Inspiring Christmas gifts? Breath taking decorations? Incredible Christmas stress coping methods? Whatever it was tell us below!
I made soap to give to folks for the holidays. Cute little shapes and different fragrances. It was a big hit and soap making is so much fun. Clean up is so easy!
I did this primarily because I grew a luffa vine over the summer and ended up with 10 fruits ready and 1 still in the process of drying. I needed to do something with them, so I made soap and they work great!
Here are some leftovers:

Oh wow they look great! I’d be really happy getting something like that as a gift
Thanks! It was a lot of fun too.
I tried but it was a bit of a failure and needs a total redesign. Was a glasses case, my mum has this cheap amazon thing that folds flat over glasses and then can clip to bags etc. I wanted to make her a nicer one for christmas than her old warn out one.
I took measurements, designed it, cut it out etx. But I had no leather quite large enough and the bit I used was too thin and an awkward finish. And the design works for cheap fake leather reinforced with cardboard but just pure leather just isn’t rigid enough.
So yeah, back to the drawing board and I need new large leather panels.

Ah that’s frustrating. Sadly part of art is doing things that don’t look good or just don’t work. Well done for persevering with it!
