Hi guys Smiley  i'm not very good at introductions so I guess i'll start with the basics! My name is Beth, i'm 34 and have 2 children...a daughter aged 13, and a 5 year old son. I've been making soap for about a year now, and am utterly addicted Wink. I also love making, and learning about bath and body products using natural  ingredients only if at all possible. I have a laymans interest in aromatherapy which developed after i had my son and was diagnosed with PND. It's been a long, bumpy road and i've still not reached the end of it, but i try to keep myself busy researching possible formulations for various things, and obviously making soap! My other loves are art(mainly painting fantasy in watercolour) and my beautiful pony, Lukey. I've had him since he was 11 months old...he's now 3 1/2 and we've just backed him, something else to keep me busy Smiley i've been lurking here awhile so decided to be brave and join lol. Take care, Beth x   butterflies

Welcome! I also enjoy fantasy art but looking not doing! Envious of your horse (always wanted one, too late now). This is a super, helpful forum, I'm sure you'll enjoy it!

Hi Beth, Welcome  Smiley I've a similar interest in aromatherapy. I sympathise with the PND - that sort of thing can take a while to resolve.

Thanks guys for the welcome Smiley Wolfhound, Lukey is my first pony...he's a new forest and cost me the princely sum of £190 as a foal-ofcourse to me, he is now priceless Smiley Paul, yes, the PND is a real pain...thought i was over the worst but had a relapse about a month ago Sad It does feel like a battle alot of the time, but for me i've found that keeping busy is a very effective weapon against it.
