Chandler’s Soaps was started by Marie Chandler Gale over a decade ago. In 1998, in her family ranch in southwest Oregon, she prepared her first batch of handmade soap in a canning pot in her family kitchen. She made further readings and studies on the craft until she developed a commercially viable formulation. Her first commercial productions were sold in local craft shows, to family, friends and other customers by word of mouth. In 1999, she developed creams, lotions, body oils and other products that made used of the same ingredients. In 2004, Chandler’s Soap opened a brick and mortar store in Myrtle Point, Oregon, as their first commercial outlet carrying the body care and bath products which they manufactures, and other bath accessories. Today, with her soap-making facility in her ranch, she accepts international orders thru the internet.
