Soy Wax Moon Melts


It's time I do a post on these fancy little guys.  They are just like those wax tarts you put in a tart warmer.  You know what I'm talking about, some are electric, some have an unscented tealight lit underneath the tart bowl.  But who says we have to use boring old tarts?  At Halo Soap, I've created these adorable little Moon Melts!  They are even bigger than some of your typical wax tarts and at an even better price!  I currently carry them in 10 different scents.  Stop by the shop and pick some up or check them out online!

Tons of Totes


Today I've decided to do two posts.  This one is about the awesome totes I have in the shop.

These totes are handmade using thick, quality fabric in pretty colours and textures.  They are lined on the inside in a fun, complimenting color.  The handles are reinforced with boning so they are super strong!   Those that are made from a solid coloured leather material have a cute tie on the outside to really make the tote pop.

Here is a close up of some of the totes we currently have in the shop.


If you are interested in purchasing one and don't live near the store, please contact me through the website.

Body Butter


Today I finished scenting and packing a small batch of body butter.  I say "small" because I left a large amount unscented so people can now come in and mix their own body butter scent! Awesome, right? (The above picture is a snap shot of the body lotion I also make:)

As you can see from the picture below, my body butter is nice and thick and it goes on smooth and creamy!
And now each shelf is jam packed with wonderful lotion and butter!
If you are looking for a particular scent of if you want to mix your own scent, you can come into the shop to mix your own scent, or order online.

More Aprons!


This time I decided to make a waist only apron, with out the bib portion.  I used a cute apple and pear material with a medium powder blue background.  The contrasting colour is a pale yellow which brings out the colour in some of the apples on the patterned side of the apron.  

Here is a close up of the apple/pear pattern:

This apron is also two reversible so you can choose a side to fit your mood!

Tomorrow I will hopefully be working on another apron using a pretty paisley material I found.  I just need to find a good contrasting fabric!  If all else fails, there's always some good knitting to be done.

Aprons!

 I'm currently working on making a lovely selection of fun, practical aprons.  They are 100% cotton so they are easy to wash and they are reversible!  I'll be making a few different types and styles including those with and with out bibs.  The one I just finished today is a large sized bib apron.  (Don't let sizes fool you, they tie around your waist and have a few different options for neck tie sizes so really, anyone can wear them!)

This particular apron is made with a swirly floral print in shades of green and brown on a white background with a contrasting fabric that is a simple tiny polka dot pattern of white on brown.

Once I get a good collection of aprons made, I will put them on my website where they will be linked to my Etsy Shop.  In the mean time, you can come see them in person at Halo Soap and Products.
