Here at Black
Sheep Soaps...something is
always getting stirred up - the soap kettle that is
! The home crafts of the pioneers are alive and
well.
We love making
soap...it's that simple. All things country and
living the simple life, is truly a pleasurable life. It's
about planting our garden's and preparing healthy food
from scratch, knowing you are giving your family the best...it's
about hanging out the family wash on the line to dry
naturally in the breeze...it's about spinning wool to
provide yarn to make garments for warmth...it's about
working with what you have,
be it a suburban yard or acres in the country. All of
our products are made right on our "suburban homestead".
Making handmade
soap, brings back the memories of our great-grandmother
preparing for the coming winter by putting up food after
the harvest, checking on her supplies and getting ready
the household. The entire family had their chores
to do, and every little pair of hands were kept busy.
She made up her
soap only once or twice a year, spending the day tending
the fire and stirring up her large kettle of soap, then
pouring the mixture into simple molds. What was
a necessity for them, is truly a luxury for us. The
beauty of a handmade bar of soap, and the delight of
adding some fragrance such as lavender brought a special
scent to her soap bars. She not only provided
soap for bathing, it also took care of the family laundry,
kitchen and housecleaning ! It is a simple pleasure
that is still being continued today.
Please know that all our bath products are never tested
on animals, only family & friends and they are completely
biodegradable (good for you...good for the earth).
They are all made with the simple philosophy of
making something by hand that is useful, needful and
beautiful !
We invite you
to take a moment, and see the handmade country products
we have to offer you and enjoy.
