wonderful accident.
Winter Solstice Soap is made with honey, beeswax and the oils of frankincense, myrrh, clove and orange. It's warm and spicy and sweet, all at the same time. It's a perfect winter scent.
I wanted to choose label art for it that made folks think of the cozy glow of candles in the long, dark winter. I chose today (Daylight Savings Day) to make it available because I think there's lots to love in this stretch of time until the Winter Solstice on December 21st. The darkness of the longest night is always lifted by candlelight.
