Another year behind us…
It’s been a busy one. So many projects using a wide variety of media. These are a few of my favorites.
Have a happy and safe New Year! Best to you in 2015.

Good morning…It’s Tuesday already…time for another edition of T stands for Tuesday hosted by Elizabeth.
Once again I have been busy, busy. For starters…I made soap again last week.
I used a new recipe so we’ll see how it turns out in a month.
The days seem to be taken up with creating more Holiday inventory. I have lots of work-in-progress. I get tired of working on the same thing over and over again so I switch off often. I think that’s part of my craft ADD self diagnosis.
There are always more cards to make. I’m obsessed. I love doing these mini collages.
This morning I met a friend for a walk at the arboretum. It was a bit chilly, so I brought my mittens just in case. I hate having cold hands.
My other new obsession is my fitbit.
I’m working really hard to get my steps in each day. It’s nice to be just over 2000 from my goal by 9am. It’s paying off according to the scale.
I’m going to help out my mom in a bit then do some more crafting. What are you doing today?

I was able to remove the blocks or loaves of soap from the molds today.The oatmeal topped one smells so good!!
I cut them into bars and set them to cure for the next month.
I have to say that they already felt “soap-like”.
The next thing I need is a better way to cut the blocks into bars to get a more even, consistent bar. They are all approx the same weight but they are definitely not even.
Can’t wait to do the next batch! I have to make room in the storage room before I do more. Space…it always seems to be an issue.
