Soapy Goodness...


A few weeks ago I was able to meet with an online friend. She was sweet, funny, and exactly how I thought she would be. I get tongue-tied around new people and although she wasn't a stranger per se I still couldn't find my voice. Luckily, I think she liked me anyway because we still chat. ;) Anyway, the day that I went to meet her I brought her and my other buddy some soap that I had made. One was a Grapefruit Shea soap with the most yummy ingredients although it smells more like lemon than grapefruit. Darn unrefined shea! I wasn't prepared for the message I recieved the next day...She LOVED my soap and wanted more. How lucky was I to get that chance!!! So I quickly packaged the first bunch that I had and made another batch later that week. Here are a few of the last ones that I made. Dressed in tulle with raffia bows...can they get any cuter? They smell SUPER yummy too! I made her some other goodies to go in the box but I can't talk about them since she hasn't recieved the box yet! Pics to come! :)

For another friend...


Yet another snack! These were extra special because this friend has never received a snack. I was happy and excited to be her first snacker!

For a friend...


These are just a few stitch markers that I made for a friend. She knits and didn't have nice stitch markers for knitting...so I made her these! She was using some little plastic stitch markers so I made her some knitting "jewelry"! :)
