(what did you use for the colors in the samples you sent?  you had green, yellow, orange... all sorts of cool colors)

Actually I used lipstick for all of them!  The yellow is the natural color if you add nothing at all.  The orange came from a really shimmery orangish lipstick - when you melt it it's REALLY shimmery!  And the green was from lipstick also.  I was a little wild when I was younger and had leftover colors like purple, orange, green, black...yeah.

WOW! Lots happens in a day, eh?

Love those packages there! Great job guys!  I received too - an awesome pkg from liebschien: THANKS! so much... but a friend of mine borrowed the camera and I won't get it back till tomorrow so till then I will just drool over the contents....

SevsOnlyGirl, glad you liked the package, I'm trying hard to be a good swapper.    I'm only sad I didn't stick the entire Honolulu Weekly in there...
Here's a close-up of the spider. The body is a tiny bell.  It's my new desktop pic:

I received from Puamelia today.  The whole package was wrapped in pages from the Honolulu Weekly which made for fun reading.

my first batch came out cool - 2 different colors (I split it in half), 2 different scents.......  oh, a trip[ to american science surplus in my future for more containers, cause they have some cool ones

[SevsOnlyGirl]

Let me know what kind of containers you get - I have to order mine off ebay, no one has anything around here.

Awesome packages ladies! That lip balm kit looks like it would be so much fun on a rainy day!

Here is the necklace I sent to Laural since she hasn't had a chance to post yet! Hopefully she can add an action shot later! It was a bit of an experiment, so I can't wait to see it on!

It was fun to do on a saturday night, too!  but it's been so hot, I had to refrigerate them to get them nice and cooled off (the downside of living in a 3rd floor apartment, heat rises)

CUTE necklace, Banga - we may have to have a little chat, you and i

[Samsara]

That's a beautiful necklace Banga! I'm sure Laural will love it! 

[SevsOnlyGirl]

Banga - that necklace is pretty...I can think of so many things to wear it with.
