We had a lovely crafty weekend! We "made" luscious honey lemon verbena soap (here is my cheating tutorial for melt & pour soap) which turned out to be the perfect light summer scent for cool showers on hot days.
Plus, after our first success with raspberry liqueur, we decided to try some more challenging recipes, like an anisette and an anisette herbal blend with more lemon verbena from our garden.
Isn't star anise beautiful?
If these also turn out well, we'll be way ahead of the game for another handmade holiday season this year!
