Soap, Soap, and More Soap

















































My oldest daughter makes the cutest jewelry. I loved how these donut earings came out! ;0)


My first diaper wreath....I think I'll do the next one differently. I still have to add baby things to this.



Hot Fudge Brownie soap! This had our house smelling like I had made something really yummy! My kids were extra disappointed when they found out it was only soap. ;0(



My first diaper carriage. I was just experimenting with the diapers I had left over from doing the wreath.






Watermelon Taffy bars....yummo!






I have been making soap like crazy for Christmas and hopefully a craft show. If we don't get to do the craft show, I'll be selling like a crazy soap woman for Christmas! It has been fun using lots of different fragrance and essential oils. I made a bug repellent soap the other day using only essential oils and that was so much fun. The kids and I tested it out yesterday outside in mosquitoville....they didn't even bother us! Yayyyy, it seems to really work well. Today I'm making some shaving soaps that can be for men or women.


Well, the summer has really gone by fast for us. We only have a couple of weeks before we will begin our school year. I'm sad it's ending because of all the things we haven't gotten to do yet but I'm excited to start reading with my girls and going through our school days together. We have some fun things planned for our school year too. I'm also looking forward to fall weather with all the falling leaves and windy days. I love the changing seasons.


Hope you all are having a great weekend!
