elitenaildesign Posted April 1, 2006 Share Posted April 1, 2006 I wasn't sure where to post this but I have a big bag of calendula petals, but have no idea what to use them for. I do M&P and am not sure what scent to color to combine them with. Any ideas? i have looked thru recipes but didn't really find anything.

Grannyscandles Posted April 1, 2006 Share Posted April 1, 2006 I use them in my floral scents and they are to die for. I grind them a bit more so they are in smaller pieced but they are so lovely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michi Posted April 1, 2006 Share Posted April 1, 2006 OOh I have a pic. of some M&P soap I made in the gallery here, I used an EO blend with lots of calendula petals in it. I LOVE it, the petals give the slightest exfoliation properties without being "scrubby". You could use honey FO, or an orange blossom or a spicey citrus, or even chammomile or obviously calendula, or anything that you sniff, that seems like it would fit with the yellow/orange of the petals. Can't wait to hear what you come up with, make sure you take a pic. please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crafty1_AJ Posted April 3, 2006 Share Posted April 3, 2006 I top my Creamy Shea Butter soap with calendula petals. Edited to add pic. It's the top soap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
