What's in a Name?

Often when I am set up at events in northeast Georgia selling my Crescent Mountain Soap, I am asked by a customer, “So, where is Crescent Mountain?” I have to chuckle to myself before I can answer….

All Things Currahee

Did you know that you can purchase Crescent Mountain Soaps in downtown Toccoa? That's right, you don't have to catch me on Satudays! Crescent Mountain Soaps are available at All Things Currahee which is located at 46 Doyle Street, Toccoa, GA.

Folk School at Camp Mikell

Have you ever agreed to do something and then think… Why? Why did I say I would do that?!? Well that’s exactly how I felt when I agreed to teach a soapmaking class at Camp Mikell’s Folk School! I have been making hot processed soap for about 3 years, but I’ve been making basically the same recipe. I decided that I should study up on a few things before I taught the class. The more I studied, a little panic set in! I realized that there is so much I need and want to learn! But I pressed on!

It's been a while! Soapmaking Tip!

Well... it has been a while since I last wrote a blog post. I guess life got in the way! Things have been crazy busy at Crescent Mountain Soaps!! I have a tip to share with you today.


I needed a spray bottle with alcohol. Several times I have filled the spray bottle with the alcohol and have tried really hard to not spill the alcohol as I fill the bottle. Well, I don't know if it is me or the alcohol, but I ALWAYS end up spilling and wasting alcohol every time I try!
