WOW!!! You guys are great with all this stuff! I'll be ordering from soap jar today! Thank you wvcandlecrazy for that one!

Thank you, all of you, this thread has been awesome!

What did you use for the pink dye? I just dipped my first one the other night.

Thank you all so much! I can't wait to get started! What great ideas!!

Or any near Nevada? Like Calif? Oregon, Utah, Colorado maybe? I'll be in Montana too this year, a couple of times. Any there??

Thanks for that link Vicky_CO! That picture on the site is really pretty!

Cheap? No way! They look really pretty, upscale.

mkpk,

I only used 1/4 teaspoon. And I used a FO instead of an EO cause I don't don't have any EO's yet. It was pretty strong at first, until they dried. Then it was nice.

I did it! And I didn't burn the house down or anything! Connie, thanks for the tip, I didn't do anything with the wax, so now its still in there, waiting for me to clean it up. *UGH*

Oh wow Demenshia! Those are really cool! Thank you for posting those!

I have wax melting for my very first anything! I'm dipping a bear! How am I suppose to clean this crock pot out afterwards? It 1am, I must be crazy!! OMG! I'm so excited! And NERVOUS!! :bliss:

They sure are prettier than the garbage I made.:embarasse I'll have to research and see where they get just the rocks. I don't have small kids anymore, I have grandkids, but I can put it up when they come over.

Did you see these?? This is on a different site.

Wow...wouldn't be using a lot of scent? Anyways, I went and looked...feel really stupid asking this...but where exactly did you see the rocks? I saw the cinnamon bun things and the wax dipped hearts...but no rocks.

I figured they'd last just a few days?? I wasn't really sure. *L* I just wanted to see what they'd smell like in a dish on the counter. I didn't think about putting them in a drawer. I don't need moldy underthings! *lol*

Thanks!

The recipe you posted is the same as salt clay ornaments except yours has FO in it.

I googled scented playdough recipes and came up with many different recipes. Some you cook some you don't. Maybe one of those recipes would work better, who knows.

I wish I knew of a ceramist (a person who makes ceramics) that lived close by. I would make clay marbles and have them fired, that way you could add FO to the porous clay balls.

Oh cool! I'll have to google it too! Thanks!! I don't know a ceramist either. Maybe....do you have a college near you? If so then maybe they can do it and get some class credit for it?

morningstar...what kind of bags are you gonna put them in? Is this too heavy for those little organza bags?

Ok, I think my little molds are dry enough to pull out of there. I'm gonna start this all over and try flattening instead like ladysj said to.. I just don't have anything to put them in to hand out for testers to try. I'll have to get something.

Ok, when these dry, I'll try flattening them inside and see how that goes. And I'll flatten the next set of rocks. I don't even know anyone with babies, I just saw these molds for .50 and picked them up. I also got a rectangular one for the same price. It was on one of their sale shelfs.

Thanks ladysj

They'd look better if I cleaned them up some I guess. *lol* If you do the dolphins, show a pic so I can see. I still cannot BELIEVE I posted these!:embarasse *lol*

I love when you guys post these pics!

Very cool!!

:embarasse :embarasse :embarasse :embarasse

Ok, you know what? I'm gonna post this cause I'd like to know what this mold is suppose to be for. *lol* Is this for candy or for soap? Its flexible plastic, I got it on sale on Walmart for .50 It has 2 pieces, and last night I took the lavendar colored balls and smooshed them into these and today took one half off and they were still wet. I know they look horrible, but I have no clue what I'm doing.:embarasse Does it matter if these molds are for candy or soap when I do stuff like this?

Sounds good to me, but I know nothing about these scents and what they would smell like with each other. But real fruit smells great together, so give it a shot. *L* I'll try some more today and this time flatten them. These are easy to make and didn't make me feel stupid, well...til I showed a pic of them.

They are food coloring from McCormicks, probably out due to Easter coming up. Ahhhh....flatten the rocks....*lmao* I knew I would blow this. Do I dare put up the other pic of the molds??? If someone really wants to laugh their butt off, I'll post it.:embarasse

Okayyyyyyyyyyyyy....now this is embarrassing....I think I'll refrain from posting the molds/ *lmao*

So Demenshia, you do it different then. Do you scent your rock salt and that's it? Does your scent last when you make it??

I took the lavendar balls and put them in the molds. They look horrible! But here are the balls, this is suppose to be neon colored, they look pastel to me...
