Well I've tried for the second time to make a shampoo. I think that this time I didn't check my calculations as thoroughly as I should have. I believe that I was off on the lye amounts a minute amount. Unfortunately by the time I figured that out. It was already too late for my soap. :) Better luck next time. Next time I'm gonna check my number with three different lye calculators. One just ain't cuttin' it. Sheesh!
Anyhow, I found out from an additional amount of reading that this book (making natural liquid soaps) says that if I try to attempt at making a soap with at pH less than 7 the lye/water and oils will separate into there original selves. Poop! :P That sucks! Well lets see if that's true I guess! :)
Just my everyday life! I love to make soap. I have been making soap for the past 3 years. I am always learning more about making soap. Come learn with me and have some fun along the way. I also draw and paint pictures sometimes. I'm a stay at home Mom of two young girls. They keep me on my toes.

Well here I am! :0)
I think that i will use this spot to write down my random ideas and thoughts inspirational and otherwise.... A place where I can take a serious look at my life decisions and make sure i'm on the right path...A place to "Let what's in my heart out"...A place where people can get to know me better..You see I'm a very good listener so in my life i don't usually do much talking... really!.. So this is a breath of fresh air for me :0)
