MsJudy's Rainwater Collection For Homemade
Soap Making!
Recent
repairs were made on MsJudy's rainwater collection
system at the ranch. Thanks to son JimmyG for doing
all the fixin' up! Only pure ranch rainwater that's
collected off a 850 square ft barn-tin covered shed
is used in making her soap. This 150 gallon tub can
be filled with a half inch rainfall! The white plastic
barrels are used to collect more water when soap production
is the highest.
Each sampler box of soap is comprised of six different scents that bring together the theme of the collection of soaps. Colorful fabric is used to line the box and is wrapped around each bar of soap. The Holiday Sampler consists of individual bars of:
- Frankincense & Myrrh |
