I spent a couple of years reading up on soap making before taking the dive. Once I did, however, I found out just how fulfilling soap making can be! I started making large quantities of soaps in 2007. My sister has a business called Delightful Scents. She makes and sells Flameless Candles ("Smelly Jellies") and Soy Candles. Orders for her products can be made through me and the candles, along with any soaps you order, will be shipped together.
I use the same basic recipe for every bar of soap. It includes Lard, Coconut Oil, Safflower Oil, Lye and, of course, goat's milk from our herd of goats. Most bars also have a Fragrance Oil in them. I use commercial dyes in the majority of bars. Some of the scents give a tint to the bars naturally. Usually bars that have a Vanilla content to the fragrance oil. Colorants are noted in the description and on the labels of bars. There are a couple of bars that contain no fragrances or colorants.
Each batch of 42 bars is made by hand with each bar being hand cut. Due to making smaller batches; coloration, cut, and size does vary from batch to batch.
My bars average 3-4 ounces. I also make round soaps (around 3 ounces) and can make specialty small soaps as well.
Prices start at $3.00 per bar for your average 3-4 ounces and 4 bars for $10 (mix and match welcomed). If you order an entire batch - 42 normal bars (3-4 ounces) or 21 large bars(6-7 ounces)- you will receive a discount. I can also soap as few as 7 or 14 of one scent and coloration of your choice.
Current basic shipping costs are as follows-
$2.05 for one bar; $2.70 for two bars; $3.25 for three bars; $4.95 for 4-8 bars and 9 bars or more will be determined after your order is placed. When ordering larger bars, rounds and specialty soaps, shipping costs may vary from what is listed above. Flat Rate boxes cost $10.35 and can fit as many as 40 bars in each box. A larger box is available for more as well. See below for pictures and some of the scents currently available.
You can order by e-mailing me at SkyLark_RKR@yahoo.com or filling out the Contact Us page.
We accept Checks, Postal Money Orders, cash (at your own risk) and I am now set up to accept payments through Paypal. When using Paypal there may be a small additional fee added to your total.
If you are local, there are a couple of other options for soap pick-up. I can meet you locally to deliver your soap order. I also have a booth at SIBS located near the Ohio Valley Mall. SIBS is located next to JoAnn Fabrics where the old Hill's used to be.
Thanks!

Delightful Scents is my older sister's candle business. I am listing her available candles here for a one stop shopping experience. When you order, we will combine all of your orders into one shipment with one price.

Candles- The round 8 ounce jars on the table are Flameless Candles (Smelly Jellies).
Flameless candles are not burned. You take the lid off of the jar and set it on a solid surface. As the water evaporates from the gel the fragrance is released into the air. When the jar is about half empty, you add water, put the lid back on, shake it up and it is ready to go again, as the gel is revitalized. She had customers return to the PF this year and say their Flameless candles are still going strong. She has a flameless candle in her truck as an air freshener. I know I spend the winter with a "Sinus Relief" flameless open on the stand near my head. It helps me to breathe better at night. These are $7 each or 2 for $13. If you buy 3 at the regular price {$21} you get a fourth FREE. Available- Apple Cinnamon, Butt Naked, Cucumber Melon, Cinnamon, Eucalyptus, Gardenia, Granny's Kitchen, Hyacinth, Juniper Breeze, Lavender, Lilac, McIntosh Apple, Midnight Pomegranate, Patchouli, Strawberry Kiwi, Sugar Cookies, Sinus Relief and Vanilla Swirl. She can make these in other scents if we have the FO listed below. Please leave at least a week's time to have this done.

The Soy are just normal wick candles made with soy. These are $7 each or 2 for $13. If you buy three at the regular price {$21} you will get a fourth one FREE. Available- Apple Cinnamon, Banana Nut Bread, Butt Naked, Butter Cream, Cinnamon, Cleopatra's Treasure, Creme Brulee, Dragon's Blood, Dutch Apple Crisp, Love Spell Type, Midnight Pomegranate, Orange Clove, Patchouli, Plumeria, Sinus Relief, Smoke & Odor Eliminator, Strawberries & Champagne, Strawberries & Cream, Strawberry Kiwi, Sugar Cookies, Spiced Apple, Sweet Pea Type and Vanilla Swirl. These are the only scents available unless you place a large order.
The Wood Wick candles have a wooden wick and sound like a crackling fire when being burned. They burn stronger and the scent is then thrown further. The scents done in this are limited. They no longer sell the wicks for these, so the selection is limited to what has already been made. These are $10 each. *Note- I need to inventory these- Available- Banana Nut Bread, Blueberry Muffine, Dragon's Blood, Lick Me All Over, Grandma's Garden, Black Magic, Melon Splash, and Leather. Only one of each of the listed scents is available.
You can mix and match the Flameless and Soy candles when ordering. Please keep in mind that when ordering both soaps and candles, that the shipping costs will change due to the size of the candles.
I can make batches to fulfill most requests. It will be approximately one month from the time your order is placed until the time your soaps are ready, if I do not have any in stock. The soaps need to cure for at least three weeks before being used. Hence the wait. Please contact me at SkyLark_RKR@yahoo.com for more information.
If you have a request for a specific scent, feel free to contact me. I have a good sized array of fragrance oils available to me due to my sister's candle business. All scents I use are body safe.
The following are the scents I currently have available to soap. These are all soap safe and if you see a scent I do not have soaped, feel free to contact me about making a batch with your preferred scent(s). Listed in alphabetical order. Updated- 10/09
