Plant Pot Jackets

First you need to measure the circumference and height of your plantpot..add 1/2-1" to both measurements

to allow for your hem

 Next using your measurements, cut out your fabric and hem all the way around all 4 edges

 Then sew on some Velcro (hook and loop)..I put the loop on the right side of the fabric and the hook on the wrong side

Wrap your finished jacket around your plantpot and voila!  I like that these can be put in the wash and changed when I get bored of them.

Valentines Melt and Pour Soaps

Spring Inspired Valentines Soap

I melt my soap using the double boiler (dish over pan of simmering water)

but some people choose to use the microwave, either are just fine :0)

I used Food/Cosmetic Grade Liquid Colourants and Cosmetic Grade Fragrance Oils

 Valentines Layered Soap with Spring Inspired Embeds

Valentines Soap Cupcakes

 Sorry...it's a bit difficult to read this...the soap icing/frosting is made by melting white melt and pour soap.  Once melted, add 1 tbs of liquid castille soap to each ounce of melt and pour soap...add any colourant and whisk with an electric mixer until it resembles icing.  I made 2oz and this was plenty, enough to make some little wax tarts...see below

And these are the "tarts" from the left over icing with a few embeds thrown in there!
