I missed out on this and it sounds really good. If someone is not giving theirs any love, I'd love to buy it off of you or trade for it.

So, at some point in the new year, hopefully not too far out and if there aren't too many other projects overwhelming him, hawns and Ryan @ Tallow + Steel may do a collaboration Blackberry Blossom Bay soap and I'm thinking that if there's enough interest and given that he'd be mixing a batch of BBB scent for the soap there is an outside chance that hawns may mix up more BBB aftershave. That is pure speculation on my part and none of this may actually come to pass. But I hope it does.

It looks like my schedule will be clearing up around February or so. I've heard from three people so far who were interested in another run (although one of them is a guy who is only interested when things aren't available, then never buys them when they actually become available again...I think he just likes to message me to complain), so closer to the time I'll run an interest check to see if there is sufficient interest to make ordering the scent worthwhile.

That sounds great hawns . Can I suggest that you consider using the same/similar mechanism that Ryan @ Tallow + Steel uses for the special collab soaps like YRP? He put up an order page on his site and promoted it across different forums and anybody who wanted it could order/pay for it for a specific time period then he closes the ordering and knows how much to make. Seems more streamlined than the way we did BBB. Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed the project and didn't mind banging the drum but my drum beat only reaches so far. Ryan's approach seems more convenient, all pre-paid and you know exactly how much to make. Until after you ship it and that guy contacts you to complain that he can't get anyBig Grin

As a rule, I personally don't like to have people pay for products that don't yet exist. It just makes me too nervous in case something happens. I'll just put up a page on my website this time to order if there is enough interest, but I promoted this across several different channels last time (Facebook groups, my social media channels, and Reddit) without any any response. So it wasn't for a lack of trying.
