Same with my dad. It's been almost 11 years since he actually said it to me (and I was taking a commercial flight to the far coast of the US for the first time, so he betrayed his worry). It usually comes out sounding like "Watch the deer" as one of us leaves the house. LOL

Frankly I'm surprised and impressed by the folks that had the patience to read the 'confused' posts! I just stuck to reading the replies because I couldn't handle trying to make sense of what everyone was applying too. Kudos to the lot of y'all for wading through it in order to even be able to...

I got mine from SKS Bottle. They're not too bad and they have shrink wrap to fit their jars.

Heh, Fresh Snow smells like laundry to me too!

I do find it interesting that they've taken that notice down. I mean, the truth of it hasn't changed and it was useful information. They'd have been better off leaving it there so (new) folks wouldn't be surprised when they realized that BB aren't speedy shippers.

I did my first little show/fest thing today here in our tiny little podunk town. I made back my $20 table fee, but I know I didn't get paid for my time. Little bit more than I actually expected to do, considering our town, but it was a way to get 'out there'. I would just like to facepalm...

They turned out pretty awesome. I'm a terrible hick, I am strangely entertained by the shrink wrap.

Yes, I plan way in advance for orders from Brambleberry and count on it taking longer than most other places. I've always had good interactions with them, I just know at this point that it's going to take me some time to get my order from them. Hopefully before long I won't have to get my...

This sounds reasonable to me! :)

So I've to some double walled jars and got the bands to go with them. They shrink well enough I suppose with a hair dryer, but we also have a heat gun I can use. The concern that I have, though, is that inside these jars is whipped butter. Is the heat from the hair dryer or heat gun while I...

My mommy got me a Bud Haffner soap cutter for my birthday (it came a month late, but hey, you can't rush good craftsmanship; and also, she likes to put stuff off at the last minute)! I got this one...

Need a roomie? (only slightly kidding). I talked to a friend who went this past year and asked if she was going again and had the space if be willing to let me crash on the floor or something. I don't know if she managed to get a room or not and I'm too chicken just yet to bring it up again. :P...

*waves* I would be among that group! Making a Jedi Clone Wars General cosplay (or trying, it keeps getting put to the back burner!), thinking about Rebels Ahsoka, I don't sit still to play games or watch TV much, but I devote my limited ability to do that to Harry Potter, Star Wars, and Tolkein...

Soap Making? LOL. I argue with people on that group all the time about selling 6 months in, whether or not their soap is 'natural' (spoiler: it's not) and curing time. The best ones are the ones who can't even bother to address my comment specifically, they just 'talk over' me.

I get a lot of 2oz bottles of fragrances to try out (slowly building my collection of larger bottles of scent though) and use about an ounce and a half in my batches of soap. What do you guys do when you have a half ounce or less of a fragrance? Do you make little things of perfume (solid or...

You may need to move your images to imgur or imgbb to be able to share them. Even the direct links to photobucket don't work anymore.

Yes, they're going to be my next order to get set up for business. I had to order some butters and things and will be cutting my labels on our vinyl printer/cutter for the next couple of weeks, but it will be so much easier to just order from Online Labels and do it with the laser printer instead!

Red and silver, silver and gold, red and gold, green and gold. I made a red and gold one.

Greendragon, the other soapers aren't telling you the things they're telling you just to be hateful or unreasonable. If you really did add dry lye into your batter instead of dissolving it into water first, you will get a nasty surprise when you go to use this soap. The volume measurements are...

Sure, why the heck not? I'll PM you.
