About Us

Hi friends and family,

I hope you're doing well! 

My name is Jess, and I'm a mama to two incredible humans. I am also a soap maker at heart, and the founder behind Rabbit Soaps.

Alongside my kids and my wonderful fiancé Josh, I’m lucky to call beautiful Vancouver Island home.

My soap-making journey began back in 2014, when my sister Amy brought me to a workshop while I was six months pregnant. I knew I couldn’t jump in fully at the time, but something about it stayed with me, and the seed was planted.

Fast forward to 2023. Amy gently told me that I "needed to get a hobby," as I was driving her nuts. I tried crocheting, knitting, painting, just about every craft under the sun, but nothing quite clicked. That’s when I found my way back to soap making.

This time, it stuck.

What started as curiosity quickly became something I genuinely love. Soap making gives me a place to be creative, experiment, learn, and make something useful and beautiful with my own two hands. Every batch is still made by me, in small batches, with a lot of thought (and usually a little bit of chaos).

Rabbit Soaps has grown more than I ever expected when I picked soap making back up in 2023. What began as a hobby at my sister’s insistence has become markets, new collections, plenty of experimenting, and a little business that I’m incredibly proud of.

It’s still very much a family affair. My kids have grown up alongside it, and you’ll occasionally find Josh in the workshop helping me stamp soaps, which still technically makes him my only employee. He takes the position very seriously.

More than anything, I’m grateful that people choose to bring something I’ve made into their homes. Every order, market visit, kind message and person who comes back for another bar allows me to keep doing something I truly love.

Thank you for being here and for supporting this little business of mine. 🤍

With love,

Jessica Rabbit
