I think the starter kit sounds great! Maybe some more advanced "technique" sort of kits as well? Like butterfly swirl, or hanger swirl, or you name it. With an instruction guide? Love the idea of one stop shopping for all my hobbies. :)

Got (mostly) everything together for a batch of pumpkin soap tomorrow. Realized my coconut oil is still packed somewhere and that my digital scale was one of the (thankfully) few casualties of the move. Glad I checked! Off to Target when I get done with work, I guess. I made the pumpkin purée...

I unpacked all of my soaping supplies yesterday and today. After a grueling few days packing the truck and driving a thousand miles and then unpacking the truck! Ahhhh. Soapy plans for this weekend!!!

Packed up the rest of my soap making supplies. Sob. Moving in one week! They will be first unpacked. I just realized there's no way I could get any soap made this week.

Packed some of my soap supplies up. We're moving over Labor Day weekend and have a crazy schedule up until move day. I'm not sure if I'll get to make soap until we unpack. I do know what boxes will be unpacked first!

She's a chestnut agouti. Her fur is phenomenal. Doesn't look that red when it's spun, the bottom part of her hair is white and grey, just red tips. My pretty girl!

Here's my girl, Fawn. :) I love her hair-do! Once we move and get settled (2 more weeks until moving day), I'm going to take a spinning class as I have bags and bags of her fur to spin. Not a ton, because she's a satin angora and they don't produce quite as much fur. But enough to get started with.

I love the bunny pics! :) I have a satin angora myself. Her name is Fawn.

Thank you. That worked. they use some really chemical laden store bought shampoos on them, so I was hoping something a little more natural would be more soothing. Staying away from EOs and fragrances for sure. I'll reconsider, or continue researching to find something really mild if I do decide...

I've been trying to use the search function for it, but can't seem to find anything. I'd like to make a CP process for my neighbors dogs who are my buddies. Can anyone point me in the direction of a great recipe? They do have sensitive skin, so I am looking for something soothing... any ideas...

Stacyspy, those are lovely!!!!!

Made a simple batch of goats milk soap with lavender EO and lavender blossoms on top. Just trying to use up this goat milk!!!! Also quadruple brewed some coffee to try to recreate the espresso brownie soap. It's in the freezer now. Maybe I'll make it tomorrow.

Stop tempting me!!! I'm on a strict no more buying supplies until we move kick. *sigh* Off to check it out. ;)

Tried my first attempt at a mantra swirl. I fear I failed. The fragrance oil really accelerated things. It will smell nice anyway! :). Waiting for a friend to come by and make a goats milk/honey/oatmeal soap with me. We may do any easy peasy one first, so she doesn't feel overwhelmed. Also...

Unmolded and cut my coconut soap. Needs some touch up. Aside from the air bubbles, I like how it looks. Also ordered some new goodies so I can try my hand at lotions. And some new micas. Must stop shopping now!
