How we started

In 2021, with the free time brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic, we decided to build a business. This was something we could do together as siblings, not only to generate a little money, but to give Simon a sense of purpose and dignity. We learned cold process soap making techniques together, and Simon experimented with the swirl design in the soap. Each bar as a unique swirl by Simon.

Simon's Soapbox is a testament to the joyful possibilities in working together.
