DeleteI have made lip balm and a plantain healing salve but that's it so far and you have me so intrigued and amazed at how productive you are! And yes, those soaps are beautiful!!!
ReplyDeleteAwe, thanks.
DeleteThat body butter looks amazing! And do you have a mold for your soaps--they look great!
ReplyDeleteThank you! And yes, I do have a mold for them. I picked it up a few years ago, can't remember where, but I do love it.
DeleteI love the swirl pattern on the body butter! I've been making all day and all night to get ready for this art fair. Hopefully it won't rain! I barely turn my computer on these days because of all the sewing I've been doing.
ReplyDeleteThanks KC! Good luck this weekend, can't wait to hear how it goes.
DeleteI think these are just beautiful! It's about time for me to make my peppermint lip balm, too. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you! And yes, get on that :)

DeleteThat body butter looks delectable! I am elbows deep in yarn lately but hope to dive into balms next year. I read in another comment that you will be selling, I hope that goes well for you. The purchasers will be lucky I'm sure! :)
ReplyDeleteIt is! I am selling it and it has been going very well. I have sold out twice and am almost sold out for a third time. Very successful. I am so grateful for the support, it has been wonderful.
