About Sunrise Lane Soap

IT ALL STARTED WITH AN ALPACA...

My journey into soapmaking started on an alpaca farm in the summer of 2023.  After a fun morning learning about alpacas and taking them for a "walk" around the grounds, we stopped in the farm's gift shop. I spotted a selection of handmade bar soaps. I was impressed with the scents and simple ingredients and bought two to take home. It only took one use, and I was completely HOOKED.  

Almost immediately, I began researching the art of soapmaking.  I fell in love with the chemistry and the artistry of creating soap. Soapmaking has become the best of both worlds for me: the scientific side of me loves that it's a chemistry experiment every time I make a batch of soap. The artistic side of me loves playing with the rainbows of colors, designs, and fragrances used in making a batch of soap.

While I love the artistry of soapmaking, I never want my soaps to be in the camp of "too pretty to use."  I've created my soaps to be functional: in the shower, at the kitchen sink, or on the bathroom counter.

WHY "SUNRISE LANE"?

My grandparents address was 123 Sunrise Lane. Sunrise Lane Soap is not only paying homage to family and ancestry, but it is also a sentiment to a more time-honored way of living. I don't know what I would do without modern conveniences, but I definitely appreciate the simpler things in life. Making my own soap has become a part of that appreciation and why Sunrise Lane Soap was born.

Thank you for being here! I am having SO MUCH FUN over here, and I want to share that joy with all of you.

With love,
