Why A Dragonfly????

A little history of Springbrook Soap Co., I have been making natural soap and body products for about 10 years now, many hours have been spent perfecting recipes and working on the art of soy and palm wax candles and of course labels.

Here's back ground of why the Dragonfly is on our label.

Yes, it goes back to those simple days, as a child, living in Wisconsin on the Namekegan River. I was about 10 years old, when I was laying on the old rickety dock by the river, with an old cast iron pot and some bread crumbs catching minnows so my sister and I could fish. We noticed a really ugly bug crawl up the post on the dock and just stick there, well the curious 2 we were, we sat and watched, we could see this thing emerging from the nasty looking bug, first a wing then another and out popped this absolutely beautiful green iridescent dragonfly, it sat there for awhile, as if it were telling us to look, I think at that moment, I received one of the greatest gifts from the universe, (a miracle?), that one dragonfly taught me to look for the beauty in everything. I've been told many times to stop "looking through my rose colored glasses". Well, I'm glad I wear those glasses, the world looks so beautiful. Everybody should have a pair.

About 3 years ago I met Wayne Dyer, one of my favorite authors, I explained the Dragonfly story to him and asked "what do you think it means", his reply was "oh, a miracle". I must admit I expected something more profound from him but, I get it now.

I toyed with the idea of a dragonfly on our labels for years, I recieved a phone call from a customer and she asked if I did natural Baby products, one of the Doctors in her practice were having a baby and she really wanted it to be special, I do a lot of custom labeling for my customers. My thoughts immediately went back to Wayne Dyer, a miracle, a baby, a dragon Fly. I enjoyed doing that basket above anything else I have ever done.

About a year after I did that basket, I found out the paper I used for my labels was no longer available, so the universe took care of the label dilemma for me. No doubt what it was going to be. The infamous Dragonfly. It's amazing how when you think you have something original and along comes someone, to take your ideas change them a bit and call it their own. A metamorphosis, in life I might add, lessons we learn from sharing our ideas with others, and making changes in our lives to accommodate a welcome from the universe.

Ecrater....

Ecrater is huge community of online stores, they have over 1 million product listings. That's interesting in it's self, imagine that under one roof, huge....Feed back only comes from paypal or google check out, unlike Ebay where everything gets a feed back rating. When sales come from check, money order, pick up, or your credit card company, there is no way the public can see that. Sales are soring there, with new stores opening everyday. Alot of x-ebay stores are there. In order to promote your online store one must do your own advertising. Anyway hope this answers your question about feedback. Anybody interested in opening a store, it's sooooo simple, anybody can do it. I love it there.

Grandma's Chunky Crumbles

WOW....Again a great response...Thank you all for your purchases. I am truly greatful for your business. I've had several inquiries where the Chunky Crumbles can be purchased. They are listed on our ecrater site right now. The shipping is included, which averages them out to about the same price as Ebay when you add in shipping. And the great part is you don't have to wait for the end of an auction for you to be pay for them and They can usually be shipped within 24 hours, providing they are purchased Monday - Friday. Since Ecrater is my online store, I would appreciate any of you who want them, to go to my ecrater site. We try to put as much on Ebay as possible, when supplies are low they go to our ecrater first. Ecrater works pretty much the same as ebay, everything is a "buy it now", you can pay with paypal and with that you still get buyer protection.
Here's the website, just click on the address and your are there. WWW.SPRINGBROOKSOAPCO.ECRATER.COM
Again Thank you so Much!!!
