I suggest not sitting out the shows. It's bad economic times when people will go to markets to buy their holiday gifts, and not pick up something from the mall. This could be very good for you. It's also a good time for homemade/grass roots as people are pretty anti-corporate these days. But...

I make my own with supplies from onlinelabels.com. I don't often do soap, but all sorts of B&B and I've found I'm miserable at cutting sheets myself. OL has plenty of sizes. After I print them up I spray Crylon on them. The products last through showers without the print running. It's the...

That's what I use as well. Most of mine I don't use a sweetner, just EOs, but if I'm going for a flavor like "coffee" I use Sugar Kisses.

You can't sanitize at home unless you're using glass. Trust me on this, every thread I've read on moldy lotion, and from my own personal experience, reusing plastic will give you the yukkies. I've done batches of lotion in new containers with a tester for me in a used, thoroughly bleached to...

ooh, these are nice! Darn, why did you do that to my credit card ;-) I don't "need" more molds. But these are nice. hmmmm... Yeah, didn't think of the rice. my brain doesn't work that way ;-) it's a good idea.

OMG, I'm so glad you asked this question! I ordered my first set from goplanetearth. They haven't arrived yet, but when the do I'll let you know. One thing to think about: I got impatient, and yesterday when walking home I came across an art shop. They had cheap tray molds at about $3 a...

I've seen Madagascar everyday for the last 2 months.

Mean people on message boards. okay, mean people in general. Or rude, or both.

Do a search on "Carb Cycling". It's basically a few days of low carbs, then one day of normal carb eating. It's tough, but it was the only thing that got the last few pounds off for me.

The one that comes to mind is from Ayn Rand's Fountain Head. "Happy Men are free men". The context/meaning is that when you are happy no one can make you doubt yourself. It's very true, if you've noticed when you are happy you don't care what other people think about you.

Bummer, I got lumped into the older category! I'm 36. But I haven't gotten used to it yet. In my mind I'm still 34.

LMAO Tab! I bought a couple molds and M&P goats milk today. I broke. I just couldn't hold out any longer. What pushed me over is wanting to make something for DH, I figure I owe him for all the conversations/monologues he has to listen to on my products! He's not a lipbalm guy, and doesn't use...

LOL Honey, but honestly, computers do suck. I've had my horror stories with my own p.c., but this really is taking a loooooong time. What other Forums are you on? I like SMF, but it's a little less active than the Dish.

Following up on FitMommyof2's question of what do you wrap your M&P in...I'd like to make some as part of a present for friends. Tabatha suggested Saran Wrap, but can you shrink wrap them as well??? It might be a PITA, but I love using my heat gun!!!

Tabitha, that is the best cost break down I've ever seen. Thanks so much!!! only one day on this board, and you're the one I keep reading LOL! BTW, awesome question. I am/was exclusively a lipbalm maker. Then started toying around with lotion. now I'm thinking of M&P (after saying I would...
