    Camden Gray is closing

    Never used them before, but couldn't resist 55% off. Sad though, seems they were in business for a long time.:(

    Oh... Well...

    I like the color. Never used mountain mist FO, now I will consider. That might be my favorite color.

    Rice water soap, is it worth it?

    It smells in soap just like it smells before you put it in the soap, just milder. I put the FO in it, so it kind of blended together, but didn't disappear. It doesn't stink to me, I like the smell of freshly cooked rice, still slightly strange to smell it in soap. You have to try, I don't think...

    Rice water soap, is it worth it?

    I made a Rice water soap after reading a thread that @Misschief mentioned above. I liked it, but mine has a distinct smell of rice water. Not sure whether it is common. I do love the feel of it on the skin and leather, but not sure if I would make it again. Currently using my first bar, did not...

    Trade Fragrance oil for Knitted Washcloth

    Apparently, my proposition to knit washcloth wasn't clear to the moderator. I need to clarify. I am not selling anything here, I am offering free services, just for fun. The only payment will be for shipping, not a cent more.

    Trade Fragrance oil for Knitted Washcloth

    you are welcomed, @Saponificarian anybody wants some washcloth? When I knit - I don't snack. It is a win-win. If somebody wants washcloth or something else - let me know the size and I will gladly do it. I have plenty of cotton yarn.

    Fragrance Packaging, So Different

    Funny, my mystery fragrances are the Bramble Berry ones:nodding:. I kind of thought they are all the same, I just happened to spill on BB FO, maybe it is BB's label after all.

    Fragrance Packaging, So Different

    I still put tape on top of all the labels on the fragrances. If you spill the FO on the bottle - all the info might disappear with time. Ask me how I know:cool:. I have couple of bottles from which even the name of FO disappeared.

    Slipcover...

    @Mobjack Bay, I did something like that a while ago. Maybe a little late, but I suggest you to sew in the zippers that will go from top to bottom of back side seams of the sofa. That way you can make the slipcover fit very tight and when it is time to wash - will not have a problem to remove it...

    Impatience

    I am on the other side of this equation. I do wait at least a month before using soap, I think it leathers better after curing. But, boy, I wish the bar can only last for a week or two. I have so much soap at home, that with the rate we are using it - it will last me 10-15 years. And that's IF I...

    Name this soap

    + for Matrix. Sounds masculine. Maybe because I never heard about Escher:cool:. Going to google it now.

    Heating pad question

    My Kane is only supposedly goes to 140 (not to fry little piggies that is originally made for;)). I turn in on when I start making soap so by the time I am putting the mold on it - it is nice and warm., and keep it on for about 12 hrs. Then turn it off, and cut the soap in 18-24 hrs. I still get...

    Trade Fragrance oil for Knitted Washcloth

    @Saponificarian, I already made 4 towels of cotton yard, but it wasn't Bernart one. Hope you will like those. I have Bernart one too, but I thought it is too soft. Will make couple more with Bernart, see what you think. Pls let me know where you want me send them. BTW, most of my yarn comes...

    Trade Fragrance oil for Knitted Washcloth

    Ok, I will get to it tomorrow. Is it for washing dishes? For dishes I was crocheting and making it smaller than that. The crochet ones are normally thicker, that way it is easier to squeeze. But I really don't care about the size, knitting is actually faster. Let me make some and we will talk...

    Trade Fragrance oil for Knitted Washcloth

    I love knitting. Will do it just for fun for anyone who wants it. What size do you want and what type of yard? I can knit and crochet. Crochet wash cloth is a little rougher, so it scrubs better.

    Heating pad question

    I use Kane heating mat. It has temp adjustments, it is incased in hard plastic so can be wiped. I just put the mold on top and cover with towel. Works better that the oven for me. here is the pic
