Amethyst













At last! After creating lots of purple soap, I made an amethyst that I like. I realize it is probably not a true replica of a rough cut amethyst, but I like it, and I hope everyone else does too. The fragrance I chose for this one is Lavender Martini. I think it is perfect; it's definitely a lavender fragrance, but it has some zing to it. It's fresh and breezy.


This will be my last post for a while. The rest of this week will be spent getting chores and errands done. On Friday I leave for New Orleans. I will return on February 27th. See you then!
