Wow beautiful!

A batch of Lemon Verbena with poppy seeds and 2 batches of Lavender for me, still under blankets!

 

[rubyslippers]

Love your little flower designs! You need to post a tutorial on how to do that

Been busy today....made a batch of soap scented with a mixture of pearberry, sweet cranberry & hello sweet thang. I've had pink clay on hand but never used it so I decided to use that to give the soap a little color.
And, I made a yummy smellin' Coconut Cabana lotion and a bunch of roll-on deoderants.

Those are fantastic!

I don't usually make soap on the weekends. It was really cold and windy this weekend. So we pretty much laid low, snuggled up and watched movies, drank tea and lazed around. I did get a little hooky with an afghan I'm working on and knitted one sock.

Wow, neat stuff! I love the flower ones! I made lotion bars and after bath sprays for Christmas presents.

I waited in vain for the phone call telling me that my grandchild was born. That has nothing to do with soap, its just what I did, or rather didn't do, that I really wanted to.

This weekend nothing so far have to use few more bars up before I can make more.

 

[cwarren]

I really love the flowers too

 

[holly99]

The flower ones are so cool! I'm impressed!

Today I made Chamomile Lavender Cream, Rosemary Mint, and Blackberry Cream.

 

[agriffin]

Those look wonderful! Very creamy and smooth!

Rosemary mint (mine's from WSP) is one of my fav fragrances right now.

I made two Winter CP Soap recipes from the Snowdrift Farm Formulary site. Winter Rose (had to rebatch this one) and Warm Woods. They had 9 and 11 oils/butters, respectively. I mixed the e/o and f/o blends saturday a.m. and weighed out the oils into buckets on saturday night. This morning warmed oils and butters in presto pot then back into bucket to mix with lye/water I mixed this a.m. Both went well, but Winter Rose was still jiggly after 7 hours. Both smell great, we'll see how the rebatch comes out.

I finally got around to making agriffin's whipped soap recipe. I made some mistakes but hopefully it will turn out all right.

Moonlight Path type (blue swirl), shampoo bars, and a red clay Chyphre Rose. (holy cow, I am in LOVE with that scent). Itty bitty hijack...anyone know any other supplier of Chypre or Chypre Rose besides Southern Soapers?

agriffin--Those flower shapes ROCK!!! Did you use a pastry tube or something?

holly99-those look so rich and creamy!

Just finished two test batches of cp: Hop-Citrus and a split mold of Toasted Camelina and a Chocolate- Spice Camelina.

Yesterday and Friday made 6 different m&p batches with hops and camelina.

I can't wait to see how the cp batches turn out tomorrow!

I always have trouble posting pixs here but I'll try when they're done.

I love the pixs above..especially the Bubble Bars and those craft molds.

 

[Bubbles Galore]

Very nice soaps peoples. I made one batch with Honey Fragrance (with Tussah Silk, Calendula and French Clay) and one batch with True Rose fragrance (with Tussah Silk and French Clay).

 

[Dragonkaz]

I love looking at the beautiful photos ... plus reading about the interesting soaps people are making!

I made my second batch of cp soap. I used cinnamon and patchouli EO and ground cinnamon. It smells wonderful ... but I'm not confident about the look.

 

[photoshadows]

Everyone's soaps sound and look fantastic! I always love these threads in particular. I find the forum in general rather inspiring, but these threads are the best for getting the juices flowing. I love hearing and seeing what other people are up to. So much fun!!!!

 

[holly99]

Such gorgeous soapies! Thank you for the comments on mine. I'm going to try to get them cut soon. It's so fun to see what everyone comes up with.
