Oh no don`t be sad..Widnes Vintage Rally Event Cancelled

Oh no soggy fields and big heavy vehicles make for a very messy day.
Widnes council has decided to cancel the weekend event due to bad conditions, Victoria Park where the event was going to be held is a public park that is used all year round, so they couldn`t afford to damage the grass for the rest of the year, so thats the bad news...
...the good news is we are back at Kenyon Farm Hall on Sunday instead Hurray!!
so never mind the rain, come down & visit all the fantastic crafters from the local area & browse their fantastic handmade gifts & treats, all undercover, dry & toasty warm.
Heavenly bodies have some cracking new soaps on display...together with our famous `skull `bath bombs which have been selling like hot cakes..so don`t miss out see you there on Sunday 30th September 2012

Future Events...Norton Priory Runcorn

We are looking forward to this weekend for the Widnes Vintage Rally, then our next venue will be at Norton Priory on the 14th October 2012 which is a truly beautiful place with amazing gardens and steeped in history, right on our doorstep!
An abbey which dates back to the 12th century, together with a museum makes for an interesting day out, however this day extra special because it`s `apple & quince day` it`s when we say farewell to the Summer & look forward to falling leaves and the ripe fruits of Autumn.
 A celebration of English fruits & a day of discovery.... market stalls along with a craft fair all with a chance to sample handmade jellies, jams & chutneys, these I`m sure will delight the taste buds...come along and say hello & enjoy a wonderful leisurely browse in heavenly surroundings.

Medusa

Yes we all have visions of the mythical creature named Medusa, with her wild hair made from green snakes & mad eyes that could turn you to stone! Well we suppose the colours & unusal shapes of our brand new soap just reminded us of her...so after a grubby day at work, whip off those work clothes, grab Medusa & take her in the shower & smell human again, with a zesty zingy grapefruity fragrance.
 As with all our soaps these are not `melt & pour` we don`t buy pre-made packets then throw it in a mould & consider it handmade!! These are made by our hands and the slices & swirls are lovingly cut...thats why so it`s special!!

so enjoy our soaps & if you have a chance read some of our past blogs to learn more about what we do....

OOh it`s so Caramelicious ..

Our On-Line Shop

Beautiful silky honey bee..just simply heavenly

After lots of requests, we have succumbed to making this none vegan soap.

It is of course still vegetarian. (check our previous blog entry when we talk about the source of the following ingredients) I must say that this has to be the most luxurious soap we have made to date, infused with tussah silk & honey along with our usual skin loving oils - and the smell is just an amazing sweet, warm, honey / vanilla fragrance and the texture, super silky smooth (no surprise there)..

We promised pictures, now 3 weeks for hardening... but might cut a small corner just off one bar.. just to test of course :-))

Gift boxes that have been ordered will be first in line for this new soap, a great unique handmade luxury gift for someone special.

Silky Honey Bee Cutting Tonight!! ;-)) Watch this space!

This evening is cutting time, excited as this is the first time we have used real tussah silk in our soap, I have to say the smell is amazing!! the addition of honey in this batch has given the soap a rich honey yellow colour which is beautiful, the gentle sweet aroma seems to ooze out from it...wow...we cannot wait to get it in the shower!! ..this soap will be ready for sale at our next event which is Widnes Vintage Rally on September 29th / 30th 2012. Till tonight then.....

SLS- Whats the story???

Several customers and friends have asked us what SLS is & why exactly do people make a big song & dance about it!  SLS is short for Sodium Lauryl Sulfate and is an organic compound used in many cleaning and hygiene products and acts as a foaming agent. So why is it so bad for us? Basically, it gets under the skin and can cause dryness, rashes, itching, irritation and break-outs. As stated above its in a lot of commercial soaps and for most people using it in small amounts isn’t a huge concern, but if you have sensitive or dry skin, you may want to avoid it altogether.

People who use products with SLS in, may in most cases report no problems but may not realise when they suffer from dry patches that this is a reaction to this additive. We have heard back from a lot of people who used Natural soaps for the first time and found that all their skin problems mysteriously vanished, one reason would be the absence of chemicals like SLS and the fact that the good glycerin is not removed.

These along with other reasons are clear examples of what your skin wants… and needs to be at it’s best! Next time you go to your local supermarket just take time out to turn over any product in the toiletries aisle...you maybe surprised to find the ones that claim to be the most gentle on skin contain one of the nasty chemicals we go on about.. yes you guessed it... SLS

The wait is over.....the secret is out....

well well....someone was watching me!! eye balls everywhere, super fantastic ghoulish eye balls, using allergen free fragrance & painstakingly handpainted with skin safe colours these are ready to scare the wits out of your little monster / witch / children!?

Silk & Honey Super Soft luxury soap??

What a wonderful day!!!

Thanks to `Created in W.A` organiser Sandra & warrington market, it was a wonderful busy Saturday, complete with crowds, sunshine & free entertainment .....from donkey`s to morris dancers....sausage rolls to soap...an eclectic array of something for everyone. The best of British was what was offered, & by jingo thats what the people got,!! We love these events were everyone gets a chance to touch try & smell our products, every age range from kids to grannies !!
 We hoped we would escape home without armfuls of goodies, but alas no, we couldn`t resist the fabulous handmade food & gifts.
The biggest surprise of the day for us at Heavenly Bodies was the popularity of our `mini bath bomb` gift pack, which was a winner with the boys ( & their mums!! ) ...so what would you know??!! & `our customers favourite soap of the day` was `Outer Space`, so only 4 bars left...
Lets keep our fingers crossed for next Sunday...that the sun shines again !! xx
