Wrapping soaps [Colleen] ...

September 13, 2004

Yeah, Colleen ~ I love the way your soaps are packaged. They always

look so nice and professional. I still use plastic wrap, and it can be a

pain sometimes. I'm really debating about trying some other method of

wrapping my soaps ... I've never tried shrink wrap. The smell-through

shrink wrap sounds really awesome.

My birthday was yesterday, and my parents gave me a new microwave

to put in my craft area so that I can make soap downstairs now! Woo

hoo! [i do melt-and-pour, in case you were wondering.] Now I just

need more lighting downstairs ~ my craft area is in our basement.

Now, I have to transfer my soap base and some other soaping

supplies to the basement and get things more organized, and I'll have

a really nifty crafting space! I'm excited! Also, one of my friends gave

me a bath gift basket for my birthday ~ it has some Lush bath bombs

and bubble bars inside. OMG, they are fantastic! I used this one called

" Hot Milk, " and it really was like having steamed milk before bedtime. I

slept SO well last night! I know that I shouldn't say this among a

group that makes homemade bath stuff, but wow, Lush stuff is

amazing!

I'm involved in an autumn swap through one of my e-mail lists

[Craftoholics through , in case you're interested in

joining ~ we'd love to have you!], and I plan to make my partner some

autumny bath stuff. I have a Yankee Candle duplicate fragrance oil

called " Harvest, " and I'm thinking that would make a nice soap and

bath salts gift set. Or maybe some bath fizzies. So, that's my next crafty

project.

Celebrating week 13 of my pregnancy today ~ it's going by SO fast!!!
