Scratching an Itch

 The beachy soap is nearing the end of its cure so I'm starting to test it.

So far, so good so it's getting a wrap.

That means the drying racks will be empty and I hate when that happens. That usually sends me into a soap making frenzy but my soap supplies are all over the house thanks to the stash room/soap room re-do that is still very much in progress.

 I was fighting the urge until I had a dream the other night that I was making avocado soap.

 As weird as that sounds it seemed like a good idea. I've got a lot of avocado oil and a small tub of avocado butter that needs to be used up. I also have the last of a bottle of Avobath, the fragrance that Lush uses in their avocado soap.

 It's nothing fancy but it will be soap and it will be full of avocado goodness.

 I've also had time to sit and play with my new summer stamp set so I'm thinking that there might just be a small beachy soap giveaway happening in the next few weeks. Stay tuned.

But first I have to finish the invitations to Daughter's latest baby shower. It's for a friend's baby that got off to a very rocky start. Mother and baby are doing well now so it's finally time to celebrate. Her theme is elephants and wouldn't you know it-I already had the stamp set.
