We kicked things off this morning with 𝟴𝟬 𝗯𝗮𝗿𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝗠𝘂𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗱 𝗖𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗯𝗲𝗿𝗿𝘆 𝗦𝗼𝗮𝗽—warm, bright, spicy, and perfectly cozy for the season.

Made with Himalayan rhubarb root–infused olive oil, creamy coconut milk, beautiful pink clays, and topped with cranberry seeds. The scent is a festive blend of orange, cinnamon, clove, balsam fir, and litsea—like a simmering pot of cranberry goodness on a crisp autumn day.

Sometimes the prettiest things come from a change of plans. 🌿

Tonight’s soap pour was supposed to be one more batch of our beloved Spearmint Patchouli—but we discovered we were just a little short on spearmint oil. With cucumber purée, creamy coconut milk, kaolin clay, and chlorophyll already ready to go, we decided to create something entirely new instead.

𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗱𝘂𝗰𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗦𝗽𝗮 𝗗𝗮𝘆 ✨

A soft, soothing cucumber green soap made with an entire can of creamy coconut milk, then scented with cool spearmint, bright litsea, grounding frankincense, and a touch of dark patchouli.

At the very last minute, we added aloe vera extract too—because it suited this fresh, soothing little bar perfectly.

It smells fresh, calming, clean, and just a little bit luxurious—the kind of soap that makes an ordinary shower feel like a little escape.

I have a feeling this happy accident may become a favourite. 🤍

It feels WAY too early to be thinking about holiday soaps—especially on such a beautiful autumn day! 🍂 But handmade soap needs time to cure, so here we are! 😂

We thought we’d kick things off with our top-selling soap—𝗦𝗽𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗺𝗶𝗻𝘁 𝗣𝗮𝘁𝗰𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗶!

Made with puréed cucumber and creamy coconut milk, and scented with pure spearmint & dark patchouli essential oils, this minty, earthy favourite is making its comeback! 💚

Teamwork makes the dream work! Thanks to my hubby’s help, we got these 80 bars poured AND the soap studio cleaned up behind us in record time. 🥰

Still enjoying autumn… just getting a head start on the holiday soap stash! 🍂🎁

A little behind the scenes in my soap studio… 🌿🤎

We just launched our fall soaps yesterday, and today I’m already preparing for the big push of holiday soapmaking! 🎄😂

But before the next round begins, my soap studio needed a good clean and reset. Clear counters, organized supplies, and empty curing racks waiting to fill up again!

There’s so much that happens before a handmade bar ever reaches the display, and today this was my part of the process. It feels so good to have my little creative space ready for another season of making. 🤎

Fall on the shelves… Christmas in the soap studio! 🧼🎄

Our Lavender & Ladybugs essential oil line has been rebranded as 𝗔𝗯𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝗟𝗶𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗔𝗽𝗼𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗰𝗮𝗿𝘆, and we’re so excited to share a first look!

We’ve carefully selected top-quality organic essential oils from a reputable Canadian supplier for our own in-house collection. We’re proud to make quality essential oils affordable and available close to home, so our community and surrounding area can shop local with confidence. 🌿

These are just a few of our new labels—delicate botanicals, warm brown lettering, and our little ghost moth tucked into the background. Months of dreaming, designing, and adjusting the tiniest details… and seeing them on the bottles makes me so happy. 🥹

A 𝗵𝘂𝗴𝗲 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝘂𝘁-𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝗔𝗹𝗰𝗼𝘁𝘁 𝗘𝗺𝗯𝗿𝗼𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘆 for printing these beautiful labels right here locally! Thank you for helping bring this vision to life. 🤎

From cozy Pumpkin Pie and Morning Coffee to golden Dandelion Honey and dreamy Wanderlust, each bar has its own scent, character, and little story.

Seeing them dressed in their new Abundant Living Apothecary labels makes my heart so happy. So much care has gone into this collection, and I can’t wait to share it with you. 🥹

Tomorrow we build the fall display… stay tuned for the reveal!

🌿 Lavender Fields 🌿

This one came together a little differently than usual.

No complicated design.
No swirling.
Just a simple, steady pour… and a beautiful result.

Scented with Bulgarian lavender, rosemary, patchouli, and a touch of benzoin — it’s soft, grounding, and just a little bit herbal in the best way.

The color comes naturally from a strong alkanet infusion, giving it this muted, earthy lavender tone that feels calm and timeless.

Sometimes the simplest batches end up being the ones I love the most.

Ready in one month.
