Soap Dreams

Martin & Peta

 

If you pass through the bustling market town of Macroom on a Tuesday, perhaps on your way to Cork or Killarney, you will see us at our market stall! We make our natural soap by hand in our kitchen just up the road, and sell it locally at markets and craft fairs.We always wanted to try our hand at making real, natural soap, and in 2006 we proudly produced our first bars made from coconut, olive and sunflower oil, and scented only with pure essential oils which are distilled from flowers, herbs and trees.And (as if we needed an excuse to create a beautiful garden) we harvest petals from the sea of gold and orange calendula flowers, and rosemary leaves from our own fragrant bushes, and nutritious nettles from our wildlife patch,  all used in our various soaps. Lovely!
