Although I'm sure it isn't really true, I felt like I was just going, going, going non-stop this weekend.
- Shipped off Ebay orders
- Posted stuff on Ebay
- Posted stuff on Etsy
- Made stitch markers
- Made soap
- Finished knitting a scarf
- Did Laundry
- Cleaned out the refrigerator
- Caught up on freelance web stuff
- Worked on my Second Life shop
I had ordered some new soap molds and fragrance oils a couple of weeks ago, and finally got them out yesterday and made soap.
I made:
- Cucumber Melon (the green)
- Coconut Lime Verbena (white)
- Rosemary Mint (swirled green)
- Nag Champa (purple)
- Herbal Orange (orange flecked)
- Lemongrass fish (fish)
The thinner bars tend to warp slightly as they dry, so I turn them over, but I like the way the fishes' tails turn up.
I also made a few new things that I put up on my Etsy shop (and reduced prices on a few things), some of which were these space alien stitch markers:
That one at the bottom right looks like it's trying to get away . . .

The soaps are sooo pretty! Good enough to eat. Umm...well, maybe not. hehe
everything looks wonderful! I found some terrific soap molds (stamps?) at Michael's that I use on polymer clay for mokume gane, in flower shapes, hearts, stars, and some kind of mosaic shape. Check it out if you haven't already... I paid $5 for a set of five, I think.
Willa, I love your soaps, they are so pretty and the fragrances sound heavenly. Where did you find your fragrances? I haven't seen any like those in Michaels or the Hobby Lobby. Those are about the only stores in my area that sell soap making supplies.
I bought the fragrance oils online from Brambleberry and Snowdrift Farms:
