Make and Listen







Making:

~ organic peppermint lip balm

~ organic hand salve

~ organic healing salve, made with herbs grown in my backyard and a little wildcrafted jewelweed

~ organic lemongrass body butter

~ orange spiced soap

~ a milo for a gorgeous little one who arrived a few weeks ago and a neck warmer for Reece to match the hat I already knit for him, both are winter solstice gifts

Listening:

~ it is all Christmas music around here, all day long, and we are enjoying every minute of it

What have you been making and listening too?

    1. Thank 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.

  9. I 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.
