I made already a lot of salt bars for Christmas. Takes 6-12 months to cure.

Kitties & doggies are so lucky. They don't have to wear masks or stay 6' apart to socialize.

This is a good time to share craft ideas for the holidays. Those ornaments reminded me of the year I made ornaments to decorate packages.

Do they still smell of cinnamon once cooked?

I made them many moons ago and yes they do smell of cinnamon after cooking. Like anything the scent will fade after time.

Christmas soap ideas: (some require molds that might need to be purchased so you might need to get a wriggle on).

I was wondering if there was already a Christmas-themed thread on the forum for this year - and I wasn't disappointed!

I found this video mind-blowing (for my soaping level which is way more at a beginner stage), such a good inspiration for Christmas soaps:

Thx' I screenshot your post' id love to make them' I love the scent of cinnamon' especially during the Hollidays. I'm wondering if I could add some cinnamon EO to the recipe?.

This is random, I dont know what brand of cinnamon powder Star Bucks uses' but its absolutely divine. Ive tried researching to find there source but had no luck.

I made this for my grand-nephews one Christmas. Great fun!!! They never did wash with it but years later I was surprised to learn they still played with it! I put it in margerine type tubs so they had a place to save it. Showering with it is a bit of a bear. Best to include a bath pouf for better lather -- as shown at the end of this video. I no longer have the recipe I used. You'll have to do a search for one.
