Starduster, isn't it amazing how we always find the money for the things that really speak to us? That absolute longing for something, you can't get it out of your head, you just have to have it!! I love that kind of wanting!!
Your dolphin cupboard is beautiful also. Fits right into your starsign.
I also have lots of dolphin-ish things around my house.
And Cathy, your little cabin is wonderful. I would love to have my own space to get away to. For now I have to be happy having my own cupboard full of my things, and the kitchen and laundry are mine too (aren't I lucky!). Your soaps are so lovely, and your designs look so complicated, but with your intruction are actually very simple!! I love your ideas.
As for curing soaps, they are mostly in the top of my sons builtin wardrobe, the cureds are in shoe boxes in the bottom of the cupboard, I don't have that many of those though.

Over Memorial Day DH painted and moved and screwed and hung for me all weekend. He worked so hard to get my soap room ready! Then he brought all the supplies in from ALL OVER THE HOUSE and I put it all away.
Welcome to my soap room!
Loving my fragrances all alphabetized.
Farmers Market Product ready to load in the car.
My workspace.
Everything I need at arms reach.
Oils on the bottom, racks in the middle, storage on top.
I have another closet to put shelves in and when I do I'll move the storage stuff from the shelves and add more drying space.
Around the corner is a large closet for finished products and my tent, tables, props - things like that.
I still have my office upstairs and I think I will continue to make labels up there.
Thanks for looking!

OMG! I am BEYOND JEALOUS! I can't wait to see it up close and personal! Come on, Saturday....! Better yet, why don't I just cart my supplies over to your place and I'll just do my soaping there.... ;-)
Your DH painted, moved, screwed and hung well... ! Ooo, did I just say that?

Kevin just read what you wrote. He's a blushin big.
When I told him it was 'You' he shook his head and walked off... mumbling something about Saturday.

Kristin - I saw Debs soap kitchen up close and personal and it is any soapers dream space! Her hubby did a great job didn't he?
Well, here's my minimal space for soaping - 1 cabinet in my kitchen for supplies and my kitchen island. But since this is just a hobby for me it works for now.
this is the cabinet where I keep my supplies (sorry about pic quality, can't seem to keep my hand still and I took it with my cell phone too)
Here's my kitchen island where the magic happens:

Re: Pretty in pink
Starduster, Hey wanna swap? I give you my space and you give me yours w/the view??? yea, right, I wouldn't give up that view for all the money in the world!
Isn't it fun though seeing all the different spaces where people make their soap?

Wow, awesome work space Deda!!!! You lucky duck!
My hubby is still working on my soap room. It is 90% finished now but we're holding off to buy some pantry cupboards and shelving until we go to "the city" (I live in the boonies) next week. Once I get those I'll be able to organize my oils and EO's/FO's and I'll be ready to rock n roll! I can't wait! I'll post pics of my room in a couple of weeks.....

Deborah,
Love the color of your walls, they are almost the same as the color in my office:
And don't worry, we still love ya! You should see my bedroom - NOT! I have stuff here, there and everywhere but that's just the way I am and I'm ok with it. Of course, my parents are not but who cares, they don't live with me anymore lol

Ah, what the hell...
I want you all to know that I don't show ANYONE the rudimentary nightmare that is my soap-atory, but I'll set aside my mortification this once.
This is as basic as it gets. I honestly do have a house where real people live and it's even nice upstairs...lol...unfortch - I am banished to a little cubby in my unfinished, non-matching ugly paneled walled basement to soap, for now. My "tables" are old doors garbage picked from neighbors and set on top of saw horses. I have 2 more, but haven't gotten around to slapping them together yet. The cabinet you see is also crammed as full as it can get, and the other side of the "room" has soap curing and setting out everywhere. Don't have that side in pix though. My grade -A professional lighting is an old floor lamp stuffed behind the door-table...lol. Someday, I will have a real room. For now, I soap in squalor. :wink:

LJA, I am having squalor envy. To the rest with an actual space dedicated to soaping...jealous. I hate toting my goods from basement to kitchen when I want to soap. But, I must if I will feed my addiction!
