If you’ve made it to our blog, you probably already know Prairie Soy Candles is run by a mother-daughter team, Kyla Huffaker and Kara Kelso. We’ve had a blast working together, attending craft shows and picking out new scents we think our customers would like (or have suggested!).

Since we’ve worked so well together for the last several years, I decided (this is Kara by the way!), why not start something just as fun with my own daughter? So Jillian and I have done just that. Better yet, we’ve created a product line we think goes absolutely perfect with the candles. And that product would be….handmade soaps!

Jillian, age 7, now works with mom making handpoured scented soaps. She’s helped in the design of her site, Soap by Jillian, and picked out all her mold and scents herself.  She has plans to add more molds and scents as the money comes in. Quite the little entrepreneur she is! I wonder where she gets it.

So if you happen to see us at a craft show, be sure to check out Jillian’s soap along with our candles. We have some plans to “match up scents” in the near future, and already have Pink Sugar in both soap and candles.
