Handmade Soap Workbench 2012

I am so excited to show my soap-making friends the AWESOME new work table my Dear Hubby made for me!

It's enormous, TALL (39 in. to worktop perfect for a 6ft. soap-maker like myself) and STURDY (bye bye to the rickety folding table.) Plus, he ran an industrial power strip under the front edge, so no more knocking things over with my stick-blender cord. (a clever clever man, My Hubby!)

All this he did on his day off yesterday while I was at a craft fair.  What a great gift. :)   He is going to put a shelf on the bottom (atop the 2x4 frame) where I will keep my large containers of oils & butters, and another shelf will be up tomorrow on the upper rt. of the pegboard to hold clays and other colorants that are currently on top of the white cabinet that holds my essential oils and fragrances.

We worked this evening on getting the pegboard organized, but I will wait until tomorrow afternoon after church to make my first batch of handmade soap on it. I can't wait! :)

Hope you all are pleasantly busy this season, and soaping up a storm.

Happy Soaping Everyone!   ~Becky

That's so sweet of him! Aren't husbands who understand our soapy obsessions the best? :)

That is such an awesome work space! Someday, someday, someday I will move my soap making from the kitchen to my very own space as well. LOVE IT!!!!!
