Been to Market :0)

Been a while since I posted on my blog, things are getting busy, jugling motherhood, nightshift and a passion for soaping can be quite tricky at times :0).

I had a stall on the lovely Goldcoast of Australia last week and had a ball, It was interesting because I took a few pics of my table and after downloading them realised that I really need to take a look at how I am presenting my wares as it wasn't eyecatching at all. For starters I amgoing to have a look into a printed cloth for my table and my goal or hope for next year is to give up the stress of homemade labels and have some done for me :0). So with that said here are a few pics of my setup.............needs lots of work but hey my next Market post will be about change and improvements :0). Thought I would also post my fav soap at the moment....................Hemp oil soap with Lime EO Mmmmmmmmmmm I am liking this one very much I use it before going off to work as really do feel that the Lime makes me feel invigorated.

Poppyseed Markets

Well I am gearing up to do the Poppyseed Markets on the Goldcoast on the 17th of next month and fingers crossed it will be the market I want to anchor myself into :0) I work fulltime and my best money comes from working the week-ends so looking for an indoor market that I can do once a month, fingers crossed this one fits the bill.
Here is a new one for the market...............This is Chamomile and Calendula................It contains some EO and is supported with Chamomile fragrance form the wonderful Bramble Berry :0)

Just waiting for oils to cool/Brambleberry's Wakeup Rosemary

Im cruising around the net waiting for oils to cool. On the agenda is more Cool Waters and not sure what else guess it will be last minute decision (sometimes they are the best).
I have a number of Brambleberry fragrances that I still have to try and my latest was the wonderful limited edition Wakeup Rosemary which is 30% of essential oils these are Rosemary, Peppermint and Cornmint.

This soaped beautifully and at 1oz per pound it has a great presence :0).

This Weeks Soaping

Tried two new fragrances this week and both are just amazing I don't know if I will be able to give them a full cure before taking to the shower :0)
The first was from Elements and it is the Fragrance Heaven dupe of Lavender baby bathtime and what can I say but yumyum. All who smell it say it is sooooooo a baby fragrance so this should be a great one to take to the Mother and Child orientated type Markets :-)
The next was Bramble Berrys Cold Water and boy what a beautiful fragrance it is, I had read it could be temperamental in CP so had hubby all involved in this one should it start setting up on me...................Well what a dream to soap it took ages to trace, in fact it had me hanging around waiting to sculpt in the mold!!!!!
I sure cannot wait to get this one into the shower :0)

It has arrived :0)

I love to stamp soap and met the most wonderful graphic designer in Etsy chat and she designed a soap stamp for me which I am totally delighted with :0) Now I have to get soaping as have no soap soft enough left to stamp with :0).

Mango and Black Tea

Well I have lately been doing mostly remakes but today sliced off a few slices of my latest Mango and Black Tea.......One of the things I love most about soaping is the fact that even after a fair few logs I still get excited about cutting into a new log to see what it will reveal :0)

Dreamweaver Black Tea

Named this after the lovely Dreamweaver on Etsy chat, from whom I purchased some lovely teas. This is Brambleberrys Black Teas and it is just divine!!!!!
