I Admit

Tree Hugger-an arboreal blend of eucalyptus and cedar perfect for any tree hugger. This blend smells like cedar after a rain; smoky, spicy and slightly sweet with a hint of camphor.

Okay, I admit that I was pretty darn excited (I might have done a very discreet happy dance inside) to quite innocently run across Cocobong's blog post last night. I had no reason to suspect it was a "review" post or that a sampling of my soap would be included, but there it was. I was so relieved to know that something I put so much into was received so well -because that's why we put our hearts into this mad obsession after all right? 

I have been tossing back and forth weather or not I wanted to keep Tree Hugger as part of my permanent line. I know I can do some tweaking to make it just a bit better-(now that I know the secret to get rid of the clumpy td and how much wheat grass powder to get a better green) and it has a special place in my heart with or without the wonderful Cocobong review + it sells well at market-I think I'll be keeping it around.:-))

A big shout out to Lynda and C'bong for their kind words of encouragement!

A Great Way to Start the Day ;-)

A glowing review is music to a soap maker's ear.

"Michelle Lang, owner of Tierra Verde Handmade Soaps, creates 100% natural soaps.   Scented with fine essential oils and colored with natural pigments, then beautifully wrapped in recycled paper, soap doesn't get more natural than this  :)   

My first order from Tierra Verde was a bar of Tree Hugger.   Wonderfully scented, with beautiful natural colors, this soap was a pure treat to use.    I love finding good quality all natural products!

Celebrating her updated website, all bar soaps are 15% off until March 9th.     I just ordered a bar of Fir Needle and the shipping was only $2.10 (very reasonable).    This is the perfect time to try Tierra Verde soaps, if you haven't yet!!"

To see the full review go by Lynda's blog "Handmade Soaps and Other Obsessions"- Thanks Lynda-I'm so glad you enjoyed your handcrafted soap.

Also, don't forget all bar soaps are 15% off thru Friday-March, 9 at Tierra Verde Handmade Soaps.
