Bacon Time with the Hungry Hypo made this cute, and totally useful, soap with a loofah in the middle. Get clean and do your exfoliating done at the same time.
This soap from Day2Day Supermom looks and sounds so yummy! I love finding and using natural products. Besides the melt and pour soap, everything in here came from her own kitchen. No weird chemicals that you can't pronounce or that will make you break out in a rash.
Our Crafting for Baby series is in full swing! I'm loving all the inspiration, and I hope you are too. There have been so many awesome projects that we've had from so many amazing bloggers, but I wanted to collect them all in once place for you. Be sure to check back every weekday throughout March for new projects!! You can also check out the Crafting for Baby Link Party that will be open for the month of March. Feel free to link up your own baby-related projects, recipes, activities, etc!
I'm really impressed with the vinyl from Cricket Vinyl Supplies, especially with the transfer tape. Other transfer tape (from other companies) that I've used has the grid lines on the paper backing, but not on the sticky paper. Cricket Vinyl Supplieshas transfer tape with grid lines on the sticky paper which makes transferring projects and lining them up SOOOOOO much easier, in my opinion. The vinyl is also really easy to weed and work with, which is very important when crafting.
-Oil/Vinegar Dispenser (I purchased mine from Wal-Mart for about $3)
I created my text in the Silhouette Studio.
I used a font called CF Jack Story (don't ask me where I downloaded it from). To fit on my dispenser, I sized it to about 4.5" x 1.7". I changed the line spacing also to make the letters closer together.
After creating it, I used my Silhouette to cut the vinyl and used the transfer tape to transfer the vinyl to the glass dispenser. Make sure to clean the glass dispenser well so that there isn't any dirt under the vinyl to keep it from sticking.
And here she is in her rightful place on the counter. I actually made two of these, one for my mom and one for me. I liked the idea so much as I was making one of her, that I decided I wanted one too!
And because I think we need more honesty in the blogging world, this is what my counter ACTUALLY looked like as I was taking pictures. Yup. Just keepin' in real. :)

It seems like everyone is concerned about chemicals and additives, especially in beauty care products. A Pumpkin & A Princess has created two awesome homemade soaps and is sharing her recipe! Making them yourself ensures you know exactly what the ingredients are, and as a bonus, you can customize the scent and color!
There are already so many cute projects popping up for Halloween. I wasn't going to start highlighting them for a couple of weeks, but I can't wait any longer!!!

These Halloween hand soaps are so freaking cute! I love the jack-o-laterns! Kids would actually want to wash their hands with these in the bathroom. This idea comes from Oopsey Daisy(guest posting at Every Creative Endeavor.)
