Chocolate Peanut Butter


I've only been a little crafty lately. Just a little. And that little bit is secretive for a baby shower, so I can't share it. So, instead, I'll show you some soap from my last soapmaking experience when Joe was out of town. Chocolate peanut butter soap. It smells like Reese's. I haven't made it in years, and I can't remember why. It smells so good. I just have to wait another two weeks until I can try it.

(The honey blossom and lavender soaps have completely cured, but I haven't tried them yet.)

While I would love the smell of the Reeses soap, I think the honey blossom and lavender sounds to die for :) Do you sell it somewhere? For some reason soap making intimidates me.

OMG- I bet that smells delish! It totally looks like fudge (though I am guessing it does not exactly taste like fudge). I don't know much about soap making and am curious to know what motivates you to make your own? Is it a hobby or more than that (as in, healthier for you than commercial soaps)? I am forever impressed with all that you can fit into one week and still have time to be a great moma to your sweet kiddos.

That soap sounds amazing, and the outfits you've been working on for Sawyer and Spenser are incredible. That cherry fabric? Yeah, Mommy needs a cherry blouse too :0). (and I would have been hiding the scissors as well when she started asking about the haircut)

How do you stop yourself from having a nibble of the soap. I thought it was edible until I read it was soap. Looks very yummy.

Reusable Swiffer WetJet Cloths

Image
I promised myself that, when I bought a box of Swiffer WetJet refills at the wholesale club, it would be the last box I bought. Something had to be done. Now, to be honest, part of the reason was to help the environment, but the other part was because I was tired of running out of those darn things. I took some towels, folded them in half cut them into 5" widths. (The towel was just about 25" or so from side to side when flat.) Then I cut two 5" pieces of elastic and serged it all together. Two layers of toweling and two elastic strips. That's it. (The finished piece was approximately 4.75" x 12.") Within minutes I had a stack of eight. Slide them on and mop away. You will have a clean floor and have saved one more thing from ending up in the landfill. Now, if I can just do something about the cleaning liquid ... Something environmentally-friendly, economical, and won't cause further pain to my arthritic back.

Before ... a $10 thrifted chair ... After ... 1 1/2 cans of spray paint and a little cotton batting and fabric and a staple gun later ... I used Alexander Henry's Sunny Side fabric for the seat. I love the contrast of the red, black and white. Can you say oh yeah ??
