Guest guest Posted March 8, 2002 Report Share Posted March 8, 2002 Carol, These black walnut shells are so fine they are almost powder. While someone wrote in to say they are not of quality for soap I think I will still try it. As for the egg shells someone also wrote in to say they had to be sterilized before adding to soap. I do not understand this as soap becomes very hot when saponifying. Would like to know what others think of the idea of using the walnut and egg shells. Obviously someone is doing it or I would not have come across recipes with them in it.

Guest guest Posted March 8, 2002 Report Share Posted March 8, 2002 Well, the only recipes using ground roses are for beads (that's where the term rosary came from) . Unfortunately, I don't have a recipe for toiletries, but the beads might be nice for decorating or packaging the final items. Well have to dig the recipes up now.. great... something else I want to try! LOL I'm getting a lot of those lately.... Bast Lotus on the Nile Soapworks Ankh, Udja, Seneb! (Life, Prosperity, Health!)

Guest guest Posted March 8, 2002 Report Share Posted March 8, 2002 This recipe is from an old friend of mine. Body Powder 1/2 to 1 cup white cosmetic grade clay ( kaolin clay ) 1 to 2 cups arrowroot powder or cornstarch or a combination of both essential oil of your choice ( optional ) Lavender and rose flowers ( optional ) 1.In a large Bowel,using a wire whisk mix the clay and arrowroot or cornstarch together. Add essential oil Because of its absorbent properties,the powder willabsorb far more then you imagine. 2. If you wish to use herbs in your powder, grind the lavender and roses to a fine powder using a coffee mill or grinder. Sift, then grind again. They must be as finely powdered as possible or they will create a gritty feeling. Add herbs to powder and mix well. 3. Cover the body powder with a porous cloth and let sit for several hours to dry. Put in shaker containers. Hope this is what you all are looking for. God Bless Sharon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted March 9, 2002 Report Share Posted March 9, 2002 I would be interested in your recipe for the Rose Steam for sure !!! Thanks, Vicki Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 9, 2002 Report Share Posted March 9, 2002 Sherry, give it a try but don't give it out to friends until you have tried it for a while to see how your skin reacts. You never know, it may be great but I would sure use the shells sparingly because even cornmeal makes my soap like sandpaper if I use too much. Let us know how it comes out. I am going to look in my books and see if there is any reference to these shells and the recommended amounts. Thanks for the info.

Guest guest Posted March 9, 2002 Report Share Posted March 9, 2002 Regarding dried rose petals, powder, etc. if you go into the nessence site, there is a victorian rose petal facial scrub and if you are still wondering what to do with rose petals, how about sleep pillows, sachets made with organdy so they show through the fabric (I use pink and dark red petals together and they are beautiful). You can also use them to make a " pomander " type fragrance ball, etc. I buy the petals and found out that one pound of rose petals is a lotttttttt of rose petals. I also grind them into a powder and put them in body powder. Carol A2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 9, 2002 Report Share Posted March 9, 2002 Hi! I have a recipe for the rosary beads from Cunningham's book Incense,and brews. It is: 1 part fresh rose geranium leaves 2 parts Rose petals - the more fragrant the better. Rose water Remove white stem from the rose petal. Cover the petals and leaves with rose water in a nonmetallic pan. Simmer covered for 30 mins. Ensure that the mixture doesn't actually boil. Turn off the heat and let soak until the next day. Repeat this procedure for three days in all, adding rose water when necessary. On the last day squeeze out all the water until you have a fragrant mess. There mixture should be dry enough to hold it's shape. form into beads. Push a large needle or stiff wire through each and hang to dry. They will be black and not very pretty. but fragrant!! Kat Gaston,OR theskyes@... rainmeadows@... http://www.geocities.com/rainmeadows/index.html May your paths always find you rainbows!
