RobinInOR Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 Happy Autumn Equinox! Happy Rosh Hashanah! Merry Mabon! Or isn't it just a great almost fall day?What scents are you working on, are the shorter, cooler days changing what you like to work with?Sunday will be devoted to lemongrass and ginger, and orange/clove. And a bunch of lip balms I want to make as a gift for my market neighbor - next weekend is the last market day If anyone has a fall show, good luck!

Crafty1_AJ Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 I need to pour mango & coconut, dogwood, and blackberry sage candles. Oh, and the dreaded caramel pralines. :lipsrseal I need to soap lemongrass eo, plus a vanilla batch, a cinnamon buns batch, and a cranberry spice batch.All caught up on lotion bars and whipped shea though, so life ain't half bad. Need to make a batch of candles for a swap, and a batch of lip balms for another. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scented Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 Autumn Sage and Sangria Cobbler are two scents I'm working on. Brown Sugar & Fig is another with some twigs & berries and who knows, but first I have to get through a show Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lorrie Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 I just plain need to make soap. I need to make Oatmeal milk and honey, Lovespell and Tommy. I might even make some more candles just to stock up.Plus I have to deal with a sick kid and husband. Oh yeah, I need to clean out the workshop.

chiptooth Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 I just need to get my rear in gear with almost everything. I have a fall festival coming up on oct. 7th and 8th..at least I think. This will be the first time I'm there as a vendor. They usually set the crafters up in the firehall which is sort of out of the way of the rest of the festival so I chose an outdoor space (keep your fingers crossed with the weather). There were no candle crafters there last year, mostly just like church bazaar type stuff, so I'm hoping I'm bringing something different and make some $$.

Luci Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 Not in the big league like the rest of you. I'm still testing, as agonizing as that can be. However, I just got home from helping a newsbie bunch of Marine Corp guys do a fish fry. They couldn't have pulled it off without us gals, so I'm happy. I'll resume pouring tomorrow, but I just felt like our service guys were more important right now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
