How to Make Your Own Bodywash

One of the blogs I follow called Totally Tutorials had an entry from Life Blossoms on How to Make Your Own Natural Body Wash. It is very simple because it is made with only 2 ingredients: Castille Soap and Water. But to be honest I am wondering how "Natural" the Kirks castile soap is and if you can really claim that it is natural. If you made your own than that would be a different story. Also the recipe calls for water. It does not distinquish if you should use distilled or regular water from the tap. But my instincts say to use distilled. Since I use distilled water for my lotions recipes I have it on hand plus it is really inexpensive to purchase from the local grocery store.

Bunny & Basket Melt and Pour Soap

Easter is upon us. I cannot believe it is here! I saw this melt and pour project called Bunny & Basket Melt and Pour Soap in the recipe section of the Wholesale Supplies Plus website. Somehow the bunny soap reminds me of a marshmallow peep! Anyway, this is an intermediate project which should take about an hour to complete. You might have to wait a little longer to allow for drying time. But once you are finished this project, you should have (12) 5.3 oz bars. This would be a great project to do with the kids!
