We have been hard at work on our Handcrafted Soapmaker’s Guild annual conference display for the last few months. First came the visioning and sketching process. We knew we couldn’t bring all of our products so we carefully planned out what we wanted to bring and then designed the displays around the products we wanted to showcase. It was hard figuring out what products made the cut (because, of course, they’re all our favorites).
Before we finalized the plans, we made the entire display as a mini model out of foam core boards. Our ratio was 1/2″ to 1 foot. We have the cutest little dollhouse display (that is, if you’re into staging retail stores instead of playing house).
Then, deep breath, it was time to cut. Our soap mold company has a large CNC machine, which we use to cut out the soap dies. It also is useful for making custom displays (or elaborate doors, or large signs). We designed and produced the entire display in-house, with our awesome team.
We will be open during normal vendor hours and can’t wait to meet everyone! We have our best selling fragrance oils, our latest limited editions and examples of our recent soaps so you can see how different colors work in cold process soap. We also brought some of our most popular non-soap recipes from the blog for you to see in person (bath bomb cupcakes, whipped butters).
Kat and I are so excited to teach classes and talk soap for three days straight. Amber and Courtney will be manning the Bramble Berry booth. They’ve both made soap for years and have been on the Bramble Berry team. We’ll be GIVING AWAY our sample goodies at the end of the week so make sure you stop by the booth to enter to win the samples displayed at the booth. We have 15 total display set prizes (and one of the prize packages includes our awesome new Pink Stick Blender!).

Great looking display. I’m sure if you ever wanted to sell your display, there’d be tons of us clamouring for it.
The display looks fantastic!! I am envious! Live in Iowa, maybe next yr will be the year to visit Washington!?! There will definately be alit of soaping and such going in after the conference, such a motivator!!!
We would love for you to come visit, and don’t forget, we always have our Soap Week Intensive here in our very own Bellingham, Washington!

The display turned out beautifully! Wish I were going. :}
Very nice! So fun to get to see pictures since I can’t be there in person. Have fun Team Brambleberry and all you soapers who get to attend the conference! I look forward to hearing all about it 🙂
OOOOOHHHH these look so nice. well done.
I am envious of everyone who will be there. Have a great time.
I sssoooo wish that I lived in the great state of Washington right now. Instead I live way up in Saskatchewan Canada so am unable to make it to the conference and the Soap Queen booth.
🙁
Hope everyone at Team Bramble Berry has a fantastic time at the conference. Wish I could be there!

We wish you could make it this year too! Hope to see you next year! 🙂

It was SO great to meet you yesterday! =)
Love the design – like Kelly Ann this gives me some great ideas for my new shop (opening soon, yay!). Won’t be at the conference unfortunately as I am in the UK right now, but will definitely be following it online!
I can’t wait to see your photos of your new shop! I’m so excited for you.
Love your Designs! What a Team you have! I can’t go as I live far away in Florida, but maybe next year!!
We are so lucky – our team is awesome!
I love your display and booth. It’s stunning and love the pink stick blender.
The little pink stick blender has it’s own little holder in the display as well. It is so cute!
Oh boy! Love that we’ll be able to smell an assortment of your popular fragrances. I’ll definitely be stopping by to take a sniff and enter the giveaway! 🙂
Yay! We can’t wait to talk soap and fragrances with you =)
Love this!
Gives me some new ideas for my store!
Great Job Team Brambleberry!
Thanks Kelly Ann. Love the enthusiasm! =)
