Here is the final bar in this #nomowmay inspired series and it's a beautiful swirly delight! Now I need your help to pick the design that is the best!!

And we are back with the third bar in the Mindful Meadow series and it is a super cute bar of soap!

So we are back for design 2 in our Mindful Meadow series - for this soap I went for a hidden flower design.

As it is #nomowmay it is the perfect time to redesign our wildflower inspired soap, Mindful Meadow. I 'm creating 4 different designs and I'm going to need your help to decide which design is best!

#NoMowMay encourages those of us lucky enough to have a green space of our own to do, well nothing!! They want us to put our lawn mowers away for the whole month of May and let the wildflowers grow!

I thought as we are still in Plastic Free July I would share with you a really easy recipe for hair wax that you can make at home, plastic free.

I really want to have a dedicated soap making space as up until this point I have been using a small section of the kitchen worktop (basically the size of a large chopping board).

After last week when I had some mixed results when it came to testing my natural colourants I am back making a whole kilo of coloured soap. Let's see how it goes...

As promised this blog post reports back on how my experiments using natural colours went. Well if I am honest, it has been a little bit mixed!

I am pleased to report that I have finally managed to order everything I need to finalise my soap formulations. The next step is to test out the natural colourants...

Have I managed to move forward with getting my soaps ready to be safety assessed? Well the honest answer is no! It has taken me a ridiculous amount of time to purchase my ingredients...

I am now getting to the point where I need to finalise my soap recipes so that I can submit them for safety assessment and this is leading to some serious procrastination.

Sometimes you just have to accept that it has been one of those weeks. I should have recognised it from the start - a migraine spanning the entire weekend.

Apart from the obvious benefit such a practice would bring to others and the planet, why should you consider including acts of kindness as part of your daily routine?
