Ty for the compliments! Hey I figure Louise ..... If we can't sleep ... we may as well do the next best thing! It's 3:44am here :lipsrseal What's your time??

This is an awesome FO!!! Tranquil Waters It smells so fresh and clean .... I love it!

I will be busy 'feeling my age' this weekend!!! My 1st baby ... the oldest of my 3 girls is turning 16 on Sunday. I just can't believe it has gone by that fast. Seems like just yesterday we we holding hands to cross the street, giving "Eskimo kisses" and being each others best friend & comfort while her Daddy was stationed overseas. Maybe I'm crazy .... but I am taking this very hard. Can't even think about it without crying. What a lush, I know. Surely I can't be the only one who has felt this way. I just feel like the count down has started to when I 'lose' her and she moves on with her life and leaves me behind! Must end it there cuz I can't see the screen thru all the tears ......

Still looks great!! I love the display

Ty, Ty I sure do miss the 'edit' feature where you could edit anytime you wanted! I hate going back and realizing I can't spell my way out of a paper bag!!

Very nice Louise!! I bet they smell wonderful. BS is something I have been wanting to try ... just don't know who to order it from. :undecided

I recently bought a slab mold and I am dying for some time to use it. Can't wait to see how I do with it. Thanks to all for the copliments!

They look great!! I love the frog

Congrats on your very 1st soap!! Looks great

Truly awe inspiring!! That is the most beautiful bar of soap I have ever seen!!

Are you looking at the already cut bars? If so, I am going to stick with the coloring they used. If there is more to add, I am sure someone else will chime in and help out.

What do you mean by 'shiny'? Are you taling about the color or the soap itself? If you are talking about the color, it might be because they use a mica that's shiny. If you have a pic of the 'shiny' soap ... that would help.

I am going to have to get some from Tony's

Everything looks wonderful!! Great basket

wow! those colors are great .... and your swirls are to die for!!

Thanks Louise! No, I wait 6 weekes ..... I had a full batch made when I met this man & his wife. I explained the 6 week cure time. So they bought the whole batch which gave me time to make several batches in advance. !st time around he had enough to last him the 6 week wait and by then I had several batches ready to go. Now each month he buys a full batch, and I already have a cured batch set aside. (for some reason I feel like I am blabbering on and on ) I am sure you get what I am trying to say. lol

I got my Amber Romance from Alabaster. It is a new scent they are carrying and it soaps wonderfully! I only used 1 oz p/p and I am sure I could have used less. Very nice scent and I would recommend it to anyone who wants AR that doesn't turn brown.

You better answer that phone!! :neener:

(I chose these because when I shop for homemade soap, these are the ones that I always feel every soaper offers and are good basic scents. Plus, I personally love all of these scents and if all else fails, I have enough soap to personally satisfy myself for years ) I am the same way. I look for different .... because I am different and don't like to be a 'follower'. I like being a leader. The Patchouli I posted in the gallery is something I insist on making because it is not sold anywhere else around here. People love it and are always looking for it. Makes for great sales!! hth

Hmmm.... Never had that happen to me before. Were the soap shavings already colored??

Smells great and the colors stayed true. I used Select Shades for the swirl on this one. I am pleased with how it turned out. This one is Patchouli. I leave it uncolored and used Peak's Patch. Very stong at only .5 oz p/p I have a local customer that won't use any other soap since he tried mine and he buys me out every month! Thanks for looking

Sleeping nicely ..... hiding from the soap faries! This one I left my base soap uncolored and pulled some out for the swirl. I used the Brilliant Gold from TKB.

How very creative and adorable!

OMG!! I'm sorry it took me so long to get on here and give you my address!! Stunning is all I can say! I would buy those in a heartbeat!

Very nice Donna! I am really trying to convince myself to give whipped soap a try. Hey Louise: in case of brain failure ... can I call you instead of 911?? LOL
