In today’s soap pot was lavender rosemary.
This soap reminds me of the first all natural soap that I bought for myself! It was yellow to tan in color and the smell was to die for. Just by the looks and the scent I knew goodness was spilling out from those bars! Essential oils do something for me. It is as if they spark my energy and my thought processes, and always my memory (but I cannot quite place it). I absolutely love working with essential oils!
Have I said that I also love to sew? I wear this simple apron in the soap shop, and sometimes in the kitchen. Of course, I had to use funky country fabric, and red ric-rac on the pockets! It was not difficult to make. It loops over the neck and ties at the side. The pockets help me with carrying keys, the mobile phone, or anything else that I like to keep close at hand.
I do not sew often. Sewing is one of those projects where I throw the hands up and say, “What can I do in my life? What do I really have time to do?” Sewing is not something that I can fit in easily. I love to cook as well. When I cook from scratch I toss in a little of this, a pinch of that, and generally it comes out pretty darn good. I would love a gourmet kitchen (even though I am tickled and satisfied with the one that I have), but again, we only have 24 hours to a day and only so much time to devote to the things that we elect to do!
A side view, simple ties, simple lines.
Enjoy your day!
Lavender AND rosemary, I know that smells heavenly…no, herby!That would be like time in my herb garden, but getting clean instead of digging in the dirt.
Know what you mean about considering what one has time for,and sometimes I guess that means we have to decide not to a worthwhile project because there are more needful things to do.
I keep dog biscuits in my apron pockets too.
Like the joke about not placing your memory.( it is a joke, right?)
Lavender and rosemary. How interesting. The soap looks really nice and creamy.
Delores, the soap cut very nicely. It smells terrific.
There just is something about certain scents. They are a blessing to the mind.
Kathy, yes, exactly. We have to set priorities, determine the wants and needs. Sewing is a want…far from a need.
Thank you…now for a power nap. The eyelids are heavy!
That apron is adorable.
And I can almost smell that soap from here.
I know what you mean about not enough time.
Maybe I should schedule my extra curricular activities. A day for each.
