Holiday Shopping with Ruth & John's

Ruth and John like to give handmade gifts to our family, especially things which can be consumed.  That’s how we got into making soap in the first place.  That first year everyone in the family got several bars of our home-made soap.  It was so fun to make that we kept at it long after the holidays, and we soon began selling it.  It was a short step from making soap to making lotions, lip balms, bath salts, misters, massage oil, and all the other products we offer.  We make every product with same care that went into those initial batches made for the family.

Want a great handmade gift for your loved ones?  Put together your own gift basket with a selection of Ruth and John’s great products.  How about a set of soaps and lotions in the same scent?  Or an assortment of lip balms and lotion bars to help them get through the winter?  Check out our dollar shelf, with bath fizzies, foot fizzies, shower fizzies, bath salts, and facial masks.  Want something unique?  We have soap foamers, massage oil, and misters which you can scent yourself from our wide selection of fragrance and essential oils.  Need something extra special?  Talk to Ruth about a special order made up to your specifications.  

We will be at the SIU Holiday Craft Sale Thursday through Saturday, December 5-7 at the SIU Student Center.  Come by and see what we can do to make your holiday shopping easier.  Can’t wait till then?  Stop by Town Square Market in Carbondale.
