Vineyard Soap Maker Opens Second Oak Bluffs Location
Already established on Circuit Avenue, Simply Soaps is expanding to a kiosk in the Dockside Marketplace opening this Friday.
Beth Serusa's soapmaking business is doing so well that she's expanding to a second Oak Bluffs location to sell her handmade, Island-themed soaps, lotioons and fragrances.
Serusa began making her own soaps back in 1999 and started selling them at the Artisans Festival in 2010 before opening her Simply Soaps shop on Circuit Avenue.
Friday, Serusa's colorful creations in a wide variety of fragrances, with names like Lamberts Cove Lavender and Hidden Hills Honeysuckle, will also be available at a new Simply Soaps kiosk in the Dockside Marketplace.
