I wasn't ready for the school year to start today! We didn't get a vacation. I had constant shop hours and a few markets. I hurt my elbow, so I only got to kayak the one time. It was so hot! Gardening and walking took up most of my extra hours. I never even made it to the movies (I bet I'm the only one that hasn't seen the new…

Just tweaked with different essential oils (to focus on a vapor rub-ish aromatherapy experience), a slight adjustment in the amount of coconut oil (to hold them together in the new molds), and made…

They wanted to give Handmade on Main an Editor's Choice award in their…
