Soaps by Jan

Being always allergic to most cosmetics and all commercial soaps, Jan Humphreys needed to find an alternative.  Many soaps from specialty shops claiming to be "all natural" still contain fragrance which is artificial and can draw whelps and induce headaches. After much study, Jan made her first batch of soap, which was intended for her and her family.  She really liked this craft and within days had made enough soap to supply a market.  She began going to fairs, craft shows, and festivals with her wares.  What started as one batch for her family grew into a cottage industry. 

Soaps by Jan has been vending up and down the east coast at pagan festivals and such for over a decade.  They are a major vendor at the Starwood Festival and all other fests held at Wisteria (www.wisteria.org)  Please take a moment to check out her website and see the wonderful items she has for sale!  http://www.soapsbyjan.com/
