Mine is bagless too. Hadn't thought about washing the filter, good idea. TY :)

^^^^ what they said :) Never feel stupid. Always ask if you're curious. And always offer what you have to contribute. This place seems to have been built on the open minded thinker model, so there's room for all trains of thought :)

I love topics like this. I never get to have intellectual discussions in real life because no one I know seems to be interested in anything other than reality tv. Sometimes I think you guys save my sanity by reminding me the world is out there, and engaging my oh so artsy fartsy nerdy brain :)

Artisan tomato seeds????? Wth???? LOL. Oh vey!!

I can't speak for others, but my interest in this particular article was generated by my knowledge of their issues with the bad lye and how that was handled. The bad lye issues had already made me very reluctant to purchase from them, and reading this added more distrust. Did I assume when I...

TEG I agree. The whole concept has changed greatly with the advent of DIY blogs, YouTube, and Pinterest.

Ooooo I love the color combo

I've always thought of artisan more in terms of style, not individual. When I see something like "artisan glass", I know it's been hand crafted by an individual artist, that it is unique and likely to be one of a kind, and that the creator is an artist who works in glass, as opposed to someone...

Ok so my apartment is a very dusty place now, thanks to the DE. I sprinkled it flippin everywhere! Every piece of upholstery in the house has been dusted. And I used a broom to brush it down into the nap and fibers. Wish I could vacuum it up now because I hate the dustiness, but I'll wait if...

Hehehe

I did nada, unfortunately. Last night at work sucked, was worn out and stressed out when I got home, so took forever to fall asleep. Woke up tired, cranky, and wanting to be left alone. Then I went to early thanksgiving dinner (she won't be home for the holiday) at my cousin's house and was...

Oh June ::::::::hugs:::::::: I'm so sorry for your loss. I'm glad he isn't in pain anymore and is at peace, but I'm so sorry for you and your family. Prayers for all of you.

Deedles TY :) the box design is based on an envelope punchboard design I saw in a YouTube video, I just adjusted the size and the score/fold lines to make it a size suitable for my soaps. I modified the flap design from the original box design to suit what I wanted to do with the only two rubber...

TY :) I like paper craft so making boxes is a breeze once I get into the rhythm :)

Obsidian, I guess that's a fair statement. It is indeed better than a day out of oven, cut and selling, because "cooking it cures it". If I ever sell, I'll be the loony lady, who pays rent for a two bedroom because I need a room to store soap LOL. I feel anxious sharing 6 week old soap with my...

Would it work to mix the glitter with oil or glycerin, then paint it into the details? If you painted it into the fine details, let it set for a bit to get a little solid or dry up a little bit, then you should be able to spoon soap over it gently until it's covered (and won't shift), then pour...

Susie, true, and most of the time I don't react. I think I did this time because the sophistication of the packaging and their brand leads you to assume they are experienced and professional, so it got under my skin. When I see newbies saying such, i point them at good resources, including here...

The cure time I'm willing to wait for, but if it never fully absorbed and made for permanently sticky soap, that's a no bueno.

Pardon my rant... I'm on YouTube, doing my usual soap p*rn searches (don't judge me, you know you do it too lol), and I come across a video about packaging. I'm interested in anything related to the packaging design (can't help it, it's my art background showing), not really listening to the...

I want to try it with mica and with a natural colorant and see if I can get a bleed effect, but I'm trying to think how to do it. Pardon the smoke, it happens when I'm thinking hard LOL
