All Good Things Soap- 318 W. Main


What a beautiful store! The owners of this establishment get it! The products are all hand-made soaps, lotions, and a variety of natural kitchen and bath items. Sonia and Larry Folkner opened up this business a few months ago. They attract customers in their store with a friendly, but tasteful exterior facade (bubbles on the awnings) and a bubble machine hidden where no one can see it. The bubbles cascade the sidewalk and bring the customers to the store. How innovative! This month, Sonia has displayed an antique tractor in the window along with garden soaps and products. Ties in nicely with our Fourth Friday shopping theme- "Oh Madison" Celebrating Preservation Month! Tonight I will take a picture of this window display. Anyway, I bought 5 bars of soap here the other day. In fact, all my soap comes from this store now. Large bars are available to cut the amount that you would like as well- makes a great gift to visitors who stop by and stay overnight and you need a small bar of soap for them. I usually purchase the: Balmy Baby Bar (great for your hair), Honey and Almond, Lavender, Lemongrass. But this time, I tried the Gardener's Scrub. Wow- it has poppy seeds in it and makes for a great exfoliate. If you are in the area- you must stop in this store. I guarantee you will walk away with something. These are everyday products that we all need.
