The last few days have been one craft-packed weekend.
It started on Friday night when Courtney (from Bramble Berry Customer Service) and I headed to Otion and Esteem Pilates to do a private mineral make up making party. Our table had space for 3 women to make their own customized eye shadow and we were packed! In fact, Courtney and I talked and taught so much that we were both lost our voices.
All of the mineral make up ingredients lined up nicely before the chaos began.
While most of the women opted for recipes we had out that were 100% natural like the Light Brown or Sparkle Bronze found in the “Mineral Make Up Guide“, one brave soul opted to try for a dark green color with a few of our mostly natural colorants. She ended up with a bright kelly green that she was thrilled with.
That’s the beauty of the DIY Eye Shadow Kits. You can make whatever color you’re in the mood for.
Then, Otion had a busy day yesterday, making children’s bath fizzies and setting up their new Cream Cheese Frosting (fragrance) display. Ashley at Otion got very creative with our Foaming Bath Butter and Melt and Pour soap.
Check out her cupcake and frosted sugar cookie creations. And yes, they all smell like delectable Cream Cheese Frosting soap.
She also did a Cow Soap Display with our new Cartoon Cow mold. In her attempt for ultra realism, she even carved out little hay barrels out of soap to make the cows feel more at home in their handmade pen. NOTE: The cow mold has been discontinued. You can make something similar with the 6 Cavity Sheep Silicone Mold.
Finally, our custom Oatmeal, Milk & Honey molds just arrived and I had fun playing with them this afternoon. I haven’t even popped the soaps out but I can’t wait to share them with you. The mold was wonderful to soapcraft with. It had deep crevices and indentations to ensure full and complete detailing.

Those cookies and cupcakes look adorable! One day, i’ll have to get around to making some.
There IS a new mold – our Oatmeal, Milk & Honey mold. It's yummy and really easy to craft with. =)
Did I hear someone say a NEW Bramble Berry Soap Mold???

Bet it smells just like a bakery at Otion right now.
Funny…Heidi noticed the hay bale too! Of all the cute soaps there, i thought that was the cutest touch. 😉
The cupcake soaps are very nice. The frosting looks so real. Loving the cows…..how cute.

I LOVE your mineral make-up kit. I have a date with 2 girl friends to do some make-up play time!

All the soaps look so cute and the cream cheese frosting ones look good enough to eat!
How did Ashley make the cupcake soap tops (round) like that? And what mold did she use for the cherries on top? I would love to know!
Those soaps are way too realistic! If they were here I’d probably try to take a bite ;0)
The hay bails are so cute!
Cute cows!!! I love the detail.
