Keeping busy - Couple things I’ve done.

Filed under: soap making, candle making, crafts, Knitting — Holly @ 17:32

My brother and I made some candles and soap the past couple days. It’s kept me pretty sane, thankfully. I started another NIN hat, I tried to knit it in the round but I couldn’t figure out the two colors while knitting in the round, so I just gave up and I’m working it flat. :p I also started another pair of toddler socks for Sly’s sister, I need to get pics of the ones I’ve made and these. I haven’t cast on for my sweater yet, but I’m carrying the yarn around with me, so maybe I’ll do that tonight. Anyway, here’s a couple pics of the candles and soap, and I’m off to the movies! We’re going to see American Gangster, hope it good!

The white ones smell like coconut, the red one smells like rose/honey suckle and the yellow is ginger and lemon (it’s surprisingly nice, and not just because I made it. ;)

I ground up some dove soap and made oatmeal soap, I found a place online that talked about it but I can’t find the link right now so I’ll post it later. It’s very nice but I’ll have to grind it up finer next time, it’s a bit sharp when you’re washing with it. Good for feet or back scrubbing, ifin you ask me.
