Kumquat Cold Process Handmade Soap!

What an amazing scent!! I was not sure what Kumquat smelled like until I received my oils...OMG...I'm not a "fruit scented" lover, but this smells amazing!! Big chunky bars of juicy fruit!

Bath Bombs!!!


I finally found a recipe for Bath Bombs that I love! They have Shea Butter, Coconut Oil, and Fragrance Oils. I need to purchase more Christmas ornaments (from Hobby Lobby) so I can make them round, although I do like the half circle.
These are scented with Mandarin Tiki! A fresh, citrus scent that's very refreshing.

Bright Sunny, and Oh So Yummy Cold Process Soap!


They really are as bright as the first picture! I used a yellow swirl to color the soap. The fragrance oil was tinted, so the swirl is not as noticeable, but I love how it turned out! It is scented with Mandarin Tiki. The smell is divine and the cold process method was perfect for this soap!

Summer In St. Louis!

A beautiful blend of Jasmine and Sandalwood! The colors were supposed to be purple and green, but the purple turned out my "gray"....but it still has a wonderful scent!!

Salad Anyone?

I colored the base with a light green and the smaller swirl with the same color, but more concentrated. It's scented with Avocado Mint!

Can You Believe This Bloom!

Can you believe how big this bloom is? It's a cutting from my Endless Summer Hydrangea. I planted this bush last Spring, but it didn't bloom because of the late frost we had. I was just happy the plant survived! The bush is FULL of blooms and Endless Summer blooms all Summer!Here are the pictures I took for my Etsy shop. It's Fresh Linen.

Fresh out of the mold! I'm going to let it sit for a few hours before slicing.

Christmas In June! Cold Process Soap


I have a hard time picking a favorite scent, but I think it may be Gingerbread! I could use it all year!
They came out quite yellow, although I didn't add any color. I'm hoping they cure to a nice brown!

St. Louis Summer






I'm having such a hard time with posting pictures and lining up the typed words, so I decided to list the flowers at the bottom.
Pictures starting at the top are: Sweet William, Salvia, Red Hot Pokers, Peony Poppy ready to pop, Speedwell, and Gallardia. All started by seed...by me!

Wasabi Anyone??



I'm having such a good time making soap! This soap is Cucumber Wasabi and Cilantro! I colored with with green and swirled in the yellow. I think it turned out great!

The last picture is right after it was poured. I like the finished color better.
