    The L store

    Went to the mall over the weekend and noticed that a L*** has appeared. DH and I went in just to see if anything sparked any good ideas. The place creeps me out now! All of the piles of unwrapped things and uncovered bowls of stuff. I already didn't buy most of their hype before starting...

    Favorite Loaf Molds?

    I've been reading many of the threads on here and on other forums about what kind of molds people like and now I'm even more confused. Some people swear by silicone and others hate it. The same with HDPE and acrylic. I don't think I've found anyone yet who hates wood except for hating to line...

I made my first batch of CP soap a few weeks ago and have been working on bath salts, bath bombs and soon to start on body butters as soon as more supplies get here. I eventually...
