Behold, The Power of Stubborn!
Mar. 28th, 2011 08:20 amDress is completely assembled. All that's left now is putting in the grommets, hemming, and adding trim. It's amazing how much I can get done once I get off my sorry backside and get to work. And when I get frustrated enough to stay up past 1am fighting with gores to get them to lay properly....
Last night's major crafting discovery, though, was that unwanted BPAL can, in fact, be used to scent homemade soaps. Though measuring just how much to add is a bit difficult; I now have an *extremely* strongly scented bar of Lady Macbeth soap.
In somewhat related news, I don't suppose any locals out there might want a bar or two of homemade soap? I have been forced to admit that I'm making the stuff faster than I can use it, and the major block on experimenting further is the knowledge that it's just sitting around taking up space - I can't justify making more until I get rid of at least a little of what I have already....
