Please please please make the three kings soap this year

[@MadiLachut]

So if you’re always working ahead... what months soaps are you working on right now?

[@OrigamiMarie]

If you get a live Christmas tree, make sure to keep it watered. They soak up a truly unreasonable and unexpected amount of water, and they need every drop of it, otherwise they dry up, turn brown, and turn into an ugly fire hazard. There's no way to know that it's getting sad about being low on water by looking at it -- by the time it's looking brown, it is too late! Water every day, maybe twice. And be prepared for every creature in the house to drink from the tree's water, and half of the creatures to try to climb it.

[@vickieparker5413]

Katie I love your videos they are great! I am blind and you inspire me. I can imagine your soaps just buy the wonderful description you provide. I always know what you are doing because your videos are so verbal -really -descriptive. I just started making melt and pour soap. Maybe one day, I Will step up and make cold process soap.. Thank you and keep making such interesting soap.

Maybe next year you could do a southern hemisphere Christmas soap (although I don't know how 'christmassy' that would look...). It's summer for Christmas in Australia and we usually have BBQ's, go to the beach... some of our Santa pictures have him in shorts and a hawaiian shirt riding dolphins or kangaroos, not reindeer!

[@ebee69361]

It bums me out so many people hate on “early Christmas” in shops. Many people can’t afford to buy all their Christmas decor or presents only in December and financially need to spread out their purchases. I personally really appreciate being able to buy fresh Christmas lights or start getting presents as early as possible to help our budget!

[@MothCreature13]

My complaint comes with the decor coming in the middle of October

[@alyssamejia3365]

elisa beeson me to girl!!

[@savisavvy_]

Well said!

[@evelynecstasy]

But if you financially can’t afford decorations in the few weeks before December or in the weeks leading up to Christmas, why buy them anyway? You don’t need decorations it’s just a time to celebrate with family.

[@IISheireenII]

1. do you need decorations so much that you buy them even if you can't afford them?! 2. how about putting each month the money you would use for this aside, just what you would spend anyway, to use it all at once in december or late november i don't mind getting prepared for chistmas in november but I often see christmas decorations in september... how can it feel like a special time of the year if it is there for 3-4 month? same with all the easterbunnies popping up right after christmas

[@Juhjou]

About the tree question : we do neither! Ist's kinda common in my area to buy a tree with roots. In the main time of the year it sits on the balcony or in the garden and is brought inside in December. Of course it's also decorated and stuff like a fresh cut but at the end of the year one doesn't have to throw it away. Actually it ist really beneficial for the ECO system!

[@shannoncamara9619]

katie!! my boyfriend just bought me the pumpkin pecan waffles soap as part of my christmas present!!! i'm so excited!

[@mrscalifdreamer]

No one in my family had a Christmas village! When I got married I always wanted one but they’re so expensive for a family of 6 kids. I saw the white plaster craft ones so I started buying the pieces and painting them myself. Each year I add pieces. I even bought a train! Lol. Now my children are in their 30’s and are saying that when I die, they’re going to have to split the village into 6 smaller villages because they all want it! I have working lights and all! Your soap is the bomb!!! It’s putting me in the christmassy mood!

[@roundthewldin3clicks]

I am not a big fan of the high tops but this is my fav. I love the way it looks like fresh sow glistening in the morning light.

I used to watch him when i was like 7-8 she should do a bob ross soap isk how but i would buy

[@kitzcat]

Oh yes! I love this soap. It's beautiful and I'll bet it smells wonderful. As for the tree question, I've had both fake and real trees growing up. We started with a fake tree we had for years and it finally got so icky looking that my Mom decided we would get a real tree. Dad would complain every year that Mom and I had to get a huge tree. Mom finally had enough of his complaining, so she made him go get the tree one year. He and I went to the tree lot and picked out a pretty tree. He was so proud. He just knew it would be a perfect fit for the spot we usually put it in. We got it home and in the stand and in the house and we had to move furniture to accommodate it because it was the biggest tree we'd ever had, lol. I was the one who always did most of the set up, lights, and decorations. Now that my folks are gone, I just can't bring myself to put up a tree anymore. :'-(

[@SherioCheers]

my mom buys a frasier fir every year. Fresh trees are so beautiful.

[@EssenceRose3]

You are such a delight. My 11 year old daughter and I enjoy watching your videos together. We were baking the other day, and as I was scraping out the bowl, we both looked at each other and said "scrapey scrapey the containy!" then giggled. Thank you for brightening our days.

You are kind for mentioning we are not obligated to buy your soap. I support because you're very talented and I too am a small business owner. Keep up the great work.

