Oh those sheep are just the cutest little guys! You've been busy. Kelly

Great mottle you've got going there...love the green. Let's see more!! Kellyo

Thanks all, yup I'm gonna be a soapin fool !!! Luci - you gotta jump in girl, you won't regret it. Kellyo

Great job...if this is your first attempt can't wait to see more. Can't imagine the patience it takes to do one of these. Kellyo

After months of trying, I finally made a cp soap that I really like Thanks to all who post regularly, you don't know how many times I would come in & read your posts to figure out what the heck I did wrong and go back and try again. Finally realized any recipe I had lard in just wouldn't work for me. Huge thanks to Darwin...I started with your basic recipe and tweeked until I found just the right mix for me and voila...success . You guys rock! Kellyo

Very elegant! Nice job. Kellyo

Hi to all..I joined CT a while ago to feed my interest in candles but long about march I caught the b&b bug. Boy, did I catch it. Have spent the last few months formulating a lotion I love. Had a more than a few failures and then moved on to soap after reading everything I could lay my eyes on. Now, after all these months of standing on my feet carefully measuring ingredients, stirring only clockwise and crossing my fingers on my left hand only (seems to be the only way to keep the gremlins out of the workshop) I'd like to try some of Bunny's Foot Scrub that everyone raves about...any Canadians have a link where you can get silica? I can't seem to find any up here and my poor little tootsies need some tlc. Kellyo

Excellent job! Sure looks good enough to eat Kellyo

Very nice!! Kellyo

Thanks for sharing Sara....I couldn't resist making this tonight & it's really nice. I like simple. Simple is good for a newbie like me that came here to learn about candles & find I'm spending more & more on b&b supplies all the time and reading tons about soaping. I just ordered some wicks & somehow all the things for cp soap somehow fell into my basket. You are all really bad influences & I love it Now...to find some courage to try soap.... Kellyo

Hi BrandNew - welcome to the boards. You'll learn a lot. I don't post often as I'm too busy reading everything. You'll usually find the answer you are looking for if you search. Plus everyone is so helpful - great bunch of people. I'm Canadian too & have had to do a lot of research on where to get what. I can attest that Canwax is great. I haven't had a single problem with anything I've ordered. I've ordered everything from their wax, all types, f.o. & wicks, to their b&b supplies. S.J. is very helpful & patient so if you are looking for something in particular pop her an email & I'm sure she'll try and help you out. Shipping is a pain for everyone and unfortunately you do have the stumbling block of the island to overcome. I can't advise you on this as I live close enough to canwax to pick up whatever I need. It can be tough though, we're all feeling the pinch of the shipping costs. Have fun, experiment, remember to be safe and go make some candles. You'll be hooked in no time. Oh & wick pins - I couldn't live without them. I can't centre anything if my life depended on it. Kellyo

Very nice, never been a chunkie fan but gotta say these are growing on me. Love the colours. kellyo

I'm from Canada so I'm crossing my fingers that maybe one day something like this will hit this side of the border. I'd love to see some articles interviewing some of the amazing artists we have here. I could name dozens but hey Donita's work is amazing, Top is top, Scented is great - so many, I could keep naming for hours - all wonderful people that have done absolutely stunning work & shown a real dedication to their craft & still find time to show us newbies the ropes. Kellyo

Looks yummy, great job. Kellyo

Thanks for looking everyone. It's nice to get encouragement. I wasn't too sure about the colour combo. What looks good going into the mold sometimes isn't so great coming out. Appreciate your comments. Kelly O
