We're off to the Festive Gift Fair!

After a crazy few months of manufacture, we're heading off to the Festive Gift Fair this week.  One of our customers summed it up perfectly, when she described the Soapworks as looking like Santa's Workshop!  We have a huge selection of pretty gift hampers ready, so everything is looking and smelling very festive.

We've warned our Stourbridge shop customers that we'll be operating reduced opening hours in the coming week, while we're at the NEC (the days we'll be closed are shown on the right of this page).  There's also a Christmas Shopping Event at the Ruskin Glass Centre this coming weekend (Saturday 24th -Sunday 25th November 2012) featuring locally produced arts and crafts.  Thanks to much appreciated family support our workshop will be open as usual over the weekend, but we'll be unable to offer our usual hamper wrapping and re-fill service on these days.

During this very busy time, our websites will continue to accept orders, but we'll be unable to process them until after we return.  We'll then deal with orders in the date order they arrived, and will update the website regularly as items sell out.   We're expecting a big order backlog when we return, so in advance we'd like to thank our website customers for their patience.   We'll endeavour to process the backlog of orders as quickly as we can!
