    Default soapmaking is my new hobby!

    okay so, all this talk about lush made me crave eccentric bath goodies. i have no lush near me, and i'm kinda on a "no buy" due to my upcoming move (but i'm allowing myself a few xmas lush purchases) so i decided to make my own!

    alot of my attempts have failed... but not one.

    i call it "woodsy whip", because it won't harden to the mold, it's just fluffy soap! i put it all in a container and use it that way. it smells like clean firewood i love my creation!

    That's awesome. I've been wanting to get into soapmaking for awhile.
    I also want to try making my own bath bombs, it looks easy enough.

    I just haven't had the time to go out and buy all the spplies.
    I think I would really love doing it tho, I love making my own homemade beauty products.

    Let me know how your progress goes. Maybe I can learn from your mistakes...although I bet the failed attemps are half the fun.

    Have you checked out craftster.org?

    They have a bunch of yummy recipes and stuff on the message boards there. Have fun and keep up the creativity :-)

    yes, failed attempts are the most fun i've had so far.

    i just got done making some peppermint lime bath bombs, i'm actually suprised how they are turning out. they are off yellow with a blue heart on top (i did that with coloring)

    ^^Take pictures!!

    I really wanted to make my own bombs at one point. But I figured I'd buy all the stuff, try once, then it would take up space in the closet. So I never bothered.

    Try googling "bath bomb recipe" and you should find a bunch of different recipes.

    i will take pics, eventually... i'm a little shy because they are def looking home made at this point...

    i did make grinch colored stars that i am hoping will turn out like lush bubble bars... but we will see if they have the same effect.
