Soap swap!


The very sweet Michelle of Blog of a Soap Pixie asked me a while back if I'd be interested in a soap swap. Of course I jumped at the idea, I mean who wouldn't right?

Thank you to Michelle of course, Carrie Garvin of Under the Willow Soaps, Elizabeth of Whiskey Creek Soap and Natalie of Koinonia




Special thanks to my wonderful sister who not only took in all those goodies above and shipped them to me, but also gave me this awesome makeup kit. I think she said it was for my upcoming craft fairs, but I don't know if I want to share!

  2. There's nothing better than enjoying others's soaps, isn't it? I'm always in diploma between using and watching them!
    And I so envy you for that kit, keep us updated how the experiments go!

    1. You're so right about that Maja! As much as I enjoy using up my mistakes, they get boring after a while whereas other people's soaps, I ooh and ahh every time I use them and think holy cow there are talented soapers.

      I'll definitely do a post once I try out the mineral makeup.

    2. Hahaha, I can's stop LOL-ing! How on earth could I write diploma, instead of dilemma? Thank God you know better than me what I thought!

    3. You're so hilarious! I always blame my spelling errors and tripping over my tongue on being English as a second language. ;)

    1. I am very lucky indeed Gordana! I love having soaps and other bath sundries especially when they're handmade.

    1. I am definitely better at hoarding soaps than I am at using them Nat. I am just fine with using the stuff I make, but seeing someone else's beautiful creations, I just want to stare at it and not use it.

      I am very lucky to have my sister and I tell her that often. :)
