I know that the question is odd, but I'm curious LOL

Thanks :) I musta studied a million heddle looms to make sure I had the basics hahahaha

Wow I really love that simple white soap

What's that famous quote? Necessity is the mother of invention :)

54. Soaping withdrawals will always feel worse when the only reason you can't soap is lack on one or two ingredients. Ugh! LOL

I'm waiting to see if I can get some lye before signing up. This challenge looks like fun based on the cool soaps so far :)

Oh how I hate to admit it, but I've eyeballed a few nearly empty things and wondered "hmmmm.... would it work?"..... LOL

I'm a believer in random acts of kindness. I do them all the time because I firmly believe that you never know when your simple act can change someone's day, attitude, or life. Life dishes out enough stress and hardship on its own, so if a little act of genuine kindness can help balance that...

I haven't had cable in over ten years. I refuse to pay the prices they charge. I use an OTA antenna to get my local area channels, and I have a roku that I use for Netflix and hulu. Even with the cost of my internet, I'm paying a ton less than I did when I had cable. I don't miss it.

Thanks to the defect bin at home depot, I now have a 24" wide loom. The entire thing cost me $4, and they were nice enough to cut them to my required sizes for me :). It ain't pretty, but it should be functional. I need to borrow a drill to make my peg holes deeper, but otherwise, it should...

I'm scoping them out and plotting how to get enough to buy one :)

I just caught up on the posts in this thread and I'm LOL ing my butt off

I daydreamed about making soap... does that count? :)

Awww a new baby! congrats! $250 isn't bad but outside my very limited budget. I have been eyeballing used rigid heddle looms for under 150 but even that is gonna take a very long time to save up for. But I am determined! First on my list is some dang lye so I can get back to soaping LOL...

I'm very jealous right now LOL. I'm still chugging away at my little wine box DIY loom and fast becoming frustrated with its limitations. I'm also trying to learn what types of threads to use for warping, and learning weaving patterns. I adore fiber art. :)

<--- is very jealous but happy for you :)

Absolutely I wear goggles, gloves, and closed shoes. Like several, long sleeves have proven problematic, as I've had to do the emergency strip when it got on my sleeve. Until I can get a couple of cheap lab coats, it's simpler to stick to a either short sleeves or rolled up sleeves. I have a...

LOL they just don't get it hahahaha

I can't imagine working with anything with lye in it without gloves. Lye still makes me nervous every time I use it, so it's a given I'm wearing gear. My hands do sweat inside my gloves, and I'm always worried about leaks, so I've taken to wearing the very thin disposable gloves (like they use...

Man I laughed hard at this one Hahahahaha
