thank you!

buying eo I get many of my essential oils from WF Medical on Ebay, They have quality therapeutic grade EOs and their prices are competitive. I buy most of my EOs from Ebay, I shop for high quality/price, shipping is also better on Ebay. I find many online stores to be ridiculously high priced...

Hi Everyone! My Pagan Pride show (my 2nd) was a resounding success! It may have only drawn 500 people but they were buying! also we vendors made a point of buying from the other vendors. I made way more than i spent incuding my booth rental and got some long awaited items. Yes, I enocurage you...

Hi Tabitha, thank you. and thanks for the great suggestion for sample size soap, that's fantastic! Jackie

thanks Digit, will do that! I just made my very first Etsy sale and I had written that off as a lost cause. You never know! Today is a GOOD day! (Last week I lost my beloved Maltese to liver failure.)

Thanks! I will look that article up.

thank you for your support, yes, I know not to expect too much but I have to make a payday loan just to get the money for the November booth rental. I am dancing on the edge. My home sales are very good, I made $125 in 5 weeks, jsut with the few people I do know, and finally today made another...

My 2nd show will be this Friday and Saturday, August 1-2, and the expected crowd is only about 500 although this is a charity event and targeted towards a specific groupd of people known for thier penchant for natural/aromatherapy products. My booth rental was only $35 so I beleive I will at...

JUly 19-20 Shop Till You Drop Arts & Craft Show in Bossier City Civic Center was a flop, I didn't even make half my booth rental back ($125), there were only about 500 visitors total the two days instead of the 2000 I was told to expect. If I got a dollar for everyone passing my booth with raves...

was a flop but got great feedback on my scents , products, and presentation. Just wish they were opening their billfolds when they visited! That's me and my good friend and assistant, David.[/img]

sandalwood powder update Hi Birdie! Thanks for the input! I made my first one pound goatsmilk sandalwood batch today. I added 1 tablespoon sandalwood powder straight into my melted M & P, added nothing else, not even fragrance. I blended with a fork forever and it pretty much evenly dispersed...

Has anyone had experience incorporating yellow sandlewood powder into M & P? I am thinking I need to blend it with a touch of olive oil so it will blend properly. I'd like to add it to my lotion also. What do you all think? It's a very subtle scent, I may even blend it with something else or...

newbie from Louisiana Thank you everyone! I'm really enjoying my new hobby, it cheers me up even doing research for my scent line. And my apartment smells great!

etsy shop I see you ahve charged soaps! I've been thinking of doing an elements line and charging them before selling. What do you think? I'm doing a booth at the Pagan Pride show in August here and it would be right in keeping!

Thanks! I was thinking about trying their vanilla still. I get enough of a hint of what Black Magic should really smell like so I am pursuing blending EOs and FOs to come up with my own version.

Hi All! I'm new to the board and to soapmaking. would love to CP but have no space for it and have health isues that prevent me. The chemist in me is dying to try CP tho, alas. I live in NW Louisiana, a transplantee from KCMO. I'm looking for a good clean rain FO to use in my fish in a bags...

I am very disappointed in this FO, it is just too weak. I had been warned of NG and that many of their FOs are weak, and it is unfortunate since their shipping is so fast and customer service is excellent. But the end product just doesn't cut it. It makes me not want to try their M & P bases. I...

hello from Louisiana! another newbie here, just wanted to say hi to my neighbor!

I'm real new to soap, just M & P as I have limited indoor space. Soaping is really exciting, something extremely creative I can do and it is so satisfying. I live in Bossier City, LA and am disabled so this gives me something positive to focus on. I will be showing at 2 upcoming craft shows here...
