It's Maple Sugaring time in New Hampshire....Happy Spring!
Welcome to Spring and the March update! I couldn't resist posting an old photo I took years back of the maple sugaring buckets on a quiet country road. Today is the Vernal Equinox but we know how fickle March can be, especially in northern New England! Tonight it's lots of BEESWAX goodies, next month I will have some new Spring Soaps to offer. I hope you'll find something needful this evening and stop by my Etsy shop for even more goodies. I will combine shipping and save you $$ on multiple purchases. Generally I am not at the computer at night, but we're early risers and I'll contact you the next morning. I have many more beeswax ornaments and soaps in my Etsy shop so take a peek there too!
Please take a peek at my Etsy shop to see more of my products. The link here to my Etsy shop does not appear to be working so you may have to copy and paste it or reach the shop from my website at catsinthecradlesoap.com. Thanks so much for dropping in!
Offering some very unique and VERY old bars of hand made lye soap! These soaps came from a barn in Maine and are 90-100 years old.
Still as good as they were when made, stored away in a box and now ready to clean everything from fine linens and floors to dirty dishes and Grandpa too!
Bars are 5-6 oz. each, very hard and long lasting. I've added a nice old lady's image for comic relief while you scrub! Includes a hand made wooden soap dish.
Each bar is $16. plus $6 shipping. I have only a few of these, when they're gone they're gone.
Buy a piece of history and wash with it too! Email ccradle@worldpath.net if you wish to purchase and thanks for stopping in!
