What soapy thing have you done today?

[lrpolillo]

I made these the other day!!

I'm not familiar with them? I'm trying, if at all possible, to stay with Cdn suppliers.

Sorry they arent in Canada. I know they shipped there but I also know shipping to Canada has gotten somewhat expensive recently

This evening I took my latest soap's official photo. It smells SO amazing... Chocolate Fudge FO with Peppermint EO.

Just my Opinion, but the red plate takes away from the soap. My eyes are drawn to the red.
Is there another less bright plate ?

I labels some soap today

I took a break after my Christmas sales and I am having such a hard time getting out of the planning phase now! I have so many soaps that I need to restock and I feel like I have great ideas to start new soaps but I'm not getting much beyond that at the moment!

Just finished pouring a batch of unscented buttermilk soap as a gift for a scent sensitive friend. I did however, add peach colored mica. I couldnt help myself.

I thought about what kind of soap I might make tomorrow but have decided that this weekend is not a soaping weekend. With John being somewhat incapacitated after surgery this week, I think my time will be better spent doing non-soapy things. That said, I will be going to our local farmer's market to check out some display ideas built by a couple of local wood workers. Once there, I'll also check out the soap making competition.

That qualifies as a soapy thing I think. I have a full weekend of errand running so tonight will likely be my only soaping.

Got in some stuff from Nature's Garden the other day including some cocoa butter, castor oil, and sweet almond oil! I've got a batch of oils premeasured for a Eucalyptus Spearmint soap (I'm obsessed with B&BW Aromatherapy line) and I've got some other ideas for a Nurture Soap Herbalicious one. I'd like to use my sweet almond oil and also try a lard soap since I bought a bucket today! I suppose I can spend the rest of the morning researching new recipes to try

All your soaps are so pretty!!! I love seeing everyone's creativity.

I finally finished my third and last batch of soap for my grandparents' anniversary - I used a different recipe with more soft oils and was able to accomplish my in-the-pot swirl just like I wanted!! I'll be sticking with that recipe as long as it is still good after the cure. My first soaps should be cured in a week and I'm very excited to use them truly instead of sneaking scraps into the bathroom to test them out ;P

 

[dalewaite48]

Yes. Grandville area.

Well we’re practically neighbors I live in Hudsonville, you need to stop by and check out my store.

Cut my unscented buttermilk soap this morning. I decided to make my friend her own label and name the soap after her. "Monica's UNSCENTED Buttermilk Soap" I won't be able to package it for a while but I was giggling while I was designing the label.

She runs a non profit for Missing Persons and at last years conference I donated 300 bars of soap and she drove them to the hotel and I got to hear how her car smelled like Lemongrass Grapefruit for a week (Hence the All caps UNSCENTED)
