Every small business begins with a dream, and Country Bathworks is no exception.
What started as a career change from pet transport to curiosity about handcrafted bath products, quickly grew into something much larger—a passion for creating everyday products that bring a little handmade comfort into daily life.
Living in rural Missouri has taught me to appreciate simple things. The changing seasons, the beauty of nature, and the importance of community needs all inspire the products I create. Many of my scents are inspired by memories, places, and experiences that feel familiar and comforting.
When I first began making soap, I was fascinated by the process. Turning oils, lye, colorants, and fragrances into beautiful bars felt equal parts science and art. Every batch taught me something new, and every success encouraged me to keep learning.
As friends and family began trying the products, their encouragement helped transform a possible hobby into a business. Before long, Country Bathworks was born.
Today, each product is still made with the same care and attention that inspired those first batches. Whether it’s a rustic country scent, a fruity summer fragrance, or a moisturizing lotion heart, every item is created with the goal of helping customers enjoy a small moment of self-care.
One of the greatest blessings of owning a small business is meeting customers face-to-face at local markets and events. Hearing stories, receiving feedback, and building relationships with customers has become one of the most rewarding parts of this journey.
Country Bathworks isn’t just about soap. It’s about slowing down, appreciating the simple things, and creating basic everyday products that help people feel good in their own skin.
Thank you for being part of this adventure. Whether you’ve purchased one bar or many, your support means more than you know.
