How to Use
How We Use Scraps
- When we travel I cut the slivers into pieces and pack them in a muslin bag. They keep my suitcase smelling wonderful and they are great for 1 to 2 time use in the bath or shower.
- Everyone can bring their own favorites. No more mushy soap in a messy travel soap bar box and no more worries about liquids in your carry-on luggage!
- Cut the slivers into pieces and carry them in your purse or car. Now you can wash your hands with our natural soap instead of the chemical-laden detergents in public restrooms.
- Wet the slivers and stick one to another. Allow them to dry and you will create a big bar of soap or shampoo!
- Make a drawer sachet or car deodorizer from scented soaps. Cut slivers into small pieces and place in a muslin bag or tied cotton cloth.
- Cut into pieces to make single-use soaps for camping or backpacking.
- Place scraps in a soap sack to scrub with in the tub or shower!

FAQs
What is a Scrap Sack Sale?
Many years ago our customers asked if we could sell our soap scrap - end pieces sliced off during our soap cutting process. So, at various times of the year, we package up our scraps. These sales usually take place two or three times per year.
What is a Scrap Sack?
A Scrap Sack includes ONE POUND of soap or shampoo odds and ends, packaged in a recyclable kraft paper bag made from recycled paper.
Your scrap bag will contain slivers, chunks, cracked bars, and odd sized end pieces. Scents and colors may be faded and they may not be pretty, but you will get all the goodness of our all-natural handmade soap at a real savings!
What is a Mystery Scrap Sack?
- Mystery Scrap Sacks contain only one type of Soap or Shampoo
- While each individual sack is labeled with the single type of soap or shampoo included, there is no way to choose one soap or another when ordering -- it is a mystery until you receive it.
- We do not have a list of the Mystery Soap Sacks available and cannot provide this information via phone or email.
- They have a discounted price that is less than the normal Scrap Sack price.

Aren't all handmade natural soaps the same? . . .
The answer is NO!
Saying a soap is "handmade" says nothing about quality of the ingredients or the knowledge and skill of the soapmaker!
Chagrin Valley is not just another soap and skincare company. We are committed to healthy skin, healthy people and a healthy planet.
We are a USDA Certified Organic Company specializing in luxurious, organic, handmade natural soaps and shampoo bars rich in natural glycerin for healthier skin and hair.
It's all about the ingredients! Inspired by our love of nature, we use organic herbs, seeds, flowers, vegetables, fragrant spices, fruits, pure essential oils and purifying clays for their exceptional skincare benefits and to provide natural color, aromatherapy, texture, or gentle exfoliation. Nothing artificial, nothing synthetic, no GMO’s, just natural wholesome ingredients.
Chagrin Valley's Natural Soap & Shampoo Bars Are...
- all natural
- made with USDA Certified Organic ingredients
- handcrafted in small batches using the old-fashioned Cold Process Method
- made with sustainable and fair trade ingredients
- certified cruelty-free

- free of alcohol and petroleum products
- free of synthetic additives
- free of GMOs
- biodegradable
- mild and nourishing
- rich in natural glycerin
- magnificent long-lasting lather
- cured for 8 to 10 weeks
Our soap making process uses only natural and organic ingredients. Why add artificial ingredients to a handmade product?
The Short Answer
Yes And No!
Although handmade natural soaps usually get better with age, we recommend using our soaps within 12 months of purchase. Our scented soaps should be used within 3 months after removing them from the box.
Although the soaps will not be "spoiled" after that time, you may notice some changes as natural soap ages.
- some natural colors may fade over time
- the scents from pure natural essential oil scents will fade over time
The changes in color and scent happen even more quickly in our sample size bars.
These small natural soap bars have a much greater surface area to volume ratio which allows essential oils to evaporate from the surface more quickly. However, the scent may still be there when you lather up.
I have found some ancient bars hiding in my closet that years old. The scents were gone, but the lather was incredible!
The Long Answer
For a more detailed discussion please read our blog, "The Shelf Life, Color & Scent of an All Natural Soap."
How You Can Help Prolong Shelf-Life
- Natural soaps need to breathe. Exposure to air promotes hardening of your soap and contributes to longer-lasting quality. Soap should be left unwrapped in their boxes or wrapped with breathable materials. Tight wrappers cause humid conditions by preventing evaporation of moisture.
- Our soaps are packaged in breathable, recyclable, sustainable packaging! Keep your natural handmade soaps in a dry, cool place away from sunlight, excessive heat and humidity.
- Our scented soaps, like Lavender Rosemary, can be placed in a muslin bag or wrapped in a piece of cloth and put in your linen closet or dresser drawer to give a delightful fragrance to your linens and clothes while waiting to be used.

Testimonials
Wow! You guys have done it again. What a great idea to sell the soap scrap sacks. Now I can take your fantastic soaps with me on trips, to the office, or anywhere and not worry about losing the whole bar. The "slivers" of soap in the sack are just the right size for a weekend trip. I also experimented and found that if you take two or three of the slivers and squeeze them together in the shower, they stick together and "voila", a big bar of soap. Thanx for your continuing innovations, great products and fantastic customer service. Dirk, Washington
