    New Directions Aromatics and Saffire Blue

    You know, it's funny because I was just looking at their site as well. They have some seriously better pricing for a lot of goods I need but I know nothing about them.

    Loss sucks

    Thank you all for the kind words. I'm petrified that I'm going to mess up the few mementos we have from her so we've tucked the clay impressions away and certificates until I decide I'm ready to handle the emotional task of putting together a memorial shadow box. The vet clinic did offer to...

    Loss sucks

    I'm not quite sure how I could go about making an ink stamp? The clay print they did is a clay impression. Would you believe it, the person that took her impression left their thumb print in the clay impression as well.... If you have thoughts on how I could turn the impression into an ink...

    Loss sucks

    Apologize in advance - this is long so I don't blame some of you for not reading it all (brevity is not my strong point). I did a bit of emotional unloading elsewhere shortly after this happened but I've found that I'm still not all that over it and talking/typing/repeating it seems to help...

    Gift Box Source Frustration: Narrow, Shallow box needed

    DH bought me a KnK Zing for my bday and I was really excited for the possibility of making my own boxes. I did just that. I made 2 dozen boxes....and I hated it. Folding and gluing all those boxes was the worst thing I've ever done with packaging.

    I got a new toy!

    I actually wanted hot pink but his powder coater only did industrial coating so he didn't have it available. Bud sent me to Nuture Soap's website but I really just wanted his. I know Carrie takes care of her customers but for the price, I feel I got much more. Congrats!! It's always fun...

    I got a new toy!

    Surprisingly, the suppliers website just says "accelerates but still allows for swirling. Otherwise performs nicely with CP"...but ALL of the reviewers that used it for CP said they got soap on a stick, FO separation, etc. I usually put a mark on the top of the label for any of my FO's that...

    I got a new toy!

    Well, I still love my soap cutter. It's sitting on the kitchen counter because I don't have anywhere else to store it at the moment. Came down this morning to see my soap and was irritated, then looked up and saw my soap cutter and instantly saw little hearts floating all around it :D *sigh*...

    I got a new toy!

    When I unmolded it oils were leaking everywhere. The colors in the soap aren't actually solid (if i touch them they cave in). The whole bar is waxy and stinks. The recipe I used for this is one I've been using for about a year now but the only difference is that I subbed the water for aloe...

    I got a new toy!

    OMG, DH would have just died if I had started calling it "My Precious" He's a huge LOTR fan (I married a nerd...) Well, cut my first loaf with the cutter and i LOVE the cutter. The soap was compete rubbish though even though the swirl turned out pretty but i will probably trash the soap

    Colorado Soapers?

    Haha I'd be lying if I said I knew any of what you were talking about. Snappy, any place in mind? Or we can get together and soap

    I got a new toy!

    It's my new bud tank cutter! I've already cuddled the crap out of it for like 10 min. DH thought it was weird that I was holding it whole time he was talking to me about his day...

    I got a new toy!

    My new toy arrived today (after a terrible day at work it couldn't have been any better to see this box sitting out front). Care to guess? Hint... It is cp related
