The SOAP Shop

A hidden gem in St. James, NY. Nestled within, the KAT + MOUSE PHOTOGRAPHY studio resides:

The SOAP Shop on Lake Ave.

448 Lake Ave. St. James, NY

With a decade-long expertise in soap-making, Katrina's journey began as a personal solution to combat allergic reactions triggered by commercially produced soaps. Her dedication to crafting soap with natural ingredients led to the vibrant array of colors sourced from coffees, teas, clays, herbs, and unique elements like wines, beers, and bourbons.

Experience the artistry firsthand by dropping in or enrolling in one of our workshops! Discover the secrets behind the exquisite range of handmade soaps and delve into the world of natural ingredients with us.
