As a lot of you know, I used to work in aviation in my old life. Also my Dad is a private pilot and also is into RC aircraft. I'm saying all this to explain how I came up with the name for my soap making business. In aviation there is a maneuver that all pilots know. My Dad showed it to me one time with his RC plane. It was a graceful maneuver. It's called " Chandelle" I also liked the ideal that with the Chandelle you gained altitude and changed directions. I felt that that was what I was doing when I took the plunge and quit the job that I had for over 21 years and made this move to Wisconsin.
When I had bad days at my old job, I would threaten that since my job was such a goat rope that I might as well run away and go live on a goat farm. Well a few years went by and I started to think that goats might not be a bad thing. That's when I started to look into what you could do with goats. But how to tie goats and aviation together? Well I had an ideal and I played with it in my mind.
A month or so ago I was talking to my sister Patty (PAKART) and told her my ideal of what I wanted as my logo. She totally got was I had in mind. This is how I saw my past life with aviation and my new life with goats. She is going to tweak it a little bit, do some shading. But this it what my ideal looks like on paper.

I like that name, chandelle. It's has special meaning and history...cool.
ReplyDeleteChandelle Farm? Chandelle Goats? Chandelle Goat soaps? Too bad the word "goat" isn't as pretty as the word "chandelle". Maybe you could go with the latin word and have Chandelle Caprine soap?
ReplyDeleteFlying goats, that's original. Like the name and how you tied things together.
ReplyDeleteI like PAK Art's suggestion of Chandelle Caprine. I was thinking of the french word for goat (chèvre) but Caprine sounds better.
