Here are some answers to your questions, Starr!!!
1. You can actually make bath poufs at home. If you don’t want to take the
time, you can always check out Wal-Mart!
Here are the directions:
Bath Scrubbies
-1 yard bridal illusion netting (pick up at fabric store)
-1 yard satin ribbon or soft cord
Lay out all the fabric on a flat surface. Fold is four times lengthwise.
Start folding the fabric in half, bringing the two ends together. Fold in
half again and again until you have a near square of fabric about 8 inches
long. Take the ribbon and tie it tightly around the middle of the fabric
square and secure it with a knot. Take the two ends of the ribbon and tie
them into another knot one inch from the end. Fan out the folds of fabric
until your scrubbie is full. Enjoy!
2. Glycerin is a natural by-product of soapmaking. Commercially made soap
manufacturers (Ivory, Irish Spring, etc.) take out the glycerin and sell it
in liquid form. However, handmade soaps retain their natural glycerin, make
them much more moisturizing. You can buy glycerin from your local pharmacy
or drug store. You can also add a little bit of emu oil or aloe vera gel/oil
to your bath salts, to make it really moisturizing. I like adding emu oil to
my bath salts.
Hope this helps!

Dear Everyone,
Here are the directions:< <
*grin* Also, one of my friends told me about Whole Foods.
My husband Jeff and I vacationed in Phoenix, AZ this past week, so I haven’t
been on e-mail. But we returned home last night, and I now have 703 e-mails
to go through! I can’t believe it! Anyway, I wanted to reply to the bath and
body list posts that I’ve seen!
time, you can always check out Wal-Mart!
Oh Whitney, thank you SO much for that recipe!!! I've seen it somewhere but
didn't write it down, so thanks for e-mailing it to us! I definitely want to
try this!!! Would be a great addition to a gift or gift basket. Thanks!
This is great info. Thanks. I wasn't sure where I could get glycerin!
Thanks!
pots that are reasonably priced. She has a lot of neat stuff that I would
love to order; just haven't gotten around to it! :)<<
Again, thanks for this info! I will definitely have to check out that Web
site!
When we were in Phoenix, I learned about two bath and body-type stores where
you can buy neat stuff ... one is Lotions and Potions. Has anyone heard of
that store? I bought some base shower gel with glitter in order to make my
own! And I bought some things for Jeff (my husband) for Valentine's Day
there, too!
It's a store where you can buy oils and stuff and homemade soap ... sounds
neat! And they have a Web site: www.wholefoods.com. Just thought I’d pass it
along!
