Ugh, I am SO annoyed. I picked the pumpkin fragrance with the least amount of vanilla. The product description said it turned "light tan." My adorable pumpkin soaps turned DARK BROWN. 😡 My oatmeal honey soap looks amazing though...

I made a batch of Oatmeal and honey- with oatmilk of course. Some with ground oatmeal and some without. Tried decorating the top with bubble wrap- will let you know how that turns out. Also made a black and white swirl batch with Somali Soul fragrance. I like it but it's not what I was...

As part of my restocking effort, yesterday I made pumpkin and leaf soap. I carved the pumpkin stems from an old piece of green soap and wedged it into the molds. Not sure how that will work. I also made pine tar soap cause my dad loves it. More soap today!

My mom said I have the best smelling guest bedroom she's ever stayed in. Yes Joe Burrow is an outstanding QB and a class act. I'm sure I'll be missing him in a month or so...

I'm cleaning up my soap curing room (aka guest bedroom) as oldest son commandeered it this summer. He's at college now, so i have my space back. I'm also pulling out fragrance oils I plan to use this week since I plan on making several batches.

Gorgeous! Coconut lime? Really? 🤣

We are an Auburn family (mostly). My husband is an AU fan, and so are my kids. I'm an LSU fan, but Auburn is my 2nd favorite team... My soapy thing for today is realizing I'm perilously low on soap. I was already low when my my mom asked for 8 bars for her quilt club meeting, and they...

Yes, @Zany has been very generous with knowledge and recipes- Thank you!

Thanks for the tip- I'll check that out!

I also use @Obsidian 's recipe. (Thank you very much!) I do not have picky skin, and I use them sooner in the summer 10 weeks, but 6 month cure in the winter when my skin is a bit drier. Lovely soap.

I just poured a batch of eucalyptus mint (from nurture soap- thank you for the recommendations) I used the last bit of coconut oil and almost all of the Savage garden mica. Gotta go shopping...

Thanks. I bought the 4 Oz bottle from nurture. I'm trying it this week

More soap! There's a deer tallow soap in there. It's the round mauve one- the fo accelerated like crazy, but it smells great. The lavender solid one is Zany's Shea butter recipe. The two on the top right are a soap I added some coffee grounds to. I was going to stir it till it was solid...

^^apparently not. I'm out of room and STILL bought more fragrance oils. And molds. 🙄 My soapy thing for today was slicing and unmolding a beautiful loaf of soap. Part with coffee grounds and part without. Scented with Blue Mist by WSP. Mmm. Will post pics tomorrow

So I did actually need Castor oil. I did not need more fragrance oil. I can't seem to help myself though...

Sale at WSP!

I like to kayak too, but it's almost too hot for that down here. Kayaking is much more pleasant in the spring and fall here!

Last night I saw an appeal on Facebook from a teacher at one of the local schools. She works in one of the poorer schools and is setting up a cabinet for the children to take personal hygiene products home with them if they need them. One of the products needed was soap. Not only did I...

Thanks for the update. Interesting trial! I have been disappointed in the way some if my natural colorants have faded. Even turmeric fades over time.
