I know what you mean about having an FO purchasing ban - I have to use up some FOs before I allow myself to buy more, too. (Something tells me that I will fail to uphold that vow, though.) Thanks, too, for the compliments on the tree photo. My dad spotted those trees when we were driving back from Helen, GA and we stopped to take pictures.LatherBeSoapinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18018716091511424218noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3373649330246824979.post-633973364628628812012-09-23T18:28:34.073-05:002012-09-23T18:28:34.073-05:00Omgosh, I just realized I never commented on this ...Omgosh, I just realized I never commented on this post!

Everyone in my family knows they'll be getting soap from me too for the holidays, but I haven't decided what to do yet. All I know is that there can't be any cinnamon-type scents..believe it or not, nobody in my family likes it!

BB's Hot Cocoa FO behaves beautifully in CP soap, and it smells fantastic. And it discolors to such a wonderful chocolate brown, I didn't even need to color the scented portion! Happy soaping to you, too!LatherBeSoapinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18018716091511424218noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3373649330246824979.post-53143356275798118852012-09-10T07:13:15.337-05:002012-09-10T07:13:15.337-05:00Thank you, Katie!

One of the scents I use every holiday season is Sleigh Ride, it's such a crisp, clean scent. Peppermint, gingerbread and pumpkin are also ones that always seem to make their way into my holidays soaps. Looking forward to seeing more in your series of holiday soaps :) Ceehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13894195914088348516noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3373649330246824979.post-80536188659954699222012-09-09T21:49:27.375-05:002012-09-09T21:49:27.375-05:00They looked absolutely jummy!
