Lemon Meringue Pie soap is here!

I am so ridiculously excited to add this soap to our Etsy store that I had to share! This soap is the perfect sweet summer soap. It's got tart lemon, a tangy spun-sugar meringue fragrance, and a rich, buttery graham-cracker-like fragrance all blended together. The family was much disappointed that I wasn't actually baking a pie the day I tested this scent! On top of that, the bottom layer is a bright, glossy yellow, like the pudding filling, with a white "meringue" top - and it's a pretty weighty 5 ounces.

We're not the only shop offering a Lemon Meringue Pie soap (but we are one of only a handful), but I think the value and size for the price is the best around! We also offer this bar in a sample size if you'd like to try it first - but I'm pretty sure you're going to love it.

We're having a SALE!

We're having a Spring Clearance Sale from today, through May 15th at Bunnies & Buggies Boutique on Etsy. Don't worry, we're not closing! We've marked down several vintage items as well as several soap fragrances that we've either temporarily discontinued, or were just made from our older style bar shape - we're trying to get a more consistent look in our soaps, so we're clearing out those that are in the old style! Some items on sale include our Island Coconut soap, Peppermint Kissed soap, Sugar Plum Fairy soap, vintage dish and glassware and more!

Items have been marked down up to 75% off the original prices, so please stop by and check out our sale section today!

We've added something totally NEW in our Etsy shop!

Part of being away for a year included finding some limited time to really explore more hobbies, crafts, interests, etc. Although I had done soapmaking in the past, it was always something that was too time AND space consuming when we lived in our much smaller place in New York, and honestly it's a bit pricey to start up with. Last year though, I decided to get back into it, and we (me, my husband, and Bug) have all really taken it and RAN! Now we're at the point where we are adding 3-5 new fragrances to our shop every single week. Crazy, right?

Well, we went beyond that this week, and introduced a totally new product. It's a bath puff soap on a rope, and it looks like this:

Bath Puffy Soap on a Rope!

I tried one, on a whim, and as soon as it was ready, I ran around the house quite literally screaming, "OH MY GOD IT'S JUST AS AWESOME AS I IMAGINED!". Hubby treated me like I lost my mind a bit, but oh well.


I had considered trying to do a classic soap on a rope, but that left me thinking, "Well, what the heck is someone going to want a leftover rope for? There's got to be something better than this." I was able to find nylon bath puffs for a good price, and it all sort of clicked.

There is an ENTIRE bath "pouf", "puffy", "scrubby" - whatever you might call it - completely embedded and submerged in a solid soap bar. I left the top rope piece out, because really, you should hang or shelve a soap to dry after using it. (It will help the soap last longer.)

I've been testing one for the past month, and really, I know I made them but they're just THAT GREAT! They're awesome for kids because everything is contained - it's a combo soap and washcloth in one, and it doesn't get easily lost in the tub. They're HUGE - at just a hair under 10 ounces - double the size of our regular soap bars, and triple the size of a normal retail soap bar - and can last for over a month (depending on frequency of use of course).

We're introducing these in the shop in Fresh Picked Blueberry, Strawberry Soda Pop, and Good Morning, Sunshine scents, but we can actually make them in custom fragrances as well if requested. And, here's a secret - stop by our Etsy store, and if you want to purchase one, send me a message that you saw it on our blog first, and we'll give you $1 off as well!

Mom Reviews: Bath and Body Works Anti-Bacterial Moisturizing Soap

A good soap for the whole family can be very hard to find! I'm a big fan of Bath & Body Works Wild Honeysuckle Anti-bacterial Moisturizing Hand Soap because it both moisturizes your skin as well as leaving you fresh and clean. All parents know, when you have kids, constant hand washing is inevitable - both your hands and theirs. You can read my full review here but we give it 4 out of 5 stars!
