My friend Erin made me a new Jayne hat. I love it. I’m not sure I’ll ever be brave enough to actually wear it in public anywhere, but I’m certainly bold enough to wear it at home while I make supper and then take a nerdy selfie and plaster it all over the interwebs ;) Browncoats unite!

Soap Surveys

Take a Short Survey?

Take a Short Survey?

I’ve prepared a couple of surveys related to my soap making business, and would very much appreciate your input on both of them. Both are short (10 questions), anonymous, and collect no personal information from respondents. The first survey asks general questions about your use of and preferences about artisan/luxury soaps in general, and the second, is a customer feedback survey for people who have purchased products from me and their thoughts on them (please only complete this survey if you have already used any of my products). Thanks in advance for your participation if you do opt to take either of these surveys!
