More soapmaking.

Soz not got any more pics sorted yet, but I've been busy making rose bath melts, similar to the lavender ones. Also I've made some Chanel No.5 cupcake soaps. They look really cute even if I do say so myself. Also made some lavender bar soaps and lemongrass, honey & oatmeal bar soaps. I'm going to wrap these in mulberry paper and decorate them with girly bits and pieces like marabou feathers, ribbon roses and gold swirls.

I'm going to make some more stuff tomorrow, Lily Of The Valley cupcake soaps, Mango bath melts and I want to make a start on a strawberry and cream large soap flan.

I'm waiting for some toy stuffing to arrive so that I can finish off the door hangers and drawer scenters. Plus I've got a new roll of cellophane coming too. I've been going a bit Ebay mad lately, I've also ordered a gorgeous pink wire 3 tier cake stand, the cupcake soaps will look great displayed on them.

I promise I'll take some pics tomorrow, still can't find the digi camera. Hunted everywhere, guess it will turn up in it's own good time :0(

As requested ;0)

Hurrah, I have pictures. There are not very clear as I had to use the digi camcorder, can't find the bloomin' digi camera anywhere.


So here are my attempts at sewing. These are Shabby Chic lavender door hangers and pillows. 2 are missing as my sister in law commandeered them the other night! As you can see they are displayed on the gorgeous hat box I bought in TK Maxx the other week.

Here are some that need to be stuffed and finished off. I sewed them up this morning.




At last I've made some more soapy stuff. Yesterday I rebatched the Angel Wings soap as the colour had faded. So now it is a deep greeny blue and of course smells of the v. expensive perfume Angel. At £2.25 a 100g slice, what a bargain! LOL
The little cake things are actually bath melts made with cocoa butter, they fizz and disperse the butter in your bath. You only need one per bath. The front 3 are unfragranced and the ones behind are fragranced with Lavender.
