Misty's Holiday Gift Guide - Volume 3

This is the 3rd and final installment of Misty's Holiday Gift Guide!  It's going to be short and simple, but there's nothing simple about the shops I'm featuring.  Today is all about gifts for your furbaby!  

Jennie B. Goode Collars

Miss Jennie and Miss Sophia are the absolute epitome of cuteness!  In totally different ways, of course, one being human and the other being fur covered.  But they make a fantastic team:  Jennie sewing up stylish collars, harnesses, leashes and more for your pup or kitty and Sophia modeling them (she is such a diva!)  **And she's offering free shipping for Black Friday!  Use code "BlackFriday11" when you check out!

Pumpkin Patch Plaid Dog Collar - $16.50

Christmas Sweets Holiday Dog Collar - $16.50

Skull & Crossbones Dog Collar - $16.60

P3Puppies

Miss Liz from P3Puppies is the SHI...I mean BOMB!  I have such mad love for her, I can't even tell you!  And she's got what it takes to keep your furbaby warm this winter!  Don't be put off by the lack of sales in her shop...it's brand new!  But she knows what she's doing and has FANTASTIC products!  I think Miss Sophia even sports some P3Puppies wear...I know Auntie Dis' furbabies do!

Cow Hide Patterned Large Fleece Dog Jacket - $20.00

Snowflake Pattern Large Fleece Dog Jacket - $20.00

Small Red and Black Paws Fleece Dog Jacket - $20.00

Happy Holidays!!

Misty's Holiday Gift Guide - Volume 1

With the holidays approaching and the online holiday shopping season kicking into full swing, I thought it was the perfect time to share some of my favorite handmade shops and items in the hopes that no matter who you're shopping for, you can find something great for them! 

I'll be breaking the gift guide up into several volumes or series.  From jewelry to candles to baby items to gifts for Fido, you'll find it here.  I'm only featuring items and shops that I have personally bought from or have on my own list to try.  Pfft...like I'd suggest anything but the best to you...

So without further ado, I give you Volume 1 of Misty's Holiday Gift Guide!

You're probably wondering why on earth a soapmaker is featuring another soapmaker, aren't you?  The answer is simple.  I love soap and I love buying soap from other shops.  Soap makes me happy.  You know how some people buy shoes?  Yep, I buy soap.  And when it comes to cold process soaps, Amanda and Joe from Long Winter Farm Soap Co know their shi--I mean, stuff.  I almost always have a bar of LWF in my shower.

Year End Sale....What a Wicked Holiday Season!

Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays! I hope everyone is enjoying their Christmas morning. My kiddo and I are watching Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith...one of his gifts from Santa. Yep, my little guy is a huge Star Wars geek and I love him for it! He made out like a bandit this year....a PS2, 2 new games for it, an iPod already full of music, and of course his Star Wars DVDs, just to name a few.



I can't tell you how wonderful this Holiday Season has been for me. In the 50 days since Wicked Soaps opened (well, 46 really, since I didn't start listing items until Nov. 9th), we've had 281 sales...that's an average of over 6 sales a day. Unbelievable for a brand new shop. In my wildest dreams, I didn't imagine success like this so soon. I can't even begin to thank all of my customers.

In honor of such a freaking awesome opening holiday season, I've decided to have a Year End Sale. Everything in the shop is marked down 25% (except Gift Sets, which are marked down 15%) December 25-December 31! No waiting for Paypal refunds or revised invoices, no need to enter any sale code, just shop and go!

Cold Process Soap: was $5.50, now $4.00
Goat's Milk & Glycerin Soap: was $5.00, now $3.75
Skin Luster Body Oil: was $7.00, now $5.25
Sugar Body Polish: was $12.00, now $9.00
Sugar Scrub Cubes: was $9.00, now $6.75
Body Butter Creme: was $9.00, now $6.75
Facial Masks: was $8.00, now $6.00
Perfume Oils: was $15.00, now $11.25
Something Wicked This Way Comes Gift Basket: was $32.50, now $27.65
A Little Something Wicked Gift Set: was $12.50, now $10.65

As my little guy told me last night...Feliz Navidad! Hope you all have a wonderful Christmas!

12 Days of Christmas

On the 6th day of Christmas, my true love bought for me, 6 body oils, fiiiiiiiiiiiiive Naaaaaaked Sooooooooaaaaaaaaaaaps, four body butters, three scrub cubes, two perfume oils and a stocking full of Wicked Goodness!

Haha...I'm not a composer or song-writer, so please don't shoot me for that. The truth of the matter is, I'm late making this blog post, it should have been done 6 days ago when we still had 12 days left. I suppose my tardiness is to your benefit, though...you only had to sit through my rendition of 6 days of Christmas versus 12 ;-)

Ahem, back to the matter at hand. Wicked Soaps is running a spectacular, fantastic, wonderful (you get the idea) 12 Days of Christmas Sale! Through Friday, December 18th, take 15% off your entire order at www.WickedSoaps.etsy.com. No code needed. If you make a purchase, I automatically refund you 15% of your purchase price (you know the drill...it doesn't include shipping costs).

You can either pay and receive the refund or you can convo me and let me know you would like a revised invoice prior to paying. I'm pretty easy! Either works for me!

It's been a while since I last blogged and in that time I've added many new scents and products to Wicked Soaps!
