you know your addicted to making soap when.....

[Moonshea Botanicals]

When you see a shopping bag, think it's oil for soapmaking and get really excited. Only to find out it's a head of cabbage.

Sad but true

I'm desperately trying to figure out what sewing and knitting supplies to sell to come up with the bank to support my habit and to make room on the shelves for all the pretty soaps.

No, no, no and NO!
Do NOT sell your sewing and knitting supplies!

Isn't there anyone else's stuff you can sell first??? :think:

.. when you go out and buy a bottle of olive oil just to get you through the night..

 

[Second Impression]

Your essential oil bottles outnumber your spice jars. I like to cook and bake so that took a while to accomplish

When soap calc is the first tab you open whenever you open an internet browser.

When you take your kid's report card off the refrigerator to hang up soap recipes.

My web page opens to google and then the first thing I have been opening has been this forum... that might say something too ;-)

Sadly, as the only grown-up in the house, there really isn't. The boy child might get miffed if I sell his legos... And the girl child? Well, there isn't much of value that a 4 year old has.

When you go to scrub the shower and find that there are 7 bars of soap in there......all different kinds. LOL!

You mean the end-cuts and ones with imperfections, right?

New Thread idea: how many bars of soap do you have in your shower/bath
right now?

NO! :shock: LOL! I mean full bars of soap. We each have our own favorites and then a few others for us all to 'try out'.......just for good measure. And I forgot to even count the 2 crocheted bags that are hanging on the towel rod:shock::shock::shock:

eta that 2 of the bars are full sized hand bars.
I second the idea about 'soap bars in the shower' thread

 

[Scentapy]

Well at least your family will use them! My DH still "has to have" body wash. BUT... I have my soap in soap dishes at the bathroom sink and kitchen sink and they do use those.

I agree to EVERYTHING everyone has said. I am glad we all suffer the same side effects. LOL.

My particular favorite is that EVERYTHING is a possible ingredient. When we go grocery shopping, I could care less about groceries to EAT... I just want stuff to SOAP with.

I made my first batch of CP soap last Saturday, in the 8 days since, I've produced almost 25 lbs of soap. So, yup, I'm hooked

 

[Valerie Ward]

ooooo ooooo, did he make the mold? My DH would absolutely LOVE it if I made him Dalek shaped soaps!!!

You agree to make Dalek shaped soap only if your 16 year old son will make the mold for you.



He's such a Whovian. XD

 

[Badger]

My nieces would love Dalek shaped soaps also!

Repeat after me:

"Hello. My name is Valerie and I'm a soapaholic, too."


LOL WITH you, not AT you, Valerie! I did the same thing.
Oh wait...I'm still doing that. :Kitten Love: Think I'm needing an intervention here.

Intervention? Why?

I figure it is a productive addiction. I'm not doing heroin or smoking, so things could be so much worse. (Although it probably isn't any cheaper than other vices...)

Okay if he does make a mold and you make this soap I must see it! I can see doing a Tardis, at least that's a box.

He's working on it as we speak. LOL

Oh yes I will post pics. I do think it will be a line of soaps like that....the TARDIS.....a Dalek....maybe a sonic screwdriver (10th Doctor, of course).....and a Adipose cause they are so CUTE!
