What JoyfulSudz said. I was going to say “what she said” but that’s sexist of me to assume!
What soapy thing have you done today?

@TashaBird, problem? I don't see no problem.
(because if I did, then many of us on SMF would have a "problem.")

Wow--that is an amazing space you have for soapmaking!Making soap (waiting for lye to cool), packaging soap, and watching soap making videos. I may have a problem.
When OCD becomes a super power!@TashaBird, problem? I don't see no problem.

@maryloucb Thank you! My DH made my shelves. But, I do loved how dialed in it feels lately! Now if only it wasn’t freezing down here! (No offense to folks for which they are actually freezing.)

I see only problem-solving. If I had this set up, I would basically live in it.Making soap (waiting for lye to cool), packaging soap, and watching soap making videos. I may have a problem.

Is that moonshine in the Mason Jar?Making soap (waiting for lye to cool), packaging soap, and watching soap making videos. I may have a problem.
Goodness, that is a nice setup.
I wish! I did back to back 4 pull throughs in a row today. First time I’ve done that, and it was a lot!! If I’d been SUI it would not have gone well, at all!Is that moonshine in the Mason Jar?
Goodness, that is a nice setup.
Edit: It’s aloe juice. Not exciting.
I’m super grateful! I lost my work of 30 years due to covid. My DH helped me make this space in the garage, and I can just lose myself in there. Having this soap studio makes me feel really lucky. There’s a utility sink too! I’ll be spending most of the day at that tomorrow.
not glamorous.

Um, ya want glamor? Slip on your heels. If you've ever seen movies of homemakers back in the 50's, they did dishes while wearing a house dress and heels -- like in Father Knows Best and Leave it to Beaver. (Really dating myself here, aren't I.There’s a utility sink too! I’ll be spending most of the day at that tomorrow.

Made carrot soap using @Zany_in_CO’s carrot tissue oil recipe. Also added carrot juice and some rice water. I’m loving the addition of rice water! This is only the second time I did not use a colorant in a soap. Choosing a scent took some thought. Used a combination of BB’s Cocoa Butter Cashmere and NG’s Pumpkin Apple Butter.

I spent the afternoon trying to find Sodium Coco Sulfate. I sold all but one of my shampoo bars and I had planned ahead and placed an order 5 days ago. I found out today my SOS order wont even ship until next week. 10 days just to ship?? I cant find it semi reasonably anywhere else.
