Wonder Butter™ Beginnings - Part 1

The construction of our new Bath and Body kitchen is coming along nicely. In projects like this, though, something always comes along to slow things down, but we are still progressing and I can hardly wait for it to be finished! I look forward to getting all of my great Wonder Butter™products back on the shelves and in our online stores.

While we are constructing our new kitchen, I am going to take the opportunity to tell the story of the beginning of  Wonder Butter™ . . . . .  why I created this wonderful, natural skin loving butter and how Wonder Butter™ grew into an entire, very large, product line. Here we go . . . . .



. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
It was early in the year of 2003. After more than 20 years of marriage, I had just gone through a very long, extremely emotional, super high stress, exhausting beyond words divorce. The emotional strain, extreme lack of sleep, and off the charts stress took a huge tole on my skin. People tend to forget that our skin is our largest organ and all of these factors have a huge effect on it. We really should be much kinder to our skin throughout all of our life, not wait until we start seeing the tell tale signs.

I began noticing that small lines were starting to form at the outer corners of my eyes, across my cheeks, forehead, and here and there all around my face. I also noticed that my skin on my face had become very course and rough. This horrified me! I was barely 40, starting life over as a single mom, and I suddenly felt like I looked like an old lady!  So what did I do?

The next time I was in town running errands, I purchased my first jar of . . . . anti-wrinkle cream! I could hardly wait to get home with that new little jar of  "magic". Once home, I sat right down with my new skin cream that I had high hopes for, carefully read the instructions, eagerly opened the jar and applied it all over my face, exactly as the instructions stated. I was excited and had such high expectations for that little jar of skin cream.



In just a matter of minutes my face began to feel strange . . . . . . then my face began to burn . . . . the burning grew and grew . . . . . then hard pain set into my face. I ran to look in the mirror and my face was so red and swollen it looked like it would begin bleeding at any moment! Did I apply it incorrectly? What did I do wrong?

I read everything on the jar again, over and over and over ..... no, I had done everything correctly. Over the next week, I tried that anti-wrinkle cream a couple of more times, each time getting the same, horrific results, except that it was worse each and every time. I started to research to see what the problem might be. Everything I came up with seemed to suggest that the reaction I was getting was fairly common among anti-wrinkle creams. COMMON?!?!?!? No way! That just couldn't be right. Turned out, as I understood from my research, that many of the commercial anti-wrinkle creams on the market work by sloughing off, burning off, etc, the old, the damaged and the dead skin cells on your skin/face to get down to the fresh, new skin underneath. Oh, my . . . . there just had to be a better way. And so, my journey to find that better way began.

Stay tuned for "Part 2" of Wonder Butter™ Beginnings 

Thanks for stopping in!

Another Wonder Butter™ name thief! This time in Louisiana!

Does it ever stop?! When you come up with a great product name and place it on a great product that you have so painstakingly created, are people going to forever be trying to steal your product concept and product name?!  It gets old, but I will continue to fight the battle to protect my Wonder Butter™ product name.

I, Anna M. Watts, am the Original and ONLY creator of Wonder Butter™ natural bath, body and beauty products and more. I have spent years in the research and development of my product line., and I am proud of how my products have helped so many people have more comfortable daily lives, naturally.

I have trademarked and copyrighted the names Wonder Butter™ and Anna's Wonder Butter™. These names are my property, are solely for my business use, and I have not given my permission to anyone else to use them. Yet once again, someone else has stolen my Wonder Butter™ product name and concept combo and are attempting to pass it off as their own! These people are Kevin Holden, Georgia Holden and Jade Holden (business based at: 36510 Court Ave., Prairieville, LA, 70769, 805-443-7273 - strange, that is a California number) and they  DO NOT have permission to use my Wonder Butter™ name, nor product concept, and this will be dealt with! Their Wonder Butter product is an imposter and is in no way associated with me nor my high quality Wonder Butter™ product line. I have asked them to cease using my Wonder Butter™ product name and they have refused. They have refused to communicate with me and are also blocking me from every place I attempt communication with them. None of this is acceptable!

I have poured my heart, sole and energies into creating and building my Wonder Butter™ products over a period of well over a decade. I will not sit by and allow anyone to take any part of it. And I will not let anyone tarnish my Wonder Butter™ name with an inferior imposter/copycat product. I am very proud of the top quality Wonder Butter™ family of products I have created with its countless product members. I look forward to continuing the growth of my great customer base and the growth of my already large Wonder Butter™ product line.

