Hello!
I’ve had precious little time to make batches of my own soaps… so my stock is dwindling with all the Christmas sales.
However… its not like I haven’t been making/supervising!
Three workshops…
Lots of lovely people coming to learn about soapmaking
I let people branch out a bit with designs since I am there holding hands
But I encourage them to go home and make a plain batch to get the hang of it on their first run solo
A lot of fun colourful stuff from this group!
People are enjoying having a go painting with the gold mica too 🙂
Another ‘Phoenix Rising’ demo soap… that one sells well so why not re do it?
Then I did a soap workshop for 4 friends at home.
Bit of a ‘thanks for supporting me and doing workshops’ kind of event.
Plus it was nice to hang out too
The hardest part of it all was clearing our dining room table!!!
Such a nice big convenient surface…
The ladies had a heap of fun choosing their colours and designs
I chuckled about the fragrance choice… three of the four chose Japanese Honeysuckle!
It is one of my favourites… and I don’t take that to my workshops. (Gotta have some secrets I guess)
We had fun with designs
I didn’t get a lot of ‘proper’ photos – things were…um.. a bit rushed that week
I think I had three workshops and one market within 8 days
It sort of felt I was continually loading and unloading the car with soap stuff
I didn’t get any snaps of the cut version, as I took it to the workshop for my friend to cut there!
And moving right along to the last workshop…
A mother and daughter team made their soaps with all natural ingredients – clays and essential oils.
So lovely and subtle and beautiful
To the complete opposite with some wild pinks
I really enjoyed this white and natural soap colour mix
And a beautiful one pot swirl with the purple!
In my demo soaps for cutting for the last two workshops I used patchouli ess oil. And just reversed the colours in the design. So now I have a nice matching lot curing (A bit groovy?)
And my last show-off demo soap.
Wanted some fun light hearted colours.
So there you go… a million soaps!!
Now… to carve out some time for me to start the big restock!!
Cheers!
