I made some Homemade dish soap & Tea Tree and Lavender Whipped Body Butter in the last couple days. Both of these recipes are from this great blog called Sustain, Create and Flow. I love finding blog sites that help me with new recipes and challenge me to change the things that I can in my life. These 2 recipes I have been wanting to try so I finally had all the supplies and the time!
Here is a picture of all the supplies needed for the dish soap. Just heat water to melt the shaved soap add castle liquid soap and washing soda and any essential oils if you like. I used Dr. Bronner's Lavender castle soap so I used Lavender essential oil to go along with that.
I then poured it into a cleaned out dish soap container. I was waiting to finish off this last bottle so I can replace it with homemade dish soap. Wow, so easy to make and no chemicals! No more store bought dish soap for me! :)
Yesterday I made Tea Tree & Lavender Whipped Body Butter. Even though I have only my 3 lotion recipes, I have decided I LOVE to make lotions! I love to watch how the oils change from liquid to lotion! Of course its no surprise, I also love to make lots of things like soap, food recipes, cleaning supplies, basically anything that smells good; but lotions are just amazing! :)
This recipe is so easy and it looks so good you could eat it! I mean look at this:
Doesn't that look like frosting?!
Wow! After making this recipe I now know how to whip lotion! I quickly had to take this picture and put the overflowing lotion into another container and get it into the frig, since it was pretty warm yesterday it was starting to melt. No biggy, it just won't be whipped anymore if it melts, but the frig keeps it in the whipped form until you are ready to use it.
Let me know if you try these recipes, I would love to hear from you.
