A brief history...
I started my business in Central Indiana making handcrafted soaps in 2006 with a sustainable future. I never dreamed that what started out as a hobby and part-time enterprise would turn into a full-time career. Now, seven years later, my business, Herbal Art LLC, is going strong and offering more than just soap.

Meet the Business Owner: Brian P.
When Brian Paffen stood in his laundry room in North Carolina making homemade soaps in 2004, he never dreamed that what started out as a hobby and part-time enterprise would turn into a full-time career. Now, six years later, his business, Herbal Art, is going strong and offering more than just soap. Passionate about health and wellness, Paffen says, "natural soaps are better for the complexion and skin tone". Paffen decided he could improve upon the soaps that were already available, so after some research and development, he began making his own. Four years ago, he relocated his business to Indiana and simultaneously reformulated his soaps to be more compatible with the area's hard water.
"In hard water, soaps often don't lather up, keep their fragrance or even hold up well," explains Paffen. Through trial and error, he eventually found a formula that works. He also discovered a local need for other natural products, such as skincare lotions and candles. Everything is made by hand.
