Has anyone had any of this lovely rain. For once we received some here and I am happy to say have green grass popping up all over the ground. Don't care if it is only weeds it is green and in my book beautiful. We had 60 mls yesterday and I had to pump water from the 2 smaller tanks up to the Big back tank so I save it for the garden. Do hope those who needed it also got some.
I started back in the soap shed this month but must have not been concentrating as I forgot to add the essential oil in one batch so had to tip it out of the mould into the pot and quickly add the oil then stir it lightly as I wanted to try and keep some of the 2 coloured swirl. It worked but not as pretty as it originally looked. The 2nd one I made a double batch of Goat Milk Lavender Soap and once again did such a lovely swirl with the lavender colour through the creamy milk colour. Imagine my horror when I went to the fridge the next morning and there before my eyes was the Goat Milk I should have used. I must admit I did wonder why the amount I made did not fill the 2 moulds and I had to do some quick thinking to make the bars the correct size by pushing the mix up from one end of mould and filling the cavity with a couple of empty bottles I had sitting there to hold the board in place.
I shredded all the soap and did a re batch but it is so ugly now and a far cry from my lovely swirl so guess it will be come house soap and we will use it up eventually.
Did you see the new soap that went up for sale this month. It is fragranced with Freesia so I have done a very soft pink in the pot swirl to match the sweet lovely fragrance and I think it is beautiful.
