Lumps of Coal
Tradition! It wouldn't be Christmas without lumps of coal soap to fill stockings appropriately...here at Little Cabin Soaps we've been making coal soaps for years. As the season comes around I question if I should continue making them, and inevitably someone reaches out asking if they'll be available. It's also THEIR tradition to give these every year...the thought of that not happening? I kick it into gear and create lumps of coal. They vary from season to season, but the idea that these are a must have for families around the nation warms my heart. From my heart to yours, here is the line up for this year.
