Its here! Its here!...AND...I'm and idiot.

I got my prize from Amber's pay it forward contest today!!! Its soooooooooooo cool = ) Yael is modeling the apron she made and JD has the lunch pail of other goodies.

Here it all is minus the apron. I wore it ALL DAY. My only other apron has snowmen on it so I've been dying for something new. Amber sent each of her soaps so now I know how milled soaps are supposed to be.
I was so inspired by her soaps I made some oatmeal, milk and honey with Bramble Berry's Dark Chocolate fo. I think I'll eat this soap instead of clean with it, hehe.
I also made Amanda's base soap for the kit I'm sending her. I made a little extra to try out my new silicone flower mold.

And for the DUH moments...I realized after I made the base soap that I was going to send 2# instead of 1#. I weighed the base soap I already have and its nearly 2#. I made it 2 1/2 weeks ago and could have sent it already. DUH.

I ordered jars for additives I'm sending in the milled soap kits I'll be selling on etsy. I couldn't believe how cheap they were and was shocked when they came 2 days after I ordered them. Then I found out why they were so cheap...they don't have lids. DUH.

Well crap! Don't you hate that... now you have to place another order for the lids.

Yay! I'm glad you like it! And I'm sorry about your lidless jars. :(
