Who We Are

Thank you for visiting my online store! Bee Thankful Soaps was created in January 2023, but it was a dream long before then. I was introduced to homemade, all natural, cold processed soap almost fifteen years ago when my Aunt Edie took me to a farmer's market in Lakeland, FL. For many years I supported local soap makers and exclusively used their products. One day I thought, "how hard could it be?" and attempted my first batch of cold process soap using products around my house and from a nearby craft store. It wasn't awesome, but it also wasn't that bad either. I continued over the years making small batches for my husband and myself, as well as family and close friends. I watched countless videos, tutorials, and read books, all on the art of making cold process soap. I learned the importance of using quality oils and butters, along with creating tried and true recipes that produced nourishing lathers and a soap that left the skin feeling soft and smooth without all the harsh, unpronounceable chemicals that you find in store bought brands.

Each of my soaps are handcrafted in small batches to ensure that you are purchasing a quality product. Many hours of love, attention, and consideration goes into each loaf and each bar of soap. No two bars are alike! It is only tested on humans and does not contain any parabens, phthalates, preservatives, or detergents.

I hope you enjoy my soap as much as I have enjoyed making them for you!
