Catching Up

This post is picture heavy, but I thought I would catch you up on the things I have been working on this past month. Even though it feels like I haven't done very much soaping wise, as I look back on these pictures, I realize I have been busier than I thought! 

My daughter wanted to try doing some shows and we have done 3 together so far this year, she is becoming quite the little soapmaker! Her specialty is this popular Slushie Soap, kids love them!



I had some leftover gumdrops from the gingerbread house, so I made these Sugar Plum cake slices:


We made Cookie Dough soap:


Some Rose soaps:


And these festive soaps…love this color combination!


Candy Cane soaps:

 

We found these great molds at the dollar store:
  



I’ve been working on cupcake soaps:



And putting together Christmas gift sets for special orders:


I received some stunning soap, all the way from Greece! Beautiful soaps, you must check out Mary’s Facebook page!


I hope you are enjoying this Christmas season, it’s such a busy time of year. I have one more day of selling tomorrow, and then I am hoping to work on finishing up my shopping and baking list and peacefully enjoying the rest of the season! I hope you are all having a wonderful Christmas season too!

  10. I was diagnosed as HEPATITIS B carrier in 2013 with fibrosis of the
    liver already present. I started on antiviral medications which
    reduced the viral load initially. After a couple of years the virus
    became resistant. I started on HEPATITIS B Herbal treatment from
    ULTIMATE LIFE CLINIC (www.ultimatelifeclinic.com) in March, 2020. Their
    treatment totally reversed the virus. I did another blood test after
    the 6 months long treatment and tested negative to the virus. Amazing
    treatment! This treatment is a breakthrough for all HBV carriers.