This, this, this, this, and this  ARE NOT my Wonder Butter™. I am not associated with these people in any way, shape or form. None of them (Georgia Holden, Kevin Holden, Jade Holden, Alison Holden, Just Three LLC, anyone connected to them, Hola Nola Foods, nor anyone else) have permission to use my product concept, formulations, Wonder Butter™ name, nor anything else associated with my Wonder Butter™ products. MY Wonder Butter™ products are the ORIGINAL, AUTHENTIC,  and ONLY Wonder Butter™ products on the market. Any other bath, body, beauty, skin care, and the like, products carrying the Wonder Butter / Wonder Butter™ name are imposters, copy cats, frauds, etc. . I would greatly appreciate it if you, my valued readers and customers, would let me know if you ever see one of these look-alike, imposter Wonder Butter / Wonder Butter™ products being sold anywhere, in any state.  I take great pride it the fact that my Wonder Butter™ line carries a very positive reputation. I do not want that reputation marred by anyone!

Thank you so much! And may My, Anna's Wonder Butter™ products bring your skin and body much joy and happiness!

Kitchen Update and our Newest Wonder Butter™ Product

Hello, Everybody! We do hope that life has been treating you well! I wanted to make sure I took a moment to check in and give a bit of an update on our progress here.

Work is continuing on the new bath and body kitchen we are building to improve production and efficiency for making our great Wonder Butter™ products. Progress was slowed way down when the scorching heat hit and dragged on for so long, but the temperatures have finally dropped a bit and we are back on it hard and heavy. It is still really hot, but not nearly so bad. I can hardly wait to get the kitchen finished! It will make it so much easier to get ALL of my Wonder Butter™ products back into production and back out there for you.

Through all of the moving we continued to make a few of our Wonder Butter™ products on request by our regular customers, but it just wasn't possible to keep every product in our Wonder Butter™ line made up. As some of you know, we have over 20 products, now in our Wonder Butter™ line! I can hardly wait to get them all back into production. Me, personally, I have especially been missing my Lotion Bars.

No matter how busy I seem to get, though, the creativity in me just never stops. I am 54 and really beginning to feel the effects of aging starting on my skin. From being outside most of the day around the farm, my face, arms, hands..... everything exposed, has really started feeling weathered. All of this inspired me to create yet another member of our Wonder Butter™ family.

All of our Wonder Butter™ products are fantastic! But I decided it was time to make one specifically for my weathered skin... one that was light enough that I could apply it several times a day if I wanted to, yet would also work great if you only applied it once a day if you were going to be indoors all day.  After countless hours, days, weeks of yet more research and development, I finally came up with my newest formula for the latest member of our Wonder Butter™ product line. We are now in the testing stages and will update and let you know how it is going and when it will be ready for sale. So far.... we are both absolutely loving it! My poison ivy covered body has been especially finding it soothing.

Thanks for reading and have a Happy Day! ! ! !

Wonder Butter™ Family and a Brand New Kitchen

Hello, Everybody! We want to thank everyone that has stuck with us through all of our big, long move. As some of you know, I had to move my farm, it was a very long, hairy, mind boggling adventure, and during the process, most of my Wonder Butter™ making supplies got packed up.

I continued to make my Wonder Butter™ products on a much smaller scale for anyone that wanted to purchase them, but I had to scale down a bit until we finished the move. I want to give an extra big THANK YOU to my regular customers that never missed placing their regular order... THANK YOU! ! !

We are now getting stuff unpacked and set back up to once again make my fantastic, entire line of Wonder Butter™ bath and body products, full scale. Not only are we setting back up, but we are clearing off land space and building a separate bath and body kitchen! We will then have one building all to itself where we can make all of my fun and fabulous products that you have grown to love and trust. This will be better in so many ways, including making production much more fast and efficient, which will result in getting your products to you much more quickly.

As we get back into full production, we will also have some great surprises ahead! During all of this lengthy move, I often had to take sit down breaks. Well, as many of you know, I can't just sit down and do nothing. So what did I do during some of my rest breaks? I continued to research and create NEW Wonder Butter™ formulas! Yes, there will be several fantastic new products joining the already large Wonder Butter™ family! We are really excited about these. We are sure you will be to.

So stay tuned, watch for the opening of our new kitchen and the launch of our new Wonder Butter™ products to our already big and beautiful Wonder Butter™ family.
Have a fantastic day and see you shortly! ! ! ! !

ANOTHER BATTLE!

  Once again, I am battling to protect my Wonder Butter™ name, as someone thinks they can use it for a product they created almost identical to one of mine. This gets really old. People need to do a very deep research before they chose their product name.
Stay Tuned.   More details tonight.

Update:  Fortunately.... this was able to be resolved with minimal conflict. All is well again with the original and authentic Wonder Butter™ family!
