3/7/2024 0 Comments Happy Birthday!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

Jill McDowell - Founder 1/21/2024 0 Comments Grand Re-Opening"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!"

Enjoy. Jill 3/15/2023 0 Comments The beautiful youAs we enter into spring my mind is filled with flower thoughts inspired by warm dew and sunshine. This is an exciting time at Bittersweet. I just finished two new books that will be hitting the shelves soon, and I've began working on a third book. A fourth is also planned. Who knew? I certainly didn't. Life adventures are always there for the taking and get tossed in every now and then. Our shop is stocked with new spring soaps each week, and the fresh new scents are enchanting.
I'm wishing you a glorious spring filled with joy and happiness. Jill |
