Pot Marigold.Handmade is a Sligo based business run by Yerlin Brady, passionate about natural living, arts & crafts, organic horticulture, and nature photography. Our products are made in small batches from natural ingredients. Local when possible. We use plant dyes, and clays for colour but also for it's benefits on the skin. We use essential oils, plant-based oils, butters, and we enriched our

body products with calendula oil, which is known as a healer and soothing medicinal flower. We don't use palm oil, preservatives, or quemicals in our products and we use recycled paper for our soap packaging. Our aim is to bring joy and promote natural self-care through lovingly and unique crafted gifts.

One of the questions I’m often asked is how I dry botanicals and herbs for soap making. 🌿

This is blog post I shared before but in case you didn't see it and are interested.

Here’s my simple method for harvesting and drying them at home. Nothing fancy! I’ve also shared a few tips and some of the botanicals I
find work best in soap or as decoration🧼🙂‍↔️

Last Saturday, I made a small batch during my workshop to demonstrate how I make cold-process soap from scratch.

I used a milk carton as the mould, and I got around seven bars of soap from it 😀
It’s always exciting seeing the finished bars after cutting 🧼

I Coloured the batch with pink clay and added oats for a lovely, gentle, exfoliating feel.
Smell is lovely, a blend of Rose geranium and lavender essential oils 💜 👌

At the moment, I have a soap making workshop scheduled for November. I’m still deciding about a September class, so if you’d like to be the first to know about upcoming dates, make sure you’re subscribed to my email list 🧼 🌼

Inspired by the Ox Mountains, I took my rose candle for a little cycling stroll. It was a pleasant evening, we foraged some hazelnuts on the way home, too 🙂💖🚵‍♀️🚵‍♂️🌿

I’ve been making soap for 6 years now and have experimented with many different colourants 🌈

I’ve put together a little guide to some natural colourants you can use in soapmaking, including some of my favourites and ones I currently use in my soaps.

P.S. It’s frustrating that you’re limited to adding just two links per month unless you pay for an upgrade… so because of that. I added the link on my profile. Sorry Meta is making things more difficult for us now !
