Weddings


I'm ashamed at how long it has been since I "soap-blogged"... I'm getting married in 13 days and soap has definitely had to be pushed to the back burner the past few weeks.

Ideas keep churning even when wedding takes the forefront of my mind... we are getting married at Grandfather Mountain's Highland Games... we made a short trip a few weeks ago to the Greenville Scottish Games... we are enjoying learning all the things we can about Scotland and Scottish history and the history of Hugh's clan... Lindsay...

Which on the back burner of my mind simmers the idea of Scottish soap... an entire line! Soaps that evoke the feelings and scents of Scotland... we could do this! and then we could go to all the Highland Games within driving distance as vendors, selling our Scottish Soaps!

What things make you think of Scotland? Whiskey... Heather... Thistle... Shortbread... William Wallace... Robert Burns... Bog Myrtle (just learned about that one... very cool!)... Tartans, Clans, Clotted Cream, Earl Grey Tea, Luckenbooths, Silver, Bluebells, Scones, Butter, Orange Marmalade, Lemon Curd, Oatmeal and Heather Honey...

I think there's a line of soaps in there somewhere! Can't wait to start experimenting and developing...

But first... we have a wedding! Yay to the Yayness!!

  1. Congrats on your upcoming wedding! You could do a spa type bar and tie in "peat moss" into the name. Please don't do haggis. :)
