Randomness




I'm always practicing hair stuff to do on my girls' hair. I did these styles a couple of weeks ago and they came out nice.


I have made several candles lately and have been thinking about listing them on my etsy along with my soaps but so far haven't done that. Hopefully this weekend I can get everything listed and maybe make another batch of soap too.


My oldest daughter is my photographer. I love the pictures she takes for me and I thought this one was too cute.


This is my birthday cake scented candle.



Sugar Cookie soy wax tart...





More sugar cookie tarts...


Sissy....


Goat's milk heart cupcakes.......



Sugar Cookie Candles...




These are some of the Christmas soaps I've been working on..I love the way these snowflakes came out. They're so shimmery and I scented them in a fruity fragrance called Indian Summer.




Soap cake slice scented in purple hooters...


I had no idea how much I loved the fragrance of Sandalwood until I soaped this batch. I know it's more of a masculine scent but I think I'll be using this when it cures. It has such a nice powdery scent and I was pretty happy with the swirls.






These are some of the other Christmas soaps I've been working on. They are scented in Tinsel and smell just like peppermint candy.








Me and my girls aka The Hen & Her Chicks ;0)...




I am absolutely loving the scent of these bars. I've had them curing for several weeks now and they are still making my dining room smell so good. It's the first thing I smell when I walk in the door. Also, when I was in a department store the other day, I smelled the Be Delicious perfume and decided that this soap fragrance has my soap smelling very much like the real thing. ;0) Sometimes, I've noticed the dupes of these perfume fragrances turn into a totally different scent when you cold process soap. So I'm very happy when they don't morph into something else!




My Chanel No. 5 type cupcakes and bars.....



The weather is getting cold and it's beginning to feel like the holidays. I am looking forward to cooking for Thanksgiving and putting up our Christmas tree. I love this time of year.


I'm also getting my gift sets together to start selling them for Christmas. I'm hoping to make another batch of snowflakes and gingerbread men soaps this weekend.


Thank you for stopping by! Hope you are having a great week. ;)
