The Soap & Paper Factory chooses only the freshest, most natural ingredients, using organic and local ones whenever possible and producing products almost entirely on site.

In their rustic brick studio, Lisa and Shannon start every product from scratch, hand-mixing and hand-pouring their soaps in small tents and leaving them to cool in on rows of racks. In the next room, Beth sketches designs for paper and stationary, wraps products by hand, and ties individual ribbons and tags. Their creations are green from start to finish-the Italian glass that holds Soap & Paper candles can be reused for drinking or to hold a small bouquet, while the recycled boxes that hold paper and bath products can be recycled again as pretty containers for odds and ends.
