Long post, but here's why my weekly email hasn't been sent out and why I won't have deliveries this week...
Hey y'all!
Sorry I didn't send an email last week and this week, it wasn't because I didn't try, trust me! For some reason, my email was not saving drafts or sending emails. There are no deliveries this week because Thursday is busy. On Thursday, I have my trial run of producing lotion! I'm so excited to finally add this to our products! I've made the lotion for a few years for personal use, but in order to legally sell it, the lotion must be made in a commercial kitchen. I have to schedule, rent, and take all my ingredients to another location. Thursday is my trial run making the lotions in a 'new' kitchen. I'll get used to all the supplies offered, where to find said supplies, and keep track of the time needed for production. At a later date, I will schedule with an inspector who will watch the entire process in order to approve production for sales. Lotions are considered a cosmetic, so there's more 'red tape' involved in order to sell it. I'm also finalizing liability insurance for the new product. If all goes well, lotions will be available just in time for the holidays! Lotions are perfect for gifts, and not to mention for yourself when the dry winter air wreaks havoc on our skin.
I also have to find time to stop by the 198 Market (Lawrenceburg) to finalize my set up. Ribbon cutting and grand opening day is Monday, Oct. 19!! Follow their page for more details and store hours.
There's a lot going on with the soaps, lotions, and personal life, but I wouldn't trade it!
