Maison de Savon started in a kitchen in Howland Ohio with a 12 year old girl named Gillian. Gillian’s coaxed her mother (who hates to be in the kitchen by the way) to conjure up some handmade bath & body product. Surprise, Surprise Gillian and her mother loved making those products and started to hand them out to friends and family. They were a hit, and they decided to make it a small business, thus Maison de Savon (House of Soap) was born. (BTW, this is the quick version of these amazing girls story, if you want to learn more, stop in at any Maison de Savon, they would love to share it with you.)
