Decatur's own Emilie Sennebogen started selling her Mama Bath + Body line online five years ago, but the Internet didn't give her the kind customer interaction she craved. Wish granted! On October 3rd from 10 to 6, Sennebogen will host a grand opening for Mama's flagship store on East College Ave. In addition to her own line of all-natural soy candles, body lotions, sugar scrubs and artisan soaps. she will feature complimentary mar-tea-nis by local tea maker Just Add Honey and sweets from the neighboring Cookie Studio. The first 25 customers will get swag bags loaded with Mama samples and goodies. And Sennebogen will be giving product-making demonstrations throughout the day in the wide-open workshop area. 

Sennebogen is excited to share her passion for making her products with customers. "People always ask 'how do you make lotion' or say 'I'd love to see how soap is made,'" she says.

Now she can answer those questions via daily demonstrations in her studio kitchen, and in the soap and candle making classes she plans to offer at the shop.

Check out the Mama Bath + Body Grand Opening, Oct. 3, 10am to 6pm, 743D East College Ave., 404.377.7800 or loveyourmama.com.
