Oh dixiedragon your cat gave me such a giggle! But I bet she does it with flare! ;-) Can't help but love 'em!!

Welcome to the forum....looking forward to your contributions! :-)

Susie, I boiled up a generous amt. of fresh stinging nettle in my water then let it sit for AGES ....it becomes a darker green. Then added the lye and tea tree EO. I got a lovely limey-green colour! Hope this helps....OH! If you try it please don't forget your thick gloves!! Don't forget to...

I don't know if you are still interested in replies but my teenage daughter and myself :-) loves my 100%lard bar with lots of ground oatmeal and a generous squirt of honey which gives it a natural scent which lasts. It matures brilliantly and isn't drying. I don't know if lard is inexpensive...

I would like to thank you for your wonderfully amusing story.....your invaluable use of spending ;-).....and the great idea of a fondant mat! I am already an avid pringles tin user and now it will be even better! Thanks ever so much! Amazon here I come....sorry hubby!:-o

thank you ladies!!! Have a Merry Christmas!! :D

since you're new also I'd try making a small batch first. That way if something does go wrong you don't feel so daunted by the amount you 'haven't' made! :wink: I KNOW!!! DON'T get discouraged!!! It'll come out right esp. if you use the soapcalc each time. GOOD LUCK :) btw Try getting a (used...

if anyone is still there try using a pringles can next time...no lining and you just tear it off! :)

juicybath...is your rosemary mint CP? It looks almost transparent!!! lovely

I've got some guinness to use first but yes I think I will ! a small batch at least!

they are lovely!!! :D an attractive design on the sides from the molds!!! Is that just a thick-ish plastic sheeting you've used on the ends?

Hiya!! just had a thought ....has anyone boiled rice in milk and then used it in their soap? would the starch have any effect on the soap? just curious!! :?:

Thanks Hazel I am chuffed with it. The crinkle cut just adds a leetle something! Hubby has just made the Christmas pudding (his yearly job) and there's half a can of guinness in the fridge so...once again uncharted territory................... it'll be guinness and ccn milk next! :D :D :D :D

Cut the pumpkin in half , scoop out the seeds and roast in the oven ,cut-side down, for about 45 minutes or til tender...depending on the size of your pumpkin...then scoop out the flesh and puree it. Some people boil it but I find, at least for pies, there's more flavour. Do the Chinese eat the...

brilliant ideas...thanks I have lots of frozen pumpkin puree in the freezer for pies I think I may just have to borrow a generous 5% of it now! :D If you feel too dry, you can use fresh lemon juice (squeezed! not beverage ) or 10% citric acid solution as hair conditioner. It helps a lot, let...

do you buy your ginger juice or squeeze it from fresh ginger? Great idea! I tried a shampoo bar but it was too drying for my hair. It was olive oil based but did NOTHING for me! I love consuming ginger so the transition to the head won't be too hard!...very tempting pretty poppy :)
