The first box that I opened (a glossy black box with a white bow)
contained a pair of "<span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-size: small;">Beaded Earrings of
Swarovski Crystals Cubes in Amethyst and

couldn't believe how many complements I got. This is what they look

<span style="color: #0b5394;">Hi everyone! I want to introduce you to Milena and Cl</span><span style="color: #0b5394;">àudia from Barcelona!! They are the owners of heartmadesoaps on Etsy!!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #0b5394;"> </span>We are Milena and Clàudia, from Barcelona. We both knew each other 3 years ago at the university, studying graphic design. We love crafts and everything handmade.<br />

Our imagination goes so fast that we have to do something with it, so we are always creating.
We always loved soaps, so one day we decided to try to make our self soaps and find ideas and concepts differents so our products where special.<br />
<br />

<br />
Here you can see most of our creations, inspired on places around the world, food or just special events and days. We are now currently working on a new collection called "Don't eat me" because the products we are creating are so yummy that we can't stop repeating ourselves that they are not real food!<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
What we most love of our little soap business is that we can create all the graphic around each product. Don't forget we are designers so we love designing the labels, packaging, making pictures, sale banners, etc...
We are glad with our shop because it's a way to express our creativity without a client, we are working on our own business just following our thoughts and likes.<br />

We sell handmade soaps, made from vegan glycerin bases and with some oils, color and scents. We also sell other bath and beauty products, like bath salts. Our bath salts are perfect for relax!
We just started working on weekend nights. When we had some products we started selling them on Etsy, and right now we have some shops interested on selling our products in Barcelona.<br />
