I went on a wee bit of a shopping spree this morning on Etsy. I bought this creative soap from the MagicHands Workshop in California. The soap is using our very own Winter Grapefruit.

and this:

I couldn’t justify yet another Letterpress card set so soon after my last binge. But …. I did. In my mind, the fact that I sent out two “Congratulations” cards yesterday and two “Thank You” cards today means that I am almost out of cards and need more. It’s not a legitimate justification but PistacioPress‘s beautiful work tipped me right over the edge.

In other news, the Blog Direction Survey has been completed by about 20% of our active daily readers. Right now, over 80% of you are asking for more soap projects and only 16% want more candle tutorials. I wish I would have had this information before I knocked myself out with massage candles this weekend (ha ha). But, if you’re reading this and thinking, “Hey! But I really want to learn about candles!” and don’t want just 20% of the readers to decide the direction of the blog – make sure to fill out the two-question survey located here.

Finally, Playing with Soap has a great tutorial on making soap with Beet Juice. Notice the before and after colors?
