My Christmas Card Decoration Ball....

I found this craft of the Martha Stewart web site and gave it a try.. they are super easy to make but time consuming if you don't have a circle cutter.. after cutting all the circles out I realized I did have a circle cutter... lol

Anyways the pictures shows how its done..  If you want to make them and are having trouble, leave a comment or check out Martha Stewart's web page.. 

I hung it on the tree next to the light bulb snowman I made...

My Laundry Soap...

I got this recipe on line.. but also from my daughter in law.. 

I used Zest Bar Soap.... 2 bars..

But don't use a bar of soap that has moistorizer ( spelled wrong, sorry ) in it..

Then I grated the soap... which I must say was easier than I thought..

I had my food processor all ready to grind it more fine but the Zest worked so much better than the home made bar I used before, that I bought at a farmers market..  That bar I had to put in my processor.. wasn't fine enough for me..  but the Zest worked great... 

This is what it looks like after I grated it.. 

Then I added 2 cups of Borax ( I doubled the recipe )

plus 2 cups of Arm and Hammer So Clean...

Both products I got at Soberys..

Mix the three ingredients together ...

Pour in mason jars or any other jar you would want to store your soap into... 

Just 2 Tablespoons to your laundry before you put your clothes in.. 

Does not make any soap residue on your clothes.. and your clothes do come out clean.. and smelling really nice..

This will last you way, way longer than the laundry detergent you buy in the stores..

and a lot less expensive.. 

I think I paid $5.99 for the Borax and $7.99 for the Arm and Hammer..

Or vise versa.. 

Try it and you will save tons of money..
