Welcome to my channel! My name is Sarah and in 2021, my daughter and I started a handmade business... accidentally. Over our summer break, we went to a craft store looking for something to occupy our time. While there, we found some soap making supplies and decided to give it a whirl.
On this channel we talk about melt and pour soap making, cold process soap making, soap tutorials, handmade business tips + tricks, vendor markets, studio vlogs and so much more. We hope you find value here and are happy to have you as a part of our community!

Fragrance Oil Crash Course - everything a maker needs to know about using fragrance oils
Thank you for sharing, as a very new business I too fell into boxing my self in, not massively, but still have had to rethink my brand, I started with herbal teas, as that’s my passion and growing herbs, but have ventured into more botanical products, like soap, lotion bars, shave soap and lotions. It’s very difficult to stay focused on one line, fortunately my name can extend to my other creative passions.
Just a thought. Dive deep into 1 product. I’m not nearly as far as you but this is one of the things I’m thinking.
Get out of my head! 🤣
This is question I ask a lot of creators but I don’t receive answer , since you now know your brand message, how you came up with the scents of your candles that goes with your brand? What makes you decide to choose those scents?
How I got over impulsive buying: 1. I make a wishlist AND a must-order list; 2. I put myself on a budget; 3. I order only once a month. If there's any budget left after the items on the must-order list have been dealt with, I choose what I really want from my wishlist. I just mark those items and leave it until the next day. Quite often my point of view has changed by then 😊 Good luck with finding clarity on how to go on! ❤ from the Netherlands
As a new soap maker this was helpful. Thank you!
I think impulsivity, shiny object syndrome (ADD?) are all common in creative people.
And I’m totally getting you on the car freshie thing. I genuinely like making them. And they sell pretty good. But, regardless of who makes them, those things do not hold scent! I have purchased some pretty pricey car freshness from commercial stores….same result.
Guilty on the impulsive buying…but it’s candle vessels for me.
I’m guilty of this as well it’s jars
Hi I just got done watching all you videos I found you about a week ago thank you so much for sharing your journey I will be Lauryn soap in January and I’m going to try a hybrid model I will have my core line and then one or two max seasonal items and the is it I think the will work and they will be limited meaning I’ll make one batch so my customers know when they are gone that’s it I think that will build hype and over time people will know to back seasonally and know to be the fist as well well that’s my hope

Hi Eleve. What wood wick did you use for these vessels if you don’t mind me asking
If you dont mind me asking. What wicks did you use on this vessel?
Hi, have you used Midwest’s diffuser base for car diffuser?
Hey! No I haven't. Is it worth a try? Thanks for stopping by!
Thank you so much for this video! Your daughter is so intelligent and well mannered! You are doing an amazing job Mom!!❣❣
Thank you so much for the kind words 😍.. she's my best business partner, too!
Is the candle apple the same as BBW?
Yes! It's a dupe for winter candy apple!
love this vlog

