Coconut Milk Soap

[robotxnoise.livejournal.com]

I've recently gotten into soap making. I made a batch of coconut milk soap about two months ago, and it turned a dark pink color (it was originally very white), and so I threw it away. How long does soap usually last, and what kind of preservatives could I put into the next batch to help it not change colors or the coconut milk go bad?

theater

This is a theater for hand puppets I made for a friends kindergarten. I hope they´ll like it.
You just put it in the door frame and the show can begin. The "weather" has velcro and can be changed easily - I still want to make some
stars, a moon and dark clouds.

First Post!

[puzzleoflight.livejournal.com]

I've been part of this community for quite a while and, though I've commented on others' posts, I haven't made a post of my own. I've been making a ton of jewelry lately, however, so I figured it was about time to show something.

Thanks for looking!

Another Halloween Costume

[crimson-queen.livejournal.com]

I finished my Halloween costume last night and I'm pretty excited that it came out so well since it's the first time in over ten years that I've made anything using a pattern, and even then it was a stuffed animal that came out looking a little wonky.

My husband is going as Mario and I'm going as Princess Peach. I don't have my wig or gloves yet but I'm too excited about the dress to wait.

( Yay for Halloween )

Elephants!

[essencejaded.livejournal.com]

Saw a couple of cute elephants around the interwebs and decided to make my own. And then I got slightly fanatical and made three (and am working on a fourth). They (and all the stuffies I make) are named after my English reading list (George Elliot and Sylvia Plath).

Potentially cross-posted. Not sure yet. Probably.

I've attempted to freehand a sweater twice before and the results were rather unsuccessful.
