    What soapy thing have you done today?

    Mine agreed to give up the kitchen table just so I could transition to "work-from-home" for my day job but my crafty stuff puts him over the top 😬 (also with justification). I tried to pull him over to dark side by getting him his own set of oil paints, brushes, canvases, a couple easels, sketch...

    Kind of a weird question about moulds

    Have you seen the mold Market?

    That too! Usually he doesn't bother me much, it's my mess that bothers him 🙄 Some of my stuff has to sit out to dry and it might be a few days until I get back to it so he sits there staring at it asking how long until I'm done with it (sigh)

    Ooo! Craft room envy! I can't wait to have a place for all of my crafty stuff ~ where I can work and not bother anyone (my husband) 🥰

    See ~ I think it was just a matter of sharing a preference for the pink and purple camo ~ it didn't occur to me that people were seeing it differently! 🤣 I see 2 shades of green, a light tan (natural?), a brown, and a black ~ looks like normal camo colors to me!

    I can understand personal preference, however, they have proven that with the clays it is absolutely possible to remineralize your teeth, basically replace worn enamel. Of course, in order to do that, you also have to give up every type of food and/or drink that is damaging to tooth enamel (like...

    Interesting ~ I have never tried using a different oil ~ I used coconut for the health benefits (of course), but I never ventured beyond that specific ingredient 🤔🤔

    Kind of a weird question about moulds

    If someone were to do that, they would make a few bucks for sure! Everyone wants that shape! For soap and lotion bars!

    What soapy thing have you done today?

    My recipe has become a bit of a blend of other people's ideas + trial and error + taste and preference = end result. My research lead me to Primal Organics Dirty Mouth tooth powder, that I did purchase a trial size and used it to see how I liked it. I wasn't thrilled with the dry powder...

    What soapy thing have you done today?

    Ooo! There's an idea @KimLynn doing a girl's camo soap in girlie camo colors! I have a friend who makes purses and she did a custom pink camo purse for a girl who said she wanted it "over the top pink camo" 😆 Girls love camo too!

    What soapy thing have you done today?

    The funny thing is, I've wondered that too. But for the most part I use a washcloth and once I lather the washcloth I don't feel anything I add to the soap. The 2 things that I could have felt would have been fine loose leaf green tea (out of tea bags) and whole lavender buds soaked in an oil &...

    Are y'all talking about regular turmeric powder, like from the spice rack ~ or do you need something special for soap?

    What soapy thing have you done today?

    It takes getting used to, that's for sure ~ for me, I make mine with coconut oil and a blend of the charcoal, clays and a smidge of baking soda, plus a few drops of EOs, so it was the coconut oil I had to get used to. It was also a switch due to "need" over "want to", as I was having reactions...

    Considering a new loaf mold - opinions please?

    I have been on the fence about my loaf molds because I do love making the larger bars by cutting the sizes I want, but that liner can be a pain. More so when my recipes were mostly olive oil, but even with a recipe that sets up more firmly, the corners can get squished when I turn out the loaf...

    What soapy thing have you done today?

    I'm not experienced with sugar scrubs or working with stearic acid but when I experimented with whipped body creams I noticed there is a sweet spot when timing your mixture in the fridge ~ it only needs to partially firm up, not fully. I had a couple bowls get too firm and had to let them sit...
