This can’t go on. Peppermint for sale

Peppermint for sale

Because I’m a perfectionist/procrastinator, I have a tendency to hem and haw and sit on something until I think it’s perfect. Hence, the ridiculously long time it’s taking me to get the main soap site up.

I’ve got to get some energy moving.

So, I’m selling bars of peppermint.

Now.

Note: Because I’m still figuring out the PayPal credit card fees, I’m only selling within Switzerland at this point (I’ll send y’all an invoice).

The soap

I make my peppermint soap using olive, palm, coconut, sunflower, castor and sweet almond oils along with peppermint essential oil and peppermint leaves. Each bar weighs approximately 100g, is around 7.5×7.5 cm, and is lovingly wrapped with Italian paper and sealed with a wax stamp.

All of the above courtesy of my two little hands.

CHF 15.00 per bar

What to do

Send your name, address (remember, I’m selling only to Switzerland right now) and how many bars you want to info (at) sapuna (dot) ch. I’ll send your order along with an invoice.

Thanks to everyone for the support!

Score!

This bottle winked at me from a brockihaus window as I was walking back from Saturday shopping.

I. Had. To.

And I got it for CHF 5.:-)

But at least I did something

Decanting Decanting

I totally missed the deadline for the site. I hope to have it up this weekend.

Tonight I decanted the ylang ylang, sandalwood, rose blend after letting it cure for a couple of weeks. I’ll let it sit for a few more. The ylang has settled down and the rose is slowly stretching her arms and yawning. Ready to meet the sunshine.
