Wrap, Wrap, Wrap, They Call Him The Wrapper!

Ha ha.  (If you know the song these lyrics are from, I know your age!)  Been busy wrapping soaps today for the Scarecrow Festival and that song popped into my head.

Worked on lotion this week and wax tarts.  Busy bee, that's me.  Hope you can join us on October 8 and 9 in beautiful downtown Chappell Hill!  Hope the weather holds!  Looks  now like maybe a change of rain that weekend.  OF COURSE!!  No rain in months, but that weekend, look out!  Hey, we want the rain, no matter what.

Scarecrow Festival in Chappell Hill

I am going to have a booth at the Scarecrow  Festival in Chappell Hill, TX on October 8 and 9.  Should be fun.  Hopefully not so hot!  I'll be right on Main Street, just south of Providence.   Hope you can stop by!

Here's a pic of perfume I am making.

More Adventures in Soap!

Well, got through the Chappell Hill Lavender Festival - it went well.  Hotter than heck, but we lived!  Had a large attendance, people are such troopers in the heat!  Here is a pic of some sugar soap in coconut milk and a pic of soap in Lemon Verbena.  These soaps contain sugar which adds loads of lather and light exfoliation.  Super cool, if you ask me.  I've gotten good feedback on this soap and hope to actually sell some soon!  If you have a chance, stop by my store at tuckerhilltx.etsy.com.

Lavender Festival

It's finally here!  Tomorrow, Saturday, at 9:00 at the Chappell Hill Lavender Farm.  Too bad it's hotter than hades out there.  It's hot every August, but it is extreme this year.  Hope to have a good turnout, anyway.  Got everything set up and ready to go today and will be out there early tomorrow with my beautiful assistant, my niece Leigh.  Come visit my booth.  Would love to see you there!

Lavender Festival at Chappell Hill Lavender Farm

This year the annual Lavender and Wine Festival is August 13, 2011 at the Chappell Hill Lavender Farm!  Lots to see and do - lots of vendors selling unique handmade items.  Also check out the farm's gift shop - plenty of items there, too! Tucker Hill will have a booth there offering all kinds of bath, body and home fragrance goodies.  The lavender farm is in Brenham just off Route 1155.  Check out the farm's website at chappellhilllavender.com.  The farm is about an hour drive from Houston - just go out 290 west - turn right on 1155 at the Chappell Hill stop light (you can't miss it - it's the first stop light on 290 from Houston and there is a Rustler's at the corner with a Burger King).  Stay on 1155 until it ends - turn right - drive about 2 miles and turn left on Dillard Road.  The farm is down a few hundred yards on the right.  There will be signs directing you - you won't get lost!  We would love to see you there!
