The Soap Shed makes 130 varieties of handmade soap including goat milk soap, lye soap, shea butter soap and castile olive oil soap. Our handmade soap is created from scratch from raw ingredients imported from around the world, and uniquely combined with recipes created by us.
The handmade soap tradition is still well known in the Appalachian region, with many families still sharing first-hand memories of family members making their own soap in this geographically isolated and financially poor region. Not surprisingly, we heard requests for old fashioned, handmade soap for several years before making it. Because locals and regional visitors recognized and valued handmade craft, our efforts to create handmade soap using vegetable oils, goat milk and shea butter were well received, and The Soap Shed has grown and prospered since 1998.
One of our favorites since 1998, our luscious Pumpkin Cream is made with goat milk and colored with carrot juice and the brown that a touch of vanilla gives the bar - it LOOKS healthy and smells sinfully delicious!
Our Slope Soap protects your facial skin, whether you're walking through the woods or whistling down the ski slopes. Scented with grapefruit and bergamot for an icy, wintery scent.
How did Scarlett O'Hara conquer Rhett Butler and every man in Dixie? Could be the irresistable southern scents of magnolia, gardenia, and a touch of rose in this soap.
I bought seven bars of soap from you today, came home and tossed the bag on my bed. Several hours later my dog, Blue, was walking through the family room with something in his mouth. I thought it was part of his dog bone, but upon inspection I saw that it was a bar of soap. I took it back to the bedroom to discover all of the soap on the floor in various stages of disarray. It appears that Blue tasted them all and preferred the oatmeal. There were big teeth and bite marks on that one. My question is: should I have any concern about Blue eating a few bites of oatmeal soap and nibbles of other bars? It was a great afternoon of animals and soap. I didn’t think that combination would extend into the evening! No need to respond unless you have some concern about Blue. Thanks,
