We're looking forward to a fun-filled summer! Our late summer soap blends are in the works, and my lavender gardens are beginning to bloom. If you haven't visited our brick-and-mortar shop yet, we invite you to experience our unique take on summer.
From everlasting flower bouquets to handmade flower presses, our shop is designed to inspire you to pause and appreciate the beauty of life. Our handmade soaps, crafted with pure ingredients, enhance your bathtime experience. Each week, we introduce new soaps alongside a curated collection of skincare products. We can't wait to share our latest summer creations with you. We know you'll love them all! Warm Regards, Jill McDowell As we gracefully transition into spring, we're thrilled to unveil our delightful collection of spring soaps. This limited edition won't be around for long, so seize the opportunity to indulge in these seasonal treasures. Among them, the timeless scent of lilac holds a special place in our hearts.
At Bittersweet, we believe it's the little pleasures in life that truly matter, and treating yourself to fresh new soaps is one of those cherished moments. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to everyone who joined us in celebrating our twenty-seventh birthday. Your support and patronage throughout the years mean the world to us. Here's to embracing the gentle rhythm of spring. Warm regards, Jill McDowell Bittersweet's soap and apothecary stands tall on the pillars of trust and perseverance. This April marks our 27th anniversary, a testament to our commitment. Our expertise lies in crafting skincare solutions that prioritize purity and nourishment. Rest assured, the trust you've placed in us remains our utmost priority.
It's hard for me to believe that it's been twenty-seven years since I made my first batch of soap. Which by the way if not for my Aunt Vivian probably would not have ever happened. She's the third generation soap maker in my family. Many can lay claim to one of two generations, but it's rare to have four. I'm thankful for her kind spirit and that she made soap back in 1997 when soap making was really kind of non existence. It's a great story and one that I'm sharing in a book called Soap Up My Sleeve. I'm getting close to sending it to the publisher. As we approach spring a time of renewal it feels appropriate to design new modern apothecary. Stay tuned as we welcome the opportunity to share these new creations with you. Happy Spring! Jill McDowell-Founder Spring signifies a time of rejuvenation, and at Bittersweet, we wholeheartedly embrace this opportunity to unveil new soaps and skincare products that we believe amplify the essence of the season. The contagious excitement reverberates throughout our shop as we draw inspiration from the blooming beauty of spring. If it's been a while since your last visit, now is the ideal moment to step through our doors. Leave your worries behind and immerse yourself in our distinctive atmosphere, where every product is crafted with care to enhance your springtime experience. Jill McDowell - Founder "Get ready to join the celebration at our shop on Saturday, January 27! With the weather breaking, our shelves are bursting with new essentials to make your celebration even more special. But wait, there's more – we've got a few surprises up our sleeve! It's an exciting return, and we can't wait to see your smiling faces, especially as you enjoy the perks of our annual soap sale, gathering a ton of savings. Save the date, it's going to be an event you won't want to miss!" "I'm thrilled to announce that we're back and up and running! The excitement is palpable as we celebrate our return with an array of new skincare items and select clothing pieces – wrapped in winter, yet shining for spring. Anticipating a large crowd for our annual soap sale, and the intense interest in our new product lines, I spent the morning loading up a hundred pounds of soap, adding to our existing stash of around two hundred pounds. That sums up to a whopping three hundred pounds of sale soap! The weather has finally eased up from the extreme cold, arriving just in time for our return. And that's not all – I'm currently working on our Spring line, and the anticipation to share these new items as we get closer to spring is growing. Additionally, I've put together some old-fashioned Valentines to hand out on Saturday, inspired by the joy of receiving them as a kid. It's a soulfully nice touch to bring that nostalgic charm back to the shop. Our soap sale kicks off from 12 pm - 4 pm. While I've upped the inventory this year, I can't imagine we won't sell out on the first day – it usually happens!" Warm Wishes, Jill We're delighted to announce early access to our handmade holiday soaps in our shop. We started unveiling these exquisite, beautifully wrapped bars just yesterday, and all signs indicate that our instincts were spot on! We're thrilled to offer this exclusive, handcrafted collection ahead of the holiday season. I'll be delivering new holidays soaps each week from now until December 23. Happy Holidays!
Jill We're rolling along enjoying the fall ride as we style new fall into winter soaps and sundries. This is an exciting time at our shop as we introduce and wheel out yummy new soap flavors that please the fastidious of folks.
I've already started holiday soap manufacturing and our make schedule is on target so that we can share our artisan goods with our patrons and friends of Bittersweet. Wishing you a slow-down fall, with pumpkin carving, hay rides, and time spent with family and friends. Jill McDowell Lincoln With a gentle tiptoe into the season of fall, we are brimming with anticipation and excitement.
