Gypsy Hill

I have just taken some piccy's of some beautiful soaps I was incredibly thrilled to recieve in the mail a few days ago.
I met Natalie (of Gypsy Hill handmade in Tasmania) at a Women's Business E-Commerce workshop in Launceston and after a wee chat, we agreed to do a swapsie.... my candles for her soaps. Pretty sure I got the better end of the deal!
This full box of gorgeous smelling soaps arrived and suddenly my two little candles just didn't seem enough! Rest assured there will be recompense!
Natalie chooses to use no nasties in her products (palm oil, scary preservatives and such) but fills them up with yummy stuff like essential oils, botanical extracts, molasses, unpasturized goats milk, honey, jojoba and wheat germ, to name a few. She also makes a Bath Milk, (which I can't wait to try out with hubby and a bottle of bubbly) and I know she has other skin care products such as a Rosemary and Nettle Shampoo Bar. Brilliant!
Some of the soaps she sent me are: Molasses & Oats; Honey & Wheat Germ; Mugacino (with fair trade coffee grounds); Choc Mint & a Blush Complexion Bar (with rose petals and silk fibres).

Natalie is working on her website but you can contact her here for more information and pricing! I know she is being kept busy with orders which is wonderful - I know I am looking forward to sudsing up with my first bar.

Those soaps look lush. I didn't know you made candles ... my partner and I are candle freaks. If we don't have a nice scented one to burn of an evening we feel very deprived ;)

Is there somewhere online I could check them out?

They look lovely, and the bath milk sounds very relaxing.

Dont understate your candles, they are beautiful. I love them.
