    I made my first batch!! With cut pictures added.

    that is very pretty :) I have been trying to find a reason to buy one of those teeny molds but honestly couldn't find one. But now I am thinking I could do special batches for ME in it ;) Being so small I wouldn't cringe too much using a teaspoon of Inky Blue (EXPENSIVe) German Chamomile in...

    Wedding Favors

    hmmm.... the only thing I have heard about with soap at weddings is to not scent them so as not to "ruin" the meal they are placed in front of but that sounded like absolutely NO FUN to ME ;) I might do a play on words with "pura" meaning "pure"... and do all natural colors and scents...

    I got some cool leaf boxes!!! any ideas on labels?

    And Do any of you use boxes? I want to figure out how to decorate them, while still having the simplicity... or maybe I will go insane and decorate them all over ;) I am thinking of making a stamp with my business logo to stamp on, then maybe a clear label with soap descriptions...

    Moisturizing Shampoo Bar

    I don't have a recipe anymore, I used to make it years ago but I would have to dig through the boxes to find mine but I think the real trick to shampoo bars is using a good rinse. Add a tablespoon or so of vinegar to a cup or two of water and rinse this through your hair after shampooing...

    could you share a basic way to add the goats milk? a friend of mine said that in the past she added it at trace, about a 1/2 a cup, will this make a good recipe good-er ;) But I have never tried that... Or do I need to replace all of the water with GM Ice for a great recipe? I just don't...

    I ahve been interested in natural stuff since I was in highschool, but when I was 20, I took an "Herbal Crafts for Spring" weekend class at the community college and that led into everything :) 2 years later I took her "Herbal Christmas Crafts" class just to show her everything I had learned...
