Set of TWO Granny's Lye Soap/Tallow and Lard Unscented Soaps

Granny's 1871 Lye Soap is a multi-purpose soap that I hand mix in small batches using fresh tallow and lard, and no scent. It's the ultimate "survivalist" soap as it can be used to wash the skin, dishes, linens, even the dog! A softer, less voluminous lather due to the limited ingredients but this soap will clean beautifully and still leave skin soft. Handcut bars are approximately 4 oz each and come in a PACKAGE OF TWO with great vintage labels. Cost for the two soaps is $12 plus $5.50 shipping. Buy several and save on the shipping costs!

Henrietta the Hen Little Pillow

Henrietta the Hen is stitched on to a little pillow (7 x 5 inch) which could be used as a pincushion or bowl filler or to add to your primitive collection. If her stitching details are not showing well in the photos please know that she is proud of her primly stitched tail feathers and a series of "x" stitching on her chest (my primitive nod to chicken scratch stitching just for fun. Henrietta approved.) Her fabrics are reproductions from the civil war era. Stuffed with little bits of fabric scraps. Kindly asking $35 which includes shipping.
