Coffee calms nicely. Just make sure you get the rum ratio correct
Glad to hear you're ok - the bosses car can be fixed or replaced; much harder to do that with humans!

I'm a happy bunny today. I just got a huge parcel with loads of lovely soap and lip balm making ingredients in it; peach kernal oil, shea butter, cocoa butter, palm oil, coconut oil and lots of dinky lil 10ml pots for lip balm and some 20ml pots for my special anti bacterial cream. I've made a tester lip balm, just waiting for it to cool and set, see how it turns out but I'm itching to get the cold process stuff underway and I can't til the kids go to school tomorrow. The thought of my little troubled one in the same house as an active caustic soda solution is not a happy one. But oooooh, I'm all impatient now!
I know how to make beer soap, if that helps?

'Afternoon.
Is beer soap edible? My fiance now wants to know how to make it. She's got alot into alchemy after reading about the Saponifier of Correggio.

It's not hard, just use the flat beer of your choice instead of water when making the caustic soda solution for CP soap. Simples
Go and get all of the halloween costumes and robes? I have a full set of cossies now, got the shadow wyrm this morning. So I'll be working on robes next - I'm stockpiling yellow and blue crystals like mad!
That quest is not for me. Which is why I paid loads of gold to a guildie the other day for blue crystals. Some things I have no problem grinding, and doing over and over again. Other things I can`t really stand - and this quest is one of them. I am so glad UO lets me just buy stuff
Think I perhaps should take out a pet for a spin. I was able to survive Bedlam last week, for multiple minutes. And when the screen went grey, as it normally does, I even managed to head back in and get the corpse. First time, ever! That place is evil...

Tell me, o gurus of stains and such....
If I buy a whole boatload of bolts of cloth, or, in a fit of excitement, weave a whole boatload...
Then can I dye them with fire plant stain?
and will the resulting cloth be fire coloured like bod reward cloth?
And what about white stain?
I know that bolts can be dyed with a normal dye tub.
Just wondering... Has anybody tried this at home yet?

well...
You cant stain :-
bolts of cloth
cut/combined cloth
wool
cotton
yarn
thread
(have not tried that new dark 'Britannian Wool')
But you can make say cloaks/robes, stain them, then recycle/cut them back into cloth with a talior and they retain there stain colour.....
Probably might as well stain item after you make it by that method though, unless you are making some things that uses less cloth than you get back perhaps?!
Hope this helps

ah, that explains something ... not quite sure what though 
Afternoon all.
Housework - check
Mod jobs - check
Next on list is lip balm. A little market research here - what flavour lipbalms do we like folks? So far, I've got peppermint, cinnamon and vanilla. (vanilla from Grenada!) Need to get hold of orange and lemon, maybe a little strawberry and coconut too. Would rose work? Got some nice rose oil here. What do you all think?

I'm loving it. Making things that give people pleasure and make them feel good makes me feel good
The Grenadian vanilla doesn't work with my lip balm base, so I've just ordered some special flavour oils. We have
Chocolate
Cherry
Cola
Bubblegum
Strawberry
As well as the cinnamon and peppermint. I've had to stop making CP soap as I've no more room to cure it with 40+ bars sitting in the cupboard! Time to sort out a proper sized rack, methinks!

Heavens, Fluffi, he's 19. I'm not going to ask questions like that!
Not really. It's logical - it takes 4 - 6 weeks for each batch of soap to reach a stage where it can be used. There's only 4 batches of soap up there curing, and the sooner I make it, the sooner it cures and the sooner it cures, the sooner I can sell it and make the cost of the ingredients back. Much as I love my makings, I do need it to be self funding, so I'm going to set up an e-shop
That's one of the sites under consideration atm. My husband might be able to set up a site too, which I think would be better - if I don't have to pay anyone else, I can keep my prices down, which is always good.
Seconding Cherry, yum
Yeah. He has a site ready, apparently, he's just working on getting it ranked. He also says that he's not setting me up a shop until I have a LOT of stock ready, CP soap included. I'd rather make a dozen of all my lil beady things, as well as a dozen bars each of the melt and pour and lip balm and bill the CP as coming soon. I'm hoping to sell everything without getting snowed under or running out all the time, which should be an interesting line to walk. I think if I make things as a '10 available' or similar, it shouldn't be too hard.

I for once agree with Barian here, more whiskey flavored lip balm!
Did someone say whiskey flavoured lip balm? Honey's good too, I used to have a really lovely honey balm that was lub.
Oh and Etsy's cool, I'm on there with my beady things and love it. Folksy's another one some of my fellow Etsians are on too, but I've not tried it or Dawanda yet.
You'll be the first mod to tell posters to wash their mouth out with soap and water, then provide the soap too
Keep us posted!

I have a fledgling shop on Coriandr - I think it's cheaper to list items than Folksy/Etsy.
Morning all and cherry lips!
I don't know anything about all those fancy Luna shops you are talking about, but I like the idea of a mango lip balm!
