A swirl soap I did today! I forgot to add the fragrance I had planned, but I'm happy with it.
Don't you hate that when you forget to add the fragrance after all is said and done. I have done that at least twice now and it is usually because someone distracts me during my process. I am so glad to hear I am not the only one who does this. :roll:
Yes, I got distracted...the doorbell rang as I was stickblending the base, so I had a friend watching in some fascination as I finished, which made me nervous!
I work in my kitchen, which is not good...my husband hates it, plus the kitchen has a back door which everyone comes and goes through. You also have to walk through the kitchen to get to the stairs to the basement. It's a TERRIBLE layout and I hate it.
I always let everyone know when I am mixing lye, the kids all know the kitchen's off-limits, but it still worries me a lot...
Thankfully, my husband and I just signed on our first house, which has a detached shop. We are very VERY excited. He is a glass blower, and works out of our laundry room. At the new place, one end of the shop will be his art, and one end will be mine, I think
Even though I forgot the FO on this one, I like how it turned out; it's curing nicely. Lots of people prefer unscented soap, more than I realized when I started doing this.
