Happy Friday the 13th! 🐈‍⬛😱

I think these days are actually lucky, and I’d love to celebrate this last Friday the 13th until November with a SALE!

Any of the pictured soaps will be 4 for $13 through this weekend (ends midnight Monday 3/16) with code ‘THIRTEEN’! Locals in the Twin Cities can also pick up/drop off for FREE! (Just let me know via message or on your Etsy order and I’ll refund shipping)

Head to MavisAndPolly.etsy.com this weekend (link in bio) and choose your 4 bars for only $13.

HELP ME MAKE ROOM FOR NEW SOAPS! Happy shopping and have a lucky Friday 😉!

FRIENDS! 💕 I’m back, and really I never went away!

I paused my Etsy last winter for a bit, but reopened this summer, but I haven’t been able to pour more attention into new soaps and the shop until now.

Whether you order directly or through Etsy, I’m happy to offer the rest of my soaps for $5 or less to clear the way for new creations. As always, happy to ship beyond the Minneapolis metro, or hand-off or ship within the metro. Just let me know!

I’m hoping to create some holiday themed soaps by the 24th but we will see with supplies like oils and fragrances a bit hard to come by quickly.

Thank you for all your support over the years – and here’s to many more 🧼💟

👉 Vote: would you like to see a gift wrap and/or gift delivery option (shipped to your giftee with a nice note from you)?

✨ FREE SHIPPING FOR THE FIRST WEEK OF MARCH! Automatic free shipping at checkout – no code required. ✨

Friends! I'd like to introduce a new soap to the shop: Spring Skies! The bar is cheery sky blue topped with jasmine flowers and biodegradable glitters. The scent is beautiful and earthy with notes of cardamom and cedar. It's a warm but clean scent that'll make you LOVE washing your hands 🩵

Introducing as well a new craft: hand-beaded earrings made by yours truly! When I was a kid I had a bead loom and many, MANY seed beads – I was inspired by a pair of earrings I got from the International Bazaar at the State Fair, and thought it would be fun to come up with my own color combinations and designs. I plan on trying other earring designs and colorways, and maybe even branching out to necklaces and bracelets!

Pick up the new soap and a pair of handmade earrings (with free shipping!) at Etsy here: https://mavisandpolly.etsy.com

Introducing OOPS Soaps! Sometimes your vision for a project just doesn't work out, as evidenced by this selection. They may be ugly, but they smell and work just as well as our featured bars of soap!

These bars are over 50% off for cosmetic weirdness, so if you don't mind the look, these still smell and work great. Get a quality soap for half price and maybe get a laugh when you go to use it 😂

Get them 3 for $10 here: https://etsy.me/4bDQIme

💘 Valentine's Day is coming up fast! 💘

Need an amazing gift that literally almost anyone would be happy to get? (Seriously - WHO wouldn't want handmade soap?!) We got you. The two pinkest, cutest soaps at M&P are the aptly named Valentine soap (top), along with the 🆕 Lingonberry Spice winter edition soap.

Valentine is a little more earthy and musky with sandalwood notes, while Lingonberry has that fruity sweetness while still being fresh and not overpowering. Seriously, these two are amazing 💕

Same-day shipping via Etsy or local MPLS/STP pickup is available! Just send me a message for pickup. Thanks as always for the support! mavisandpolly.etsy.com

Happy holidays to you! 🎄✨

It's crunch time to get those last stocking stuffers and gifts – but we have you covered! Soaps are literally the perfect size for a stocking 😉

𝗧𝗢 𝗚𝗘𝗧 𝗬𝗢𝗨𝗥 𝗦𝗢𝗔𝗣𝗦 𝗕𝗘𝗙𝗢𝗥𝗘 𝟭𝟮/𝟮𝟱:
• Please order 𝗨𝗡𝗧𝗜𝗟 𝟳𝗮𝗺 𝟭𝟮/𝟭𝟵! This is short notice, but I'll be out of town starting that day. I will ship the day of your order. (Sorry, it's been a really weird 3 months)
• 𝗙𝗢𝗥 𝗟𝗢𝗖𝗔𝗟 (𝗧𝘄𝗶𝗻 𝗖𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗲𝘀) 𝗣𝗜𝗖𝗞𝗨𝗣: just let me know and we will figure out a meeting point or dropoff point.
• 𝗧𝗼 𝗼𝗿𝗱𝗲𝗿: check out all the available soaps in these images, and head to mavisandpolly.etsy.com or shoot an email ([email protected]) with your order (I know some folks like to avoid Etsy, and that's fine! I can quote you a price with shipping if necessary).
• 𝗗𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝘀𝗵𝗮𝗺𝗽𝗼𝗼/𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗱𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗲𝗿 𝗯𝗮𝗿𝘀? Lots of shampoo, and just two conditioners. I can make more conditioners after the holiday.

Once again a big ol' THANK YOU to everyone who has ordered and gifted any of my soaps. It's been a weird journey the past year, especially, with going from jobless to freelance to fulltime, and thank you for being so patient as new soaps are a little more rare these days. Hoping to fill the shop with new, special soaps in 2024 🎉

HELLO! It’s has been a long and crazy time since I last made soaps and updated the shop. Life got in the way, but I’m working to be back in track!

A fresh Lavender Lemonade batch is back and ready to go home to you! Just in time for your favorite teacher, housewarming, Thanksgiving host, or stocking stuffer. Smells as delicious as always with the same cute swirly pattern.

Keep your eyes out for a new confetti soap this week, too! 😉

Head to mavisandpolly.etsy.com, email [email protected], or shoot me a message or text 💜💛

💘 𝑻𝒉𝒆 𝑽𝒂𝒍𝒆𝒏𝒕𝒊𝒏𝒆 𝑺𝒐𝒂𝒑 𝑰𝑺 𝑯𝑬𝑹𝑬! 💕 mavisandpolly.etsy.com

By the skin of my teeth 😂, these bars have had a few weeks to cure and are ready for use! These pink swirly bars are scented with Amberwood and Peony fragrance, which is a beautiful floral yet woodsy and earthy scent. I love it!

This bar is great for Valentine's Day or for your pal or loved one that simply just loves the color pink and this gorgeous scent. They are a more traditional rectangular shape rather than the taller bars I've created recently. More surface area for the beautiful rose petals and pink bio-glitter!

How to get yours:

𝗟𝗢𝗖𝗔𝗟𝗦:: I am happy to hand off at your location of choice until the 14th! Just let me know in the comments on Etsy or in your message.

𝗦𝗛𝗜𝗣𝗣𝗜𝗡𝗚:: I cannot guarantee these will get to their destination by the 14th, but I can offer gift wrapping for $2 if you'd like to send directly to your valentine (or extreme lover of the color pink).

𝐍𝐎𝐓𝐄: 𝐋𝐈𝐌𝐈𝐓 𝐎𝐅 𝟑 𝐏𝐄𝐑 𝐎𝐑𝐃𝐄𝐑. These are small batches of soap, so I have to limit how many one person can order. Sorry!

THANK YOU ALL!!

Extending the $5/bar sale until I feel like it 😂 At least another week: mavisandpolly.etsy.com

Here’s a peek at the special Valentine soap I recently made! There’s a double batch of these, so plenty to go around ❤️ Available in a couple weeks 💕

Have a great rest of your Sunday – more new stuff coming soon.

(FYI this bar and the other still need to be cleaned up and planed, so they won’t be so sloppy 😉)
