Hello! This is the 12 installment of the Order, which means we have reached our one year anniversary! We all hope your summer is winding down beautifully and many happy memories have been made. Please join us in answering the question of the month:
What were some of your favorite scent experiences this summer?
I've actually gotten back into soapmaking in the past few months, and I've got to say rediscovering my favorite soap blends has got to take the cake over the melting I've done. I have this small piece of cherry & vanilla soap that I found from my pre-Diana soapmaking days and oh, my! I forgot how awesome this is. I feel like a mad scientist working with new oils and butters and colorants. Plus, sitting down with all my little scent bottles and experimenting with how one works with another is something I really enjoy! I'm going to cut my answer of here before I write a novel about making soap LOL!
The Bathing Garden has some seriously ornate wax tarts and if anyone can do them justice, it is Sunnee. Hop on over to her blog to read all about her latest The Bathing Garden order and see which ones stand out. And oh happy day!!! The Bathing Garden is open and has been open for orders for several months now.
Liz at Furianne found a lost waxy treasure and melted it recently. Check out what gem she found that is STILL performing after over two years old!
Want the Bath & Body Works candle experience without the Bath & Body Works price tag? Deb hauled a few candles that fit the bill and will fill her home with fall cheer this year. You will want to read this!
Lolo gets to smell with the Rock is cooking... whenever she wants. And if you want to smell it too, as well as look at his cutie pie mug all over a candle... you must see what Lauren has recently acquired. Get ready for fits of "I NEED THAT!"
Candles From The Keeping Room recently moved over to Etsy, temporarily, and Julie placed an order on the first opening there. Read all about how the ordering process went and the abundance of scents she picked here. You can tell she went wild!
Michelle recently received and reviewed a Super Tarts sampler. Her precise descriptions and on point nose will leave you scouting for some of these scents. Find out what sampler she got and her thoughts on it.
I love it -- both the fact that you're getting back into making soap and the cherry/vanilla scent combo in a soap. I hope you continue and open up shop one day :)
ReplyDeleteI loved reading this! I hope you blog about your soap making journey. I have been thinking about making soap for fun a lot lately. My friend Ashley would love your cherry I bet!
