2007 Holiday Events
People like to give our soap as a gift.
More importantly, people like to RECEIVE our soap as a gift. Hopefully we
can help your holiday budget with our affordable soaps and gift sets. We
can also customize sets - just let us know what you'd like by calling
877-374-7627 or by sending an e-mail.
This year we won't do very many holiday
events. The few we will do will be listed below as we get the
information. We will also offer scheduled pick-ups for bulk orders, as
well as our usual shipping options.
Also, we will have a great sale price at the
Wedge Co-op for the month of December! This is a great place to pick
up our soap at $2.39 per bar, and they will carry all 12 of our soaps (Twin
Cities area co-op membership required for this discount price).
NOTE: Events are in chronological order,
so scroll through this page for information.
A list of our sale events for
the holidays is below, where you can shop for our soaps and a great variety of
other handmade, high-quality arts and crafts. We'll try to add info on
other vendors so you know what to expect. Also, we can always arrange an appointment for local customers.
If you get lost trying to find any of
these, just call 612-374-3613 and we'll help you out.
These events are also on our downloadable holiday
flyer.
