Happy National Handmade Day!

Do you make anything by hand?

From time to time, I make a bunch of potions, with essential oils, but not as often as I would like to do.

I'd like to create a room spray with lemon and vanilla, or lemon and orange and vanilla, to clear the energy in the room, sweeten it and make it comfy. Here's the recipe link.

See you next time!

love, Jeanine

I love, love, love making things from scratch. I make a scented blend for my home, but do leave out the rubbing alcohol (just a personal preference). :)

Oh, that's great! I need to get back to it. I often use witch hazel, instead, but thought I would try rubbing alcohol to compare. It seems to add strength to the scent.

Outside of cooking and my writing, I do enjoy "kitbashing" Starship models.
This is where you take parts from different model kits and make something brand new. Working on a couple of them now. An older version of the "Spaceship" (not Starship yet) Enterprise, and a hospital ship.

Oh, how cool! That would create kind of a hybrid universe, right? Or a brand new one that you make up?

Jeanine, thanks for the recipe. I go in spurts with creating room sprays with essential oils. Sometimes Wintergreen turns into room sprays around Christmas. Mainly I use essential oils for myself, a dab here and there. I do sometimes go on baking binges, creating GF and/or fruit sweetened baked goods. Yumm!

Kebba, I am the same way! But once I do make one, I love it. I often use them apart from the blends, too, but usually in roll-ons.

Does building a You Tube Channel count? Writing blog posts everyday? I love making videos. Not sure what to do a video on, today🤔 Perhaps a eulogy for a friend who's funeral I will attend, today. She taught me everything I know about how a Solar Eclipse affects your Astrological Chart.

Oh, I'm sorry for your loss, Kate! I think YouTube videos could count, in a sense, because they are creative. They might not technically be handmade, but the creativity is there.

I love to make things teas are my favorite.

That's so cool, Brenda! I'd love to know more about how you do it and what kinds of tea you make.
