SOAP AND OTHER THINGS



The first soap I made this weekend was made with tallow, raw cow milk, coconut oil, sodium hydroxide, shea butter, soap shreds from fisherman soap, fragrance, blue mica, and cornflower petals.  The soap came out more of a gray blue than planned, but it is still pretty  The fisherman soap shreds show specks of a brighter blue in the center cut bar of soap.  The fragrance is a mixture with a slight floral, vanilla, blueberry, and mandarin.  It smells lovely!

The second soap I made this weekend is made with Vanilla, Mandarin, Bourbon fragrance oil.  It also smells lovely.  It goes great with the above soap fragrance and with Clorox from cleaning, and toots.  LOL

 
HAVE YOU NOTICED THAT MOST OF THESE MOLDS BOW IN THE CENTER?  I HAVE PURCHASED SOME BOARDS, BUT I HAVEN'T PUT THEM TOGETHER YET.

These were on sale at Hobby Lobby last week.   I THINK THEY WILL MAKE GREAT DISPLAY SHELVES FOR SHOWS.  SO FAR THEY HAVEN BEEN A FUN TOY FOR THE GRAND-DAUGHTER

How was your week?  I hope all is well with you.   We are almost in 2016.  Are you making any resolutions or changes in the new year?  Dawnie
