Week(end) happenings?

[Jcandleattic]

I put this here because I am going to be doing soaps, candles/wax, and lotions. 

 

I have a special request for a "Yellow Roses of Texas" soap, scented in lemon. (well, that was my interpretation of what she wants - the request was very convoluted) anyway, I will be doing a white/yellow swirled soap scented in lemon blossom, with yellow colored rose embeds on top. If it turns out it will be so pretty. (so of course SOMETHING will go wrong! LOL)

 

I am also going to try an experiment. 

I have the Bramble-berry silicone sphere molds in all 3 sizes, so I am going to TRY and make some "melting" snowman tarts. We'll see. I haven't exactly figured out how to attach the different sized balls to each other, because the bottom of the sphere's are actually flat, so that will be a challenge for the body and head portion, I'll have to figure out how to conceal that, and then the biggest challenge - the face - not sure how to paint the face on there. 

Anyway, this may be a work in progress type thing and it may take a while, so don't expect pics anytime soon. (Or at all if it is a bismal failure LOL) 

 

Also, I'm going to bottle up some masterbatch lotion I have, and then I will make some new to have at my show next weekend (weekend after Black Friday - the 6th & 7th of Dec) 

 

Since my uncle passed just yesterday (I posted about that in the off topic thread) I decided just to take next week off of my day job, since it's a short week anyway, which will give me more time to execute all this. However there will be a funeral, and also my sister is hosting Thanksgiving this year and she has requested my dinner rolls, my apple pie and I'm going to be bringing a spicy chip/pretzel dip as well. So I will be doing all of that as well. 

 

That's about it for me. 

Anybody doing anything crafty this weekend/week? Or is everyone focused on the holiday? Since I don't host, it makes it much nicer to relax during this holiday for me.

I finished putting together "Scents of Christmas" gift bags with cute little shapes and scents. The bags come with a gift tag so that they can be easily gifted. They turned out really cute. Here are some pics.

Busy weekend for everyone.   Mine has been super busy too.  I had (for the 3rd saturday in a row) a show.  This one was pretty good.  Not as good as I was hoping but it's always good getting my name out there more locally.  I made almost 10x the booth fee so yay.  Then today was church and then lunch at church then meeting at church.I have a HUGE show in a couple of weeks and I'm working on getting ready for that this week.  Plus, Thanksgiving in between.  I'm a little tired.

Some online shopping, maybe. Then experimenting with a cp soap recipe and pouring into my pvc pipe mold. AND catching the Christmas movies that've been around this year since Halloween
