Market and Website

We are happy to announce that the website is going under construction by an official not-Dorothy webmaster! It will still be open for shopping and updates on where to find us while the she works her magic in making your input and our dreams come to life. You should start finding a more streamlined look, easier to navigate pages, and quicker updates on new stock as we make these transitions. We are also expanding our online voice and you will find posts from other personalities in the company on the blog soon. Please keep those comments and emails coming as we love to hear feedback.

Don’t forget this weekend we can be found at Fenske’s Market. The market is in the barn and we’ll update everyone via Facebook while we’re there. Street address for GPS users is 17719 Telge Road, Cypress, TX and is about 1/2 mile north of the Grant Rd intersection. There will be lots of great goodies to find out there so come on out and support your local small businesses this weekend!

I must now get back in the soap room to make sure everything’s ready to go in the morning. Have a great Friday everyone.

Happy Washing!
Dorothy

Shopping Area being updated

Dorothy’s been busy at work in the kitchen around us attending the Spring Crawfish Festival last weekend and a family emergency. We’ll be updating the shopping area of the website over this weekend with the new creations so that we can share with everyone. For a sneak peek at the new goodies and the glory of smelling everything in person, stop by and see us Friday thru Sunday at our booth! We’re located right inside Puffabelly’s Zydeco Corner with Angie’s Bits o Glass and it’s a great time for the whole family out there! We have the promised Honeysuckle soap for everyone along with a few happy surprises. Our outdoor enthusiasts, we have what you need before you go play in the woods. The Texas Suds with Shiner Beer soap ran out last weekend but we had her making more to feed our addiction. There will be plenty of the St Arnold version of our beer soap out there though so no one needs to pout, promise! Next week will bring new pics to the blog and a Mother’s Day deal for those who can’t make it out to the festival. So stick around here for some soaping excitement with Dorothy’s sarcastic humor and come play with us at the festival. Either way, we’re gonna have a lot of fun.

See you there!

Some new pictures

Just a few soap pictures from the past few weeks of work to brighten up your Monday morning! Enjoy!

Swirling practice with natural colorants April 2013

Practicing my swirling and with the herb colorants more. This swirl was fun but not quite what I was looking for. The scent was a huge hit though and made it to the keeper list!

Olive and Castor Unscented Soap April 2013
Olive and Castor Unscented Soap April 2013

As requested by many, a plain olive and castor oil soap again. This one will be live in the catalog by the end of the month and also available at our booths this month. The plain pioneer style one will also be live again soon.

Freshly cut Raspberry and Chocolate soap

Made another run of the Raspberry and Chocolate also. This picture is freshly cut and shows how red it gets before the vanilla really kicks in and darkens it up. This is such a great smell in the bathroom!

More posts to come soon but wanted to share a little love with everyone on a Monday morning. I must return to the oils and finish whipping up a few more batches of soap. I will be lurking in the background around the site today so drop me a line if you have any questions or catch me on our Facebook page. We will be at both the CyFair Craft Show on Telge Road next weekend and at the Spring Crawfish Festival for the last two weekends of the month. Stop by and say hi! Guys only: don’t forget to email me at dorothy@texaspioneercreations.com if you were interested in joining the final round of feedback for two new men’s scents or adding a comment below! It is Monday so please make sure to be specific in your email- I’m finishing up the first cup of coffee still 🙂

Happy Washing!

Dorothy