[@victoriablackwood8138]

My husband is a priest. When he was in the seminary he made friends with another young guy, and the two of them are kinda tall, big dudes. They used to say, ‘You know the Mormon Tabernacle Choir? Well, we’re the Moron Block and Tackle choir!’ LOL Lovely soap!

[@NaomiDollxoxo]

How is your husband a priest? Am I missing something?

[@TheBMSpro]

We always got a fresh tree, because fake trees were too expensive, but then one year during spring cleanup we saw a fake tree box on the garbage pile of a store that said free. So my mom shoved it in the car and said “hey, if it’s garbage we can just put it out with our garbage.” We got home and set it up and it was beautiful!! The only thing wrong with it was that one limb was broken so it hung lower and made a gap in the tree, so we just put that side in the back. That was 7 years ago and we still have it and use it to this day and it doesn’t make a mess of needles 😁 (Also, maybe you could do a winter Northern Lights soap? I’ve seen them here in Canada and they’re beautiful.)

[@CrystalLeeQuibell]

I love everything about this soap! The trees are so adorable!!! The sprinkly sparkly snow peaks - awesome!!!

[@eurydiceapologist]

Awwww this is such a beautiful and graceful design. I love that it's not overly Christmas-y and is more generally Winter-y. My family does Christmas and Hanukkah (yay bi-cultural family) but a lot of other families don't celebrate Christmas. Happy holiday season, y'all!!!

[@rex198]

Oh my gosh! We do Christmas villages! It's one of our traditions. As a kid, I loved moving around the little people and laying down snow and pathways. We'd have it covering an entire table!

[@tiffanypetzoldt3141]

It’s crazy but this is legit my favorite soap you’ve ever made. I can’t get over the trees, just perfect!

[@As.Meow.Deus2080]

This is one of my favorite holiday soaps that you've ever made! Here I am three years later scrolling through your videos to find this specific one to watch on Christmas, just because it was something I needed to do. Thank you for all of your content!!

[@ilonamollema6467]

What a stunning soap! Really love the trees on the snow glistening hills! My entire family has a Christmas village in our house. It started when we were kids and my father bought every year another piece, like a ice skating ring😉 And yes, in my family we all have a fake Christmas tree, but we put the lights in by hand, string after string.

[@careyrose5614]

Those colors are giving me awesome Slytherin vibes and I love it!!

Savi savvy very sad but 95 is a pretty good run. He had a great life and left his legacy.

[@leahgroess5361]

At my parents house we have my great-grandmother's fake tree. Part of the fun is that it's one of the early fake trees so it's so very clearly fake, but it's definitely old enough to be considered an heirloom at this point, so the tradition stands! It's also super short so when we jam-pack it with all of our ornaments it just looks crazy and I love it. We've had a real tree a few times, but the fake one is just so much better. We don't have a tree in my apartment because of lack of room and cat havoc potential. My mom has a Fontanini collection which is like a Nativity scene that's branched out into the whole village. She's got shepherds and angels and bakers and little weaver girls or whatever you might expect to find in a small village around that time. They all have names and stories that come with them, so it's pretty cute.

[@pLanetstarBerry]

When I was a kid my folks used to get a real tree. We made a tradition of building a bonfire out of the tree on New Year's Eve. Nowadays my folks have a plastic one, while my husband and I have a holiday Storm Trooper! We both love Star Wars and we're too lazy to take it down so we just switch up the decorations to match the holidays.

[@limalicious]

I have a couple different Christmas villages, not including my Snowbabies collection. But this soap. I need one. It made me tear up because it reminds me of decorations my Grandma and mom and aunt used to make.

[@sonicksymphony8162]

We buy fresh ones because we used to get them at our local scout hall. It always made a mess and left your arms itchy from carrying it to and from the car but it made our house smell AMAZING. One year we even kept some spare fronds in the unusable fireplace in the living room to keep it smelling good until Easter :)

[@EbonRaven]

My family had one of the little christmas villages. It had a cotton batting throw, then beautiful painted wood and metal houses, benches, people, animals, etc. And lots of trees. We even had a mirror and ice skaters! I was devastated when I found out my mother gave it away a few years ago.

[@NicoleHoltActress]

It's so glittery, it almost looks translucent! I love the way the snow turned out. And the trees are super cute.

[@soapsforlove4168]

We used to get real trees but now we have one that we keep up all the time. It's a pencil tree and we love it. The soap is A-MAZING!! YES, the gift you gave your mom is adorable. I think she liked it.