totally me! I would not share it with the husband though.
Welcome to my life, us creatives are definitely a little ADHD. Keeping my ideas under wraps is near impossible 😂
Haha right!! Glad I'm not the only one lol.
Hello, newbie to your channel here! Thanks for sharing this tutorial also scratch & sniff tag would be appreciated. Thanks.
No usefull video
Feel free to keep moving then!
Info on the packaging would be great
Hey there! I have a detailed video coming up about packaging! Any questions in particular I can answer for you, in there? 🥰
Love your labels. Do you make them yourself? Are they weatherproof or vinyl?
Hey! Yes, I print them myself from online labels 😀. These are not vinyl or waterproof but they are tough! I have a labels deep dive coming up, anything in particular I can answer in that video for you? Thanks for stopping by!
@@EleveHandmade Do you use an inkjet or laser printer. What is the specific label number from online labels. Would love to know why you decided on those labels vs. weatherproof or vinyl and how they hold up as it relates to smears, smudges with oil or water. Looking forward to your label deep dive. My own label journey is still a point of contention because I settled on clear then switched a few times (ugh). 🤦♀
Congratulations 🎉
Thanks! 😊
Hello , I use a confectionery funnel I got at Walmart that is great for pouring my lotions and body oils. It’s stainless steel so you can was wash it and reuse it for ever. It also come with the stand that helps a lot during the process. Regarding the fo, that is always and issue for us as maker since they are proprietary and the manufacturer can change ingredients without letting us know about it. Even if you get same fragrance from the same supplier. Congratulations on your first wholesale order.
That pouring funnel is a great idea!! Reading your comment reminded me that I bought one, months ago.. I dug it out yesterday and used it today! Thanks again for reminding me❤️!
@@EleveHandmade You are welcome! Isn’t it easier?
Woohoo!! That’s exciting! Congrats! Can you share a link for the little phone tripod you use?
Hey girl! I got it at TJ Maxx quite a while ago, but this one seems very similar- www.amazon.com/Tripod-Lightweight-Solidest-Portable-Samsung/dp/B0BQJ1CQXW/ref=mp_s_a_1_7?crid=1G5CE4IGAQX8L&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.KCP1kggIugVDf1s0fJ0AtFIkqhr5WZWbnRZ3zt99H3nCLlPX0KTMrkEhd5dZRz3Tl83JxxRUM2xyHwnNVjWMLtz5LzP54-kXkgPdcfdQxVodlMGZDY9x8jGL31tXUNTLu3ri1mlYmsTMD_B522hP8hjPX9tYDHrlptdpBTaWIA_hkPszsCtve-E7fBO989BzwtD2iPVb1j3p2LqytJlC0w.mePU66eqtceOhmn5Qv5ojyGGG0dR-du9xfv37rN3VRg&dib_tag=se&keywords=white+tripod+phone&qid=1728741929&sprefix=white+teipod+phone%2Caps%2C77&sr=8-7❤️
I found that simplifying some of my recipes to contain less variety of oils helped with cost. Let's say you use sweet almond, Avacado, and hemp oil. You could pick one and try to sub that for the others with the same results. This would allow you to buy 1 larger bottle of oil instead of 3 smaller ones. Finding other uses for the ingredients I already buy is how I lowered some of my costs.
Thanks so much for the advice. That is a great way to save money, especially if you are able to buy in bulk! I'll have to look into that for myself 😍. Thanks for stopping by!
OK, so you substitute your oil, but did you ever thought about that the person that you are selling the product to already know the ingredients list that is listed on your label so when you are doing a substitution for macadamia nut oil be careful of nut allergies however I hope you already put those on your label
Hello, macadamia nut oil was already in the recipe and on my product description and label. I was about .5 oz short on jojoba, so I replaced it with macadamia. Macadamia already held the highest oil percentage, so the ingredient deck was still in order from greatest to least amount in the product ☺️.
I tried making these and the reed diffuser oil and fragrance oil are separating. The fragrance oil just lays in the bottom of the jar. Both the reed diffuser oil and fragrance oils are from The Flaming Candle. Is the cure time supposed to combine these oils? Any help would be appreciated!
Have you tried using solubilizer?
The music 🤣🤣
So beautiful. I need one
Thank you! I have a code 'subscriber' you can use for 20% off if you decide to try it 🥰.
Beautiful candle. I love watching all your videos. Your voice is so gentle
If you dont mind me asking, what size wick is that?
How big was the cost difference of making it from scratch vs wholesale supplies plus? Thanks!
Lovely looking lotion. Love the touch of white cloud shimmer. Interesting I don't know where I've been? I had no idea you had a Patreon? Will definitely check that out. Enjoyed the video.
Hello!! I'm going to guess (solid) lotion stick! ☺️☺️
Deodorant and amazon looking for variety of bottle shapes
Solid face lotion stick maybe?
back again...Hahaha my sniff boxes are the 1oz tins. I print the scent name on the top half of a 2" circle label stick it inside the tin, then I take a cotton round, cut it in half, hot glue it in the bottom half of the label, put a few drops of the FO. I offer 17 different scents and this has worked great for me. When they get gross, I just peel it all out of the tin and make a fresh new sniff box.
I use these same bottles and I have found that even though the plug is in, they still diffuses and get the wooden lid wet or spots appear on the wooden lids, so I have started taking a couple pieces of scotch tape over the plug, wrapping down the neck of the bottle, then putting the wooden lid on as an extra barrier and this helps a lot! be very careful not to force the wooden lid to screw all the way if it doesn't want to because it will split the wood and break it..
I love the idea of using the squirt bottle! That seems like a time saver and so clean!
Solid body butter sticks?? If it is that’s a great idea 😃
Solid lotion bar. If so great idea to use the stick tubes. They can be kind of messy when placed in a tin.
such a great video
You are not making the soap, you are only melting it down and adding other ingredients to it. This is ok if that is what you want to make it safer for you, but this is very misleading
Sunscreen stick balm
Pain balm or solid lotion : ) appreciate you sharing your small business journey!!!
