Soapmaking

What I am reading at the moment.  I am doing lots of research and pinning like crazy on my new soapmaking board on Pinterest.  This book has methods for making soaps with the cold and the hot processes.  I think I will try the cold process first.  I am gathering the equipment necessary and the hardest is finding lye.  Fortunately, I have found it at Amazon.  I looked at a couple of places locally and I couldn't find any.  So use this link to buy yours. I also found this great website  https://www.soapqueen.com  and bought another book.  This book is on clod process soapmaking and has wonderful recipes and full-color images.  The steps are well illustrated, but some of the ingredients are not easy to find. I have made my first soap and it worked !!!  I took the recipe from Everything Soap Making, it has a formula with only olive oil, coconut oil and castor oil, ingredients you can find everywhere. I so understand all the craze!

Mercedes Lackey Hunter series

Voici trois livres que j'ai beaucoup aimé de Mercedes Lackey. L'histoire est une dystopie,; il est question de créatures fantastiques, de magie et d'une jeune femme qui est chasseur de créatures néphastes.     I just loved this series.  It's about a young hunter who  must navigate between danger in hunting dangerous creatures and human politics.  It takes place in an unknown future after an apocalypse.

Peinture Figure 9

Figure 9 is an abstract painting.  A strange figure immersed on the canvas. Figure 9 est une peinture acrylique.  J'ai aimé le processus de Pods in a Pond et j'ai repris la même technique ici.  En faisant mes formes groupées, une étrange figure est apparue.  Ce que j'aime de cette façon de peindre, c'est que les formes apparaissent d'elles-mêmes. Il y a plusieurs produits qui sont disponibles dans ma boutique sur Society6  https://society6.com/creationssophie
