RobinInOR Posted March 24, 2006 Share Posted March 24, 2006 Yippee! It's Friday, one week closer to being out of a job Next Fri is my last day. Happy and scared at the same time, I am *not* looking forward to pounding the pavement looking for work..This weekend though it's soaping - lavender mint, some rose, patchouli, clemantine. Maybe some more cranberry. Starting to pack up a wholesale order, so lots of labeling. And still playing with bath oils - I've got it clear like I want, now I think I'm going to thicken it up a bit. Looks a little too much like pee in a bottle for me Hope someone out there will have some spring weather! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crafty1_AJ Posted March 24, 2006 Share Posted March 24, 2006 In soy candles, I need to pour Love Smell, Cappuccino and Sun-Ripe Raspberry to restock. I need to pour a tester of a citrus-herb blend I want to add to my candle line this spring. Also, it's back to the drawing board on my patchouli candle ... my first tester bombed. LOLIn my soap pot? Just cut a triple-swirl Sandalwood blend soap into bars, as well as a green & white layered bar scented in Gardenia. Next I want to soap a lavender-eucalyptus eo blend and a sweet orange-patchouli blend.Desperately need to label soap boxes too! And I still need to make a batch of unscented lotion for a friend. Ack.

AngelaVA Posted March 24, 2006 Share Posted March 24, 2006 I got my soy samples this week and have been too busy to play with them. So for me, I'm pouring 2-3 testers each in Ecosoya CBadv, 135 and C-3. My problem now is trying to decide which Fos to test with, lol. I just love them all and can't decide. I also still have some new fragrances to test in my J50. The jars are poured and ready to go, but I haven't been home enough to light them up.

geekrunner Posted March 24, 2006 Share Posted March 24, 2006 I'll be pouring a replacement candle for a friend who said it cracked, but actually was broken by an 11 YO girl they were sitting. Oh well I can reuse the wax for testing other jars Visiting my daughter an SIL Saturday also, and the MIL and FIL too. Probably take them all candles too!Of course all the usual wick testing. And lectoring for the first time at church sunday morning! I'll be doing the second reading from Ephesians 2 4-10. Wish me luck!geek Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shell1226 Posted March 24, 2006 Share Posted March 24, 2006 I have to pour about 200 tins to finish up a fundraiser and start labeling everthing. I need to pour Sweet Pea and White Tea and Ginger. Two of my faves. The goal is to have everything labeled and ready to be picked up by Sunday night. That'll put me one week ahead of schedule and I can start to pour some tins to prepare for the large fundraiser that just started. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fire and Ice Posted March 25, 2006 Share Posted March 25, 2006 Nothing yet in my pot. I have bonding with my new German Shepherd female to do this weekend. Sales are still in the pits so though I've got candles that need poured, I'll be waiting a bit. I scared that while I'm in the basement, this dog will start knawing on the logs or something. I don't want her in the basement as I think I would trip over her. My cat is not in a good mood and he's down there hidding! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CraftyChris Posted March 25, 2006 Share Posted March 25, 2006 Finishing up 2 fundraisers is top priority. The schools need delivery for Monday am. I thought I was going to have to read resumes all weekend, but I found the perfect person, and hired her today, and she'll train starting on Thursday.Then I have 2 weddings I need to start on, and I have 2 HUGE schools (500 sellers and 790 sellers) that hand in April 10th, so stock up time!A few wholesale orders and we are home free!To be honest though, I really don't work weekends anymore (besides having to go pour for a few hours for those fundraisers), so that list is for Monday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
