Ordering information

We're officially open for business! Please feel free to take a look at our products, and if you see anything you like simply visit our Etsy shop via the link to the right.  If ou have questions, or need to arrange local pick-up, please email us at BaileysBasics@gmail.com.

If you're in the Harrisonburg or Rockingham County areas of Virginia, you can pick up your products at our house to save shipping charges. If you're someone we see on a regular basis, we'll be glad to deliver to you!

Outside of our immediate area, delivery will be via United States Postal Service, and we'll try to ship in Priority Flat Rate envelope or box whenever possible. You'll be amazed at what all can fit in that box! Sometimes, First Class is cheaper -- either way we'll pick the cheapest, fastest option for you.  Shipping upgrades are always possible if you need something faster.  We try to ship packages the day after you order, if possible.

Thanks for your interest!

Testing Has Begun!

Hello from Baileys Basics! It's been a crazy-busy week around here, but things are just about ready for our first items to be offered.

I spent most of the week making a batch or two of all the homemade goodies that we plan to offer in our store. I had solicited friends and family to be my guinea pigs, and four people agreed to test our products to make sure that we're not the only people in the world who love them. By yesterday evening, I had sample packs ready. They included laundry soap, scouring powder, skin salve, lip balm, and toothpaste. I'm hoping for good responses, and for some suggestions on ways to make our products even better. I did have lots of fun learning to shrink-wrap lip balms, even though I burnt my fingertips occasionally!

Check back soon as products should be hitting our virtual "shelves" soon!
