Lotion

I have recently began making my own lotion. It has been turning out very nice too. Even if I am the one to say so. :) I am thinking about selling it but I am not wanting to pay the fees to have an Etsy shop so I am offering it to you here.

   It is made with all natural oils and aloe vera. I use a verity of herbs and essential oils. My current favorite herbs for lotion are; calendula, orange, lavender, rose and comfrey. I always use some coconut oil and I also use olive, grape seed, sunflower, hazelnut oils and cocoa butter.
  I re-purpose jars to hold the lotion. I mostly have 8 oz jars.
 I can sell this for $10 plus shipping.

We have been sewing again. Our theme this time has been the renaissance period. I also made a vest/ doublet  for Lars but have not taken a picture of him. I want to finish his Robin Hood costume. Derek made Heidi's first and then we all needed to have a costume too.

trying it on

last month Derek got a bunch of new stuff for Deployment. all kinds of jackets and hats and well we had to try some of them on. Lars was sure these hats went together. :) There is a back pack that I wish he didn't need because I want it.

he also got new sleeping bag and stuff that he tried out last week. they were on a army style camping trip. the first night was really cold but the next night it was warmer so Derek slept out under the stars, or rather the rain cloud. But he stayed dry in all his wet weather stuff. After that they let him sleep in a tent.
