"My Hobby Went Crazy!"

Saturday May 13, 2006
“It started out as a hobby,” says Marie Bache. “My hobby went crazy.” How many of us have and still do feel that way!? (Raising my hand.) Marie got started making soap after a trip to see her daughter. Now she makes about 100 bars a day! Her soaps are very naturally made - her motto is "Don’t put anything on your skin if you can’t eat it." It's a great story that I'm sure most of us can relate to. Read more about Marie... Click on the "comments" link below...and tell us how and when your soap and/or candle making hobby went CRAZY!

I really enjoyed the article about Marie Bache. It is so great that the whole family is some how involved in her projects. I myself would enjoy learning more about her “HOBBY”. I really love the idea of using all natural products. I am 56 yrs. old and have problems with arthritis in my hands so it is difficult for me to work out side of my home. I have been pondering on what to do to help make myself a living. Her story has inspired me to jump forward and give the soap idea a try. I only wish I knew more about her technology in making these products. Good luck Marie and thank you for your inspirations. A gal from WI.

I’ve been looking and haven’t been able to find a website for Marie. If anyone else finds it, do chime in!
