Bramble Berry has humble beginnings. Soapmaking has been a creative outlet for CEO and Founder Anne-Marie since she was 16. After an unsuccessful career as a correctional officer, she decided to turn that outlet into a business. Our first warehouse was only 400 square feet, and we sold melt and pour soap, five fragrances, and a few molds. We now sell thousands of products from our warehouse in Bellingham, WA.
As with many small businesses, our creative journey was by no means smooth. We had our fair share of debt, stress, and personal setbacks. What keeps us going is hard work, optimism, resilience, and passion for all things handmade. Our story is constantly evolving – the most recent chapter is our rebrand. In 2017, we updated our logo and changed our name from Bramble Berry Soapmaking Supplies to Bramble Berry Handcraft Provisions. In the future, we want to expand our line to include supplies for other DIY projects, like cheesemaking or home decor. Handcraft Provisions allows that flexibility as we continue to grow and change.
Throughout our journey, our goal has always been the same – we want to use what we’ve learned to help people. Whether you’re making soap for fun or running a small business, we promise to be your partner on your creative journey.
Make sure to share your creative journey using the tag #BrambleOn. We can’t wait to see all the things you accomplish. If you want to keep up with Anne-Marie’s personal journey, follow @ComeMakeWithMe on Twitter and Instagram.
You deserve to be successful, you’ve worked hard. Well done!
Thanks for your sweet comment Sal.
Hi, I love your products, and the prices are the cheapest that I’ve found. Your response to questions/problems is very quick and insightful. My biggest problem is with the timing of my orders and the delivery. It takes several days (up to 5) to package my order, and then it’s ground shipping of several more days. It’s usually a week and a half before I receive my order. But I DO LOVE your products!
Sorry about the wait Peggy. We’re behind right now because of an increase in orders, but our warehouse team is working hard to get orders out the door. Thank you for your comment.
I can’tell wait to make my first order.
Thanks so much for your order Catherine. If you have any product or recipe questions, let us know. We’re happy to help.
Beautiful story, beautiful share and it was nice to see inside your store. You are indeed in your element.
Thank you so much Cheryl, it means a lot to us.
