About Us



Who I Am

Crafting bath and body products from home, Granny Hen Soap Company is based in rural southern Illinois. My name is Sindy Hansen and I founded this company out of a vision to provide options for more natural, simple ingredient products that still offer fun, artistic designs and scents. 

While battling an incurable liver disease  years ago, I learned about how chemicals in our foods and body products can potentially affect our liver and body. I began seeking out products that were more naturally based.  Now I make my own!  (by the way, be a hero, be an organ donor!)

I handcraft my products in small batches with attention to high quality ingredients and formulations that give our skin and our senses what we need. I continue to learn more and experiment with crafting other products as well.

 


My Inspiration

My inspiration? This lady pictured is my Granny HENrietta. She was a powerfully quiet and content woman who was inspirational simply by the way she lived her life.  She was a woman of strong faith with a passion for living out her life in a way that was pleasing to God. She made a lot her her things from scratch - whether food, clothes, cleaning products, or whatever. She would keep a bottle of olive oil on her bathroom shelf and would tell us kids how good it was for your skin. She had lots of little tips about eating and using healthy, natural foods for various things.  The company is named to honor her memory and inspirational life.
