    What soapy thing have you done today?

    I have a lavender FO (Lavender Vanilla from WSP) that smells awful while it's curing ( I also add goat's milk) and then by the time it's ready it just smells like the FO. The first time I made it using CP (I had been using that FO in HP soap) I was so confused and disappointed because it's one...

    What soapy thing have you done today?

    I put some bath gift sets together and got them listed on my Etsy shop site. They are in three scents: Lavender Woods & Honey, Eucalyptus Tea, and Madagascar Vanilla. They come with with two soaps (goat's milk & oatmeal), two fizzy bath truffles, and a bath loofah. It's fun putting these...

    Are these Glycerin Rivers ?

    I notice a lot of the times right after I cut a batch of soap it can have a weird smell (like a raw soap batter funky smell). It usually fades within a few hours or a day and then it just smells like the fragrance oil.

    I love stuff like that! It definitely looks like it could be used as a soap dish.

    Where does everyone cure their soap??

    I keep them in the room where we store our products for sale in a sheet pan rack on wax paper. I leave the ceiling fan going all the time and I have a dehumidifier in the room that also runs constantly (I'm in Texas and it's very humid here most of the year). I keep the door closed so with the...

    What soapy thing have you done today?

    I saw that record high temps may be hitting the northeast this weekend. I'm in central Texas and right now it's 73 degrees! We've been getting rain almost daily for a couple of weeks and it looks like that will continue about another week so it's keeping us much cooler than normal. Wear light...

    Bath Bomb Adventure Begins!

    I get my baking soda from Costco as well and the citric acid from WSP. I just put another order in yesterday for a 5lb bag. I actually make what I call fizzy bath truffles. They are like bath bombs but have a higher oil content. I'm in Texas where it's very humid most of the year and I just...

    I loved those Little Hug drinks. We'd have them at church events in the summer when we were kids.

    What soapy thing have you done today?

    That's too funny because we have a cute little cottontail rabbit that hangs out by the rose bushes outside our dining room window and we named him Gus!

    What soapy thing have you done today?

    Here are the three batches I made over the weekend (my goat milk and oatmeal soaps). It's been about a month since I made soap and the last two batches before these were both total fails so I was glad these came out fine. From left to right it's Eucalyptus Tea, Madagascar Vanilla, and Lavender...

    I do use FOs mostly from WSP and a few from NS and BB.

    What soapy thing have you done today?

    I make a goat's milk and colloidal oatmeal soap and it's really nice, smooth, and creamy (it's the pic in my avatar). I get my oatmeal from Brambleberry and it's easy to work with.

    What soapy thing have you done today?

    It's been weeks since I've made any soap and it feels so weird. We had family come for a visit for a few days, then I got a sinus infection, and I've been busy doing yard work (trying to fix some bare patches with seeding). I've got a new batch of FOs coming tomorrow from WSP and this weekend I...

    The thought of doing a vendor event is freaking me out

    I was nervous doing my first show but it went really well and the more you do, the more you'll learn what's a good setup and stuff like that. We use three tables and make a U-shape display so people can walk in and look at the products. You can also do a U-shape where people walk around the...

    How to choose scents that sell

    We have a county/farm/rural vibe so I mostly use scents that are outdoorsy. I have a lot of floral, water, fruit, plant scents as opposed to food or perfumey scents to try. Lavender Vanilla, Honey & Patchouli, Blackberry & Magnolia, and Oatmeal, Milk, & Honey.

    I don't like Lavender scents but I know a lot of other people do so I picked that one and it has been very popular. I'm going to try another one from this sale too, Lavender Woods & Honey.
