Their direct support helps keep this channel afloat in the ever unstable world of CZcams ad revenue. These videos will always be disclosed, of course, and I appreciate everyone's kind support for these partnerships. Royalty Soaps also participates in commission or discount affiliations, like Amazon or RewardStyle, as these opportunities become available, like Amazon and RewardStyle and while the money we make with these links isn't much, every little bit counts and once again, we really appreciate your support!

    Hi Katie. I'm not sure how or why your videos were first recommended to me, but I am very happy I found you. I love your purity, energy, and goodwill. I have been watching your videos for over a year now and have started making my own soap and body products. I'm now getting into candles and pottery (all for fun). I hope one day I can make something nice enough to send to you. Blessings upon you and your family. Please know that your presence on CZcams is much appreciated.

      I know how I found it ;) Saf. But I stayed for Katie's sweet helpfulness. Though this soap I'd have been off once I heard "coffee" (migraine trigger) if not for the small biz tips. As a crafter who had to move away from my established customer base, it's been hard to get going here. ESP. since my art/craft is hard to ship and is sold for less than the cost of materials on sites like Etsy.... and I'm always ready to learn from others who have made their crafting full time financially viable.

  • @ellavate2658

    Love the small business advice girl! Also love your attitude towards community vs competition. I used to have a very small handmade jewlery biz a couple years ago and the people in my local area selling handmade items were so cut throat and cliquey about the whole thing.. it made me lose interest in pursuing any further because I much more aligned with your mentality! I've been thinking about starting a soap biz since quitting the jewlery, and your advice and bubbly personality really encourages me to go after the dream! Thanks so much Katie 🎃🎀

I have my business license and I post pictures on IG but I'm too afraid to try and sell. I just give them away as gifts. I will one day 😀. Until then I'll keep creating and watching brave and smart creators like you. Have a great weekend!

      here in Italy we have very different eating habits, plus we're kinda picky with our coffee (aka we generally think starbucks style coffees are crap 😅), so pumpkins are not the first choice for treats or desserts (we mainly use them in soups, risotti and roast side dishes), but I personally love a good pumpkin cheesecake 🤤🤤🤤

    • @mwater_moon2865
      @mwater_moon2865 Před 2 lety +1

      TD and black will both clump badly if it's not a liquid when it goes in, and powders can "poof" when trying to mix them in if the sides aren't high enough. but mixing it into yourself to an oil can make a mess and be wasteful esp if you're afraid of putting the oil ratios off.
      Think Kraft mac and cheese powder vs. Velveeta liquid.

As for apples, there’s this little ice cream shop in the town I went to college in (shout out to Ultimate Ice Cream in Asheville, NC!) that used to do a seasonal flavor that was sweet cream apple butter swirl and it was to die for! It was an Italian sweet cream ice cream base with a swirl of locally made apple butter running through it and it was fantastic! A runner up for apple stuff are spiced apple cider slushees. They’re hard to find, but they’re amazing! Literally just spiced fresh pressed apple cider run through a slushee machine.

    Oooh, one of my favorite things about fall is that after carving and scraping out pumpkins, my mom toasts the seeds (which I live off of for the next week) then makes pumpkin halva. It’s pretty simple to make (just cook the pumpkin and add brown sugar, maybe some honey, cardamom, maybe cinnamon, and maybe some other spices) but it’s SO GOOD. Warm and toasty and almost floral in its sweetness. Highly recommend

    Honestly you could talk about literally anything you're interested in and I'd still watch it. I have no desire to start a business, much less a soap business, but I still love hearing what you have to say because you're super passionate and interesting to listen to.
    I actually don't like any sort of warm fruit because I think the texture is super gross, so no pie or warm pumpkins for me! I do like key lime pie though because it's cold and if you're in Florida it's usually warm enough in October to still eat it. When the weather starts getting cold I like soups and hot chocolate!

    Omg yes! More business tips! Honestly I'd love a video dedicated to tips on starting a company and how you did it! Things to watch out for, things to be prepared for, things to not worry too much about and so on! I've been making soap for about a year now and have been seriously considering starting a company, I just have no idea how to go about it! (P.s. you're the one who inspired me to make soap in the first place and I feel like I've really found my thing in life, so I'm eternally grateful to you (and your team) for helping me figure that out ❤❤❤❤)

    I know my absolutely MUST WATCH RIGHT NOW videos are if you have Lily or anymore testing out craft or candle kits, that type of stuff. Love it !!!! Also, maybe more on making the embeds or how you drew up the design for each soap you're about to show us? more like behind-the-scenes maybe? Washing all those awful dishes you always talk about, esp. the BIIIIIIGGGGG CONTAINNNYYYY 😄👍

    I adore making pumpkin pie during this time of year, makes me feel so happy. I like baking in general, though I've a sensitivity to apples I still help make it, even if i can't eat things made with it much, it makes my day to bake things that people love and appreciate.

    Thank you Katie, I LOVE the business tips. I totally agree with everything you said. The only thing that you said that I agree with but don't currently do is where you said not to make things you don't like or use scents you don't like. I am not a fan of FO's myself, I like EO's, yet for the first two years of soap making, I used only EO's. My business didn't start to explode until I added FO's to my line. I wish I could do as well using EO's only, I LOVE all things botanical soaps, though I do enjoy making the fancy soaps that so many people seem to love. "Crunchy" is just more my personal thing. You are a HUGE inspiration to me. Thank you for taking the time to do these videos. Even my children (and hubby sometimes too!) enjoy watching with me! It makes it extra special knowing you were home schooled and from a large family. We have eight children that we homeschool.

And I'm starting my own creative business and LOVE to glean business tips and practices from my favorites.

    You know that chocolate pudding dessert that has oreos in it and is super popular? While I was experimenting with dessert and wanted to make a Thanksgiving version! So I did exactly that the bottom is a layer of vanilla oreos then it has a layer of vanilla pudding then on top of that its a pudding/pumpkin mix that I came up with and then top it off with some cool wipe and crusted up vanilla oreos 🥰💕 It's seriously so good!!! 💕

    I love apple pie 💕 And since I’m from a country where eating pumpkin isn’t really a thing, I have no idea what it tastes like.
    I’m from Denmark, I’m 36 years old and this year was the first time ever I’ve tasted a Pumpkin Spice Latté. And that was thanks to Starbucks. Didn’t like it much, but it was a bit better when it cooled.
