Mrs K's Creations: Photos and Full Product line


Following are descriptions, pricing, and photos of the products I am currently offering.  All of my products are handcrafted in my home.  I only use essential oils, because I have not found good quality fragrance oils with ingredients I can trust.  I responsibly harvest herbs in woods, meadows, and my garden.

A listing of essential oils (EO’s) is included at the end, along with popular scent blends of EO’s.  I love to be creative, so if you want something you don’t see, contact me by pm or e-mail and I’ll work with you on it.

I do not use preservatives, so it is important to keep the products clean and dry (soap excepting).  With the salves, it is recommended that you use a clean cotton swab or other implement to remove the required amount.  With the other products, wash your hands with soap and water before touching the contents to prevent introducing molds and bacteria.

Regarding the balms and body butters, these are made from whipped tallow, which incorporates air, much like whipped cream.  If they are exposed to heat, the tallow will melt a bit and the product will not be as fluffy.  It is still just as nourishing to the skin and good to use.

Most products are made to order, however, soap making is a three-week process.  With soap, if you desire a custom blend, there will be a surcharge of $3.00 per bar, unless you order at least 7 bars (a half batch).

Measurement is by volume, not by weight.

Shipping costs:  ½ oz containers fit into the small flat-rate boxes, which ship for $5.95.  Most other orders will ship in medium flat-rate boxes, at $12.65.  These are the priority boxes, which are usually delivered in 2-3 business days.

Payment is through PayPal and is required before products ship.

Balms and Salves:
Wilding Salve ½ oz $2.99  2 oz $10.49

Country Garden Salve  ½ oz $3.49  2 oz $11.49
Made with herbs and flowers gathered from my garden, augmented with essential oils, this salve is beneficial for bumps, bruises, and scrapes.  It helps encourage circulation, reducing swelling and promotes more rapid healing.  Use to support mostly healed cuts, scars, and burns, but never on open wounds.

Deodorant  2 ½ oz tube $14.99
This deodorant is made with quality essential oils and just a bit of starch to help dry up perspiration, but doesn’t leave a residue.  Contains no aluminum or baking soda.

Soap Average weight of bars is 8.2 oz, they measure approximately 2 ½ x 3 x 1 ½ inches.  $7.49

These soaps are made with tallow and lard harvested from animals raised on our farm.  Enriched with good quality oils and dairy butter, this soap is incredibly gentle to the skin.  Additions to soaps such as oatmeal, specific essential oils, cosmetic clay, and citrus rind specialize each variety of soap.  They can be used for the whole body, face to feet.
