A couple days ago on a walk, I came across some beautiful lavender plant..

"Lavender"

I love lavender and always pick a bit and rub all over my hands.

Salvia clevelandii

Turns out, this wasn't lavender at all, but Cleveland Sage. I tried Google lens from the photo. I love technology!! It has its medicinal uses, namely for pain. You can Google more on that, I'm hardly a mystic myself, but goof has ya covered.

In any event, this time after washing my hands on a bundle, I picked a handful to bring home for the nice scent.

And then I remembered

I had a bunch of either wax or soap laying around from years ago that was never used... Turns out that it was soap!!

Grabbed a couple Tupperware containers to pour into as molds, and microwaved the soap base and added the "Lavender", it came out beautifully!!!

I couldn't have wished for a better outcome, it works amazing and leaves a slight scent (which could be the 5-10 drops of actual lavender or eucalyptus essential oils that was added at my daughters suggestion.

You can buy the base on Amazon here: https://amzn.to/3gllALF (affiliate link, I'll probably get a couple cents when/if you buy).
