Personally, I find the way you wrap your soaps very visually appealing. I know you say you're not good at designing labels, but it really does look like you put a lot of effort into your presentation. From the soap stamps, ink stamps, labels and packaging it looks lovely. I've started making my own soap and you've helped me think about some plastic free options. Thank you for sharing, helpful and gracious as always! 😊
@@EllenRuthSoap Dear Ellen, I'm trying to join the soap manufacturing business, Bur i get stuck on the packaging. But you have teach me allot. You are a super hero's. Thanks
Speaking as a soap maker of 12 years and slowing down, I LOVE your videos. How I wish you would have been around in my early years. I’m sure others are benefiting from all your shared know. Love your JOY!
Dear Ellen, you under estimate the perfection of your soap wrapping, truly! Your presentation standard is quality, professional, and beautifully simple and accessible. And who doesn’t like that all natural look of kraft brown paper & sticker little packages? I stress about labelling myself, and seriously need to move on from hand written sticker labelling. Not even got my old printer going yet, or can decide which laser printer to replace it with. Yep, am a bit daunted about label designing and getting organised with the right shapes & sizes of water proof sheets of printing paper needed, etc. I can relate to you on the challenge of it. And knowing that for some people this is easy, and may think, ‘uhh, what’s the difficulty here?’ When I watch your soap wrapping ideas and your previous round lotion bar coffee filter ones too, I feel encouraged to just go do it, just go make my own, and fully finishing of the job of presenting great soap bar for others. It’s still part of the creative process after all.
@Consciousness I have been getting reasonable results using Avery labels with the print myself option. I design them, then download the pdf and send it to fedex or ups printing store. I bring them my label sheets and they print it for me. The thing to look out for is that the skill levels in those stores vary greatly. Took me a while to find the good skilled and patient staff.
I chose this video for the content, and I was not disappointed. But I found myself wanting to know about everything in your workshop behind you. This was an amazing and very detailed master class on wrapping. Love it.
These are all so beautiful!! I have wrapped mine in shrink wrap, but did not do it your way--- your way is SO much more efficient! I also do paper cigar bands. Haven't quite decided which I like best. But your brown labels are ON POINT! Simple Elegance! I totally love it! Thanks for so many tips and so much help!
I don't think it matters too much what the design is like. Because the feel of Ellen Ruth Soap is delivered as it is. It's really great that the brand image is conveyed through feeling. You are unrivaled in your own vintage and luxurious atmosphere!!!
Oh My God !!! You are my Queen. I have more than year with that machine and you showed how to use it. A lot of blessings!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you.
I’m drawn to your “super simple” labels and would choose yours over any fancy label out there because I prefer items where the maker allows their product to be the main focus. I also prefer the look of kraft paper cuz it lends itself to a more clean and streamlined look. It presents as more “earth friendly” too. Have a wonderful weekend and thank you for sharing your methods.
Hey Ellen, I’ve been studying soaping and skin care for the last year and a few months and your channel is like my one stop shop. Wanted to say thank you truly for all of your content because it has been very helpful! Bless your channel, your hands , and your business!💚
Thank You Mrs. Ellen Ruth; we appreciate you in downtown Motown; Your packaging and label designs were excellent as well as your elegant sopas; thank you soooo much!!!
I’m so happy I came upon your videos. I could watch you all day. I’m going to try to do a few soaps for Christmas gifts. It looks so interesting to do. I retired from work and have made and sold reborn dolls for Eight years. I am retired now from doing those as well. Now I think I would like to try soap making for a hobby. Looking forward to more videos ! Thank-you.
Ellen I love the stamp that you use for the box’s and for your soap. Thank you for your videos wish there were more people like you that like making this kind of videos I know I’m not good on talking 😂.
I absolutely love your labels and how you package things. It’s simple, but very aesthetically pleasing in my opinion. I’m just starting out, and I’m so tech challenged, that I’m just clueless 😅
I always thank God for your life, you do a beautiful job In everything you do, thank you for sharing your ideas and recipes for we the up coming makers. God bless you Ellen!❤
Hi Ellen!!! I hated to throw away the scrap pieces of the shrink wrap but found out that the first scrap piece you pull off from the sealer fits chapstick tubes perfectly to shrink wrap! Bam!!! No more buying shrink wraps for chapsticks!
Great vid as always. Pkg can be such a "Analysis Paralysis" sort of thing when starting out. Having different styles just as you have dependent on what type of soap it is makes complete sense. Thanks for this, has really helped me heaps.
@@EllenRuthSoap lol...awww hope you didnt think I was describing you with the paralysis. All I know is figuring out ones pkg and brand is darned tough work. I absolutely love your style, looks so organic and eco earthy if that makes sense. Regarding the designing of labels...yes that is another thing altogether. Technology and I too arent besties lol. So keeping it simple works for me. Thanks again Ellen xx
Thank you Ellen for sharing this information with us, I really appreciate it! I was feeling a little lost but you gave me great pointers at options to wrap soaps. You explained everything in such a good and professional manner. I love your swirl techniques and you are right, the dolphin 🐬 soap looks really beautiful! 🙂
Thank you for sharing this information. I'm brand new to soaping. I've only made 2 batches so far and I am not happy with the 2nd one. I've been watching all kinds of videos. You make lovely products and I love how the soaping community supports each other. I'm looking forward to learning this new craft for family and friends. Have a blessed day. :)
Just the video I was looking for! Thank you! I’m a beginner soap maker and I just found your channel, I’ve binge watched your videos for about 2 days now! Love love love all your content!
Thanks for sharing!! I’ve heard that you shouldn’t shrink wrap cold process soap. Happy to see that someone else is doing it because I was definitely considering shrink wrap vs boxes to show more detail. You did great & I’ve learned a lot from watching your videos. ❤
Thank you Ellen. I just learnt soap making and are looking for wrapping options, especially challenging to combat "sweating" for melt & pour soaps in hot humid Singapore. Your video is really fantastic and timely ❤❤❤ Thank you so so much
Thank you Ellen... this was so helpful and not for a single second i felt like you are challenged in designing your labels or packing the soaps.. you ARE SO GOOD❣️ Keep on Rocking 🥰
Beautiful wrapping and labels Ellen😊I love your natural aesthetic, I really think it'd beautiful. I use to wrap mine similar to your paper version with a very similar wax paper and I just love the way it looks. I switched after that to shrink wrap which I hated (changed only because the weather ruined my paper ones) so then I changed again to compostable totally biodegradable corn starch based shrink wrap with a kraft cigar band I designed and I'm finally 100% happy. It can take a while to find the style you like most that holds with your values and brand and one that is also practical😍😄
I love your soap wrapping ideas - I dont even sell soap but I like to make them for myself - I have got the coffee filters and kraft masking tape like you showed - just to wrap my own soaps and give myself a little treat. Thank you for all your amazing generous help.
I love, love this video! I too have different ways of wrapping, I do love those boxes. The stamp for the boxes is a good idea. Thanks for being so generous with your ideas. I too am tech challenged, we all have our talents, don’t we.😊
When i started the video my son stood beside me. And when you sayed "hello" he answered "hello soapmaker" (he didnt understand your name) 🤣. So hello from odin 😁
Very well done video. Enjoyed watching.Your labels are very nice. I find simply done labels look great and don't break the label bank.👍 Cheers & Blessings👍💕
Such a great video. I've been spinning in circles trying to decide on ONE packing style but there's nothing wrong with having multiple! I overthink and your vid helped me realize I don't need to complicate it. Just do it. Thank you!

I like the packaging too! Great job Ellen. I think your labels are perfectly fine too. We are our own worst critics haha