[@liehere]

My aunt makes this huge xmas village with the trail every year! She also gets this 20 ft fresh tree and we decorate it as a family a few day before xmas! I'm 28 and still await anxiously every year for xmas so I get to see it all 😍

this is beautiful! a lovely displace of snowy mountain tops! it reminds me of a sunny day & the sun shining on the snow! Nope can't afford a real tree!

[@kridder1018]

I have a Christmas village! Two actually. One is the Christmas Story village that my mother in law purchased us, and another is these little ceramic houses that I paint every year and add to it. We do fresh trees. I grew up with plastic, and it was sorta because of allergies and sorta because my mom hates real pine trees. For the past 14 years however (since we bought our house) my hubby and I have gone real. Despite I'm allergic to it, I wouldn't miss that fresh pine smell for the world. lol I just make my husband and daughter decorate the tree while I get the rest of the house!

[@h.mcafee1457]

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas~ *whistles*

[@sjfdillon]

We used to always buy a live balled tree in Tennessee the first weekend of December when we were down there for a Christmas party in a cave (yes you read that right). We'd haul it back in our Airstream trailer to Indiana and decorate it. When Christmas was over dad and I would plant the tree on our property. I'm 34 now and those trees are now taller than the 2 story hosue itself. We no longer live there but still try to buy a fresh cut tree. Last year I myself bought a small, sad balled tree, planted him myself and named him Bruce after the Incredible Hulk (because he's green). Bruce is doing well and will be getting a friend hopefully this weekend. I'm thinking Clint, for Hawkeye. Yes they will all be named after Avengers. These will become habitat for my birds and bats and ground critters as the grow after we had a lot of very old trees come down the past few years. Gotta be a good earth steward!

[@lt7827]

The drop swirls on this soap are AMAZING! So agree with you about the green, it was so beautiful! Can’t wait to pick up this soap next month!

[@greengoblinboy585]

[@iLitAfuseiCantStop]

We always go out into the woods by our house (or one of my dads other pieces of property) & chop down our own . Ah, the joys of living in Coastal Maine🎄❄️ 😊

[@2angelmommy]

We always used to have a fake tree but two years ago we found a Christmas tree lot that let you walk through their land and pick your tree and cut it down and then you could go for hot chocolate and roast marshmallows, make a whole experience of it. It was the last Christmas we spent with our daughter, she passed away at the age of 6 last October. She had so much fun playing in the snow and she talked about finding our tree for months after, so we will always have a real tree and go back to that lot to get our tree.

[@FarmScapeGoods]

I LOVE that fragrance!!! We use it every year. It reminds me of Cherry Dr Pepper!

[@hilarym74]

I love the real Christmas trees simply because of the smell its so nostalgic for me ❤🎄

[@hdb80]

I think this is my favorites soap you've ever done. I love the mica on top and glitter and all that jazz and the tree is adorable. Makes me want to be in the snowy mountains somewhere with cocoa.

[@bethanyolson6974]

A pine soap! It's gorgeous! I'm totally going to get this one I will fight everyone for it! Also, on family Christmas traditions, every year my family watches the Albert Finney Scrooge on Christmas Eve and it is the only version I love. I always recommend it because I think it's just superb and it's a musical and I have yet to meet someone who doesn't adore that version.

[@AmberLF]

I LOVE IT. Okay, honestly, winter is one of those seasons that I have a love/hate relationship with. I tend be very downtrodden during winter but then it's things like this and the idea of snow and beautiful evergreen trees that make it a little better T-T

YAY IM SO HAPPY YOU POSTED

[@erisisthename]

Katie! When I was younger, over the period of a season my Mom bought a Christmas village piece by piece. It wasn’t your ordinary village either. It was the town of Bethlehem. It was complete with people, camels, sheep, trees, earthen houses, pottery, plants, even little details like the wood that stuck out of the sides that they used back then to support the roof internally. And of course, it had a manger scene, complete with an angel and a star. It was the biggest nativity set you could possibly imagine. It was one of my favorite pieces of Christmas not only because it was perfect, but because it was a so it yourself painted plaster craft! At the time, it came from a place called Franks Nursery and Crafts. I loved it so very much. Sadly, when my family moved, we never saw it again. But, that means it got to bless someone else along the way.... anyway. Happy Thanksgiving, Merry Christmas, and Happy Holidays!

[@toffee2201]

Just Kibby This really isn't a Christmas type soap however. It's winter, I've never experienced winter nor do I celebrate Christmas, but it's fun to see all this cute soaps. Also it gets her more revenue, since more people do celebrate or enjoy Christmas/Winter. It would be really out of place if she made an out of theme soap all of a sudden. She does try to make not really specifically Christmas soaps though, like her hot chocolate soaps.
