The Dirt...

This site & soaps are a collaboration between a mother & son on something they both enjoy... being creative.

Any of you who've been here before know I like to keep busy... so between university, sports and life time to blog is hard to find but when I can I do.
ps I really enjoy reading your comments.

Laters,
J.

deeper side?


Lately I've been wondering about my blog...I have kept the posts mild and basically just about soap and a few events in my life...you know generic n safe.
 But lately I've explored a few other peeps blogs and see a wide range of topics covered, some that are quite umm...r-rated and some just plain 'nut bar'. I'm not interested in going to either extreme but I'm debating making my blog more 'me', more thoughts, more in your face kinda stuff...but does that take away from the soap side?
 Would anyone care? 
Should I create a new 'personal only' type blog and keep this one general? 

 I decided to add another blog...more personal less soap.

Dude...just so you know...

...when I saw your blog was 'soap with balls,' I was totally thinking X-rated anyway.

Not that I want to see soapy balls and shit. I can do that on my own.

In fact, hold on...I'll be right back.

Oops, made a booboo.

Advice from someone who created too many blogs. LOL!! I think it is best to have one and blog about whatever you want. I created a few: one for soap, one for family and one for the cards I make. It is exhausting. I know from bloggers who visit mine, it would be easier just to have it all in one place. I wish I could combine them all now but haven't found a way :(

I look forward to reading more of your blog, go with it, share you thoughts :) Whatever you decide, I'll visit more than one.

Quite happy to read about you and your deeper darker side. I am told old to be shocked because I've already done it all. :-)

Thanks for the feedback. Wasn't going to go all out and reveal my wildside...lol...just wondered if biz & personal should be separated . I think I'll try it for a bit & see.

Thanks

Testimonials on my soap



I saw SoapWithBalls in a forum post a few weeks ago and was so intrigued with the fabulous shop name and even more intrigued that the avatar for a soap shop was of a young man, I just had to click! After reading the shop announcement written by his mom I really wanted to give this shop it's first sale. My family (my hard working carpenter husband, a sweaty skate boarding teenage son, and a stinky little league catcher) love handmade soap and purchase all of our soap on Etsy. When I saw the manly soap in super large sizes, I thought, this is perfect.

After my purchase, he promptly sent me a thank you convo and shipping information. The communication and customer service I received was wonderful and refreshing. After receiving my Cut Lumber 10oz. bar of soap, I proudly presented it to my dear husband and he immediately took it with him into the shower. I'll tell ya, I've never seen a cleaner man in my life! I wish you the best of luck with your shop, and I will be back when our Cut Lumber starts thinning out :)

Cut Lumber-this is a huge bar of hunky soap perfect for that dirty hunky manly man in your life. This soap is definitely ballsy and not for sissies! No foo foo girly smelling soap here!

Blackstrap Licorice-Licorice was my favorite candy when I was a kid and the smell of this soap makes me want to take a bite out of it! 

Now I'm eyeing that lilac soap, it looks lovely!

His soaps, I mean. He sent me some incredibly luscious soaps and I am SO happy with my purchase! He is the best cabana boy ever- make sure you have all of his products for your own cabana!
