The Official Blog of Sailor Mouth Soaps

Long time followers might remember before Christmas last year I introduced the "Mystery Grab Bag"! Link to original post I'm offering these again for the same great price. For $15 you get: 3x Handmade soaps 1x Soy wax melt 1x Lip balm That's $30 value (at least)! Just pay $6.80 shipping and these babies can be shipped immediately within Australia. For $11.00 shipping you can buy as many as you want. I've been told these are a good way to get a "gift cupboard" going, for when you accidentally forget someones birthday and you have no time to run out and pick up a present, pronto! Simply email me at sailormouthsoaps (at) gmail (dot) com to grab yours. Only available for a short time.

Have a wonderful and safe Easter break!

So, admittedly, web design isn't a strong skill of mine. Everything I do on the blog or any online store takes a lot of messing about, trial and error and even then, the effect isn't all that amazing. So instead of worrying about it, I'm going to minimise and streamline my shops and pages online so that I can focus on beating my head against a wall with less pages! Hah! Big Cartel have a new theme available and it's actually pretty awesome and more useful for me that a lot of pre-made themes that cost double or triple the amount of money Big Cartel want. So I am starting to make there move towards selling there permanently. Eventually, down the line (waaaay down the line) I'd love to have my own website with a shopping cart and credit card facilities but since Sailor Mouth Soaps is a small little business, that's a long time away. For now, I'll have to make do! Also worth mentioning, I'm seriously considering getting rid of my Etsy store. Th...

Hello friends, Now for a topic that is close to my heart (and I know a lot of my customers and fellow crafters hearts) ....banning animal testing! http://www.change.org/en-AU/petitions/australians-for-cruelty-free-cosmetics The petition is a joint venture from three of the (amazing) major groups in Australia, who tirelessly work towards bringing Australia into a more ethical, caring and compassionate present and future. This petition is being sent to the Australian Minister for Health and Ageing See below for more information on each group. I will also point out that I'm a financial member of all of these groups! I strongly encourage you to sign this petition. In my experience, I have found even those that choose to eat meat and animal products, who are not vegetarian or vegan, are still morally outraged by the unnecessary and pointless horror of animal testing in cosmetics. Choose Cruelty Free (CCF) is an independent, non-profit organisation which acti...

Hello everyone, I'm very sorry to start the day with bad news. Unfortunatley due to illness I won't be able to attend the Brizvegas Kustom Karnival tomorrow . It's a pretty big bummer and I've had to let a friend down because of it. I haaaaate doing that. I'm working to get my migraines under control so I can re-open my online store and get some Sailor Mouth Soap love back into the hot little hands of my customers. Please bare with me while I try to get my health sorted out. I've been letting it get progressively worse for many years now. It's time to get it sorted! Thanks for understanding. xx
