Bath Bombs, Rain, and Wrapping

Today was supposed to be Bath Bomb day. I was up at 6 am ready to conquer the world of fizz! However, the universe had different plans in mind because before my second cup of coffee was gone, the rain was coming done in buckets! Days of heavy rain or humidity are NOT good Bath Bomb making days. You will end up with fizzing, warty globules. Sounds like something the cat dragged in.
So, regroup and shift gears. Today turned into label day for a while. I spent a few hours designing several different labels for our Get Scrubbed! Gardeners Scrub. We've changed the packaging to a low profile wide mouth jar. Very nice with a silver leak proof lid. So, we needed to change labels to fit these. I'll be taking all the different designs to my sisters for lunch tomorrow to get her opinion. We shall see if she likes the one that Matt chose, which incidentally was not the one I chose. By the time I was done the buckets of rain had changed to barrels and I was wandering the new house looking for leaks. Call me paranoid, but it was raining so hard it sounded like th roof was going to cave in.
Tired of sitting at the computer, I went out to the soap studio and started wrapping soap. Boy the time can pass you by when you are sipping Scent by Spirit Tea, listening (and singing along) to old 70's music, inhaling wonderful scents and wrapping soap in pretty paper. Next thing I knew the sun was out, the birds were singing and it was time to start supper. Here is just a small sampling of some of the bars that got wrapped today. Carrot, Oatmeal, Chai, Valhalla Shores, Pikaki Lani Shea Butter Bar & Gardeners Choice Dirt Buster Soap.

Thank You Georgia. I love playing with the Mulberry paper. And when I sit down to wrap soap the pretty colors of the paper always put me in a good mood :)
