Oh I do so agree! I'm sitting at a market right now - been here nearly 5 hours - I've sold $45 worth! Mostly to relatives. Thank God for relatives :D The weather is the culprit but, hey, we need the rain too. I'm rethinking markets too ... hmm :?

Sitting at the market ... rain ... thunder ... biting cold ... (at least I'm inside in the hall). Not much happening though. My great auntie did come along and buy 5 soaps but that's it so far *sigh*. Still it is only 9.52am. Who knows, maybe the sun will come out and we'll have a lunch rush...

Packaging, packaging, packaging - I should get more organised. Market day tomorrow.

Yep, those are our dandelions too Teresa, and yes I still blow the seeds :)

You crack me up! :D

Well there you go! Could be a good name for a soap ... "Lion's Teeth" ... or not :D

I put Honey Ale in a beer soap too but didn't like it. I'm hoping I'll like it more as it cures. Back to BB - yes they do listen to customers. I asked if it were possible could they include percentages next to their oil amounts in recipes on Soap Queen as it's easier then for those who use...

Uh, just all over our lawns ... like everywhere! ... wow I didn't even know all this about dandelions Teresa, thanks. I'll have to go outside and pick me some dandelions. I'm supposing dandelions are the same thing everywhere though, hopefully not another name for a different flower? Like...

Could someone please just clarify for me what % of water is considered "full water"? Also - is 40% soft oils considered high? (Just trying to trouble-shoot some soap issues I'm having) Thanks in advance :)

Yay, how beautiful! :)

strangle

I wouldn't rebatch that one, it looks nice, and if smells good too then it's a win-win. Sorry I quoted the wrong bit of your post, don't know how :)

Well thanks TeresaT and McMom, I'm pretty happy with it. Teresa, I do my batch numbers very similar but with the first letter of each word in the name, ie your Pooch Smooch would be 20160426PS rather than POO. I'm sure people would get what it meant though ... maybe ... ;)

Sliced my first activated charcoal soap. I wasn't actually going for the planet-in-space look but that's what it looks like. And I think it looks kinda cool. Got heaps of soda ash though, had to try and rub most of it off. The colour inside is black enough, but the grey bits I think are ash.

Yum yum, beautiful :)

Fudge? ... Oh, how disappointing! :razz:

I'm relatively new still like TeresaT, so I'm experimenting with recipes now and trying out the expensive oils. You can tell me all you like how unnecessary they are but I have to find out for myself. As for goat milk, my absolute favourite soap so far is a goat milk and honey. It's utterly...

Yeah, same. I should have sent a PM or something. Retrospect - it's a beautiful thing. My apologies to Misschief and Mac. According to my husband who is Canadian, we Aussies tend to jump in mouth first and can come across as brusque (even rude :think:) sometimes when it's the last thing we're...
