Tutorials on soapmaking, bath fizzies, lotions and more
Warm weather is perfect for outdoor activities, like swimming and gardening. After a long day of fun in the sun, it’s nice to relax. The Aloe Bubble Bath Bombs are a great way to unwind. They create big bubbles with the addition of SLSA, and soothing properties from aloe extract. The fizzies get a fresh and sweet scent from Basmati Rice and Kentish Rain Fragrance Oil.
Springtime is full of fun activities like gardening and crafting. The warmer weather is also ideal for cleaning. While it may be as not as fun as other spring activities, I always feel better when things are cleaned and organized. The following recipes and tips can help make the process a little easier, and maybe even a little enjoyable. =) I’m right in the middle of the book “The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up” and I haven’t even gotten through the first 10% and I’m already inspired to clean, organize and throw things out! =)
Soaping can be a messy process. There are several ways to clean after making cold process soap, including washing the dishes right away. You can also let your tools sit (unattended, on a high shelf so little hands can’t grab them) for 48-72 hours. During that time, the soap saponifies and hardens, allowing you to scrape it out and wash your equipment. Learn more in the Soapy Session Clean Up Guide.
