Thank you all for the warm welcome! You're both right I think - I love the potential of my box - I have tidied it twice just to see how excitingly neat it is before I mess everything up, and I love the feeling of learning something new. At the same time there is previous knowledge from other fields that make it a development...==========[[[ well that ended that pontification. My old cat just walked on the keyboard glaring at me that I am not in bed for her to sleep on for the next 12 hours till feeding time. Sigh.

Welcome, Nicola! You'll love it here, everyone is very supportive and full of very constructive criticism - the good kind! it's rare to find a group of people who care enough to deliver brutal honesty but from such a loving place. It's priceless and will help you grow! Perfect place for a newbie (I'm one, too!). Enjoy!

No matter how talented you think we are, every single one of us started from scratch .... everyone has to and it's the best way to learn.  Enjoy!!!!

The ONLY way to learn is to make the mistakes yourself, IMHO :buttrf:

Welcome Nicola, hope you enjoy being a part of the forum Smiley

Hello to all of you!

You are right, I am already being sucked in - it's becoming a habit - first wanting to know if I can make my own bodycare products, so surfing to find out, then surfing to find where to buy the ingredients and thus falling into the Fresholi trap! - Now (because I have been a bit under the weather today - and that's Mancunian weather so it's heavy) I am reading lots of your posts so I can get to know you a bit better - WHEN AM I GOING TO MAKE MY BODY BUTTER?! I think I like the individual ingredients so much - it's like beautiful multicoloured hanks of wool that you don't want to knit but just stash and look at.

However, the time will come tonight or tomorrow DEFINITELY...

Nicola! I know just how you feel - I have several hanks that are just too pretty to knit! I ended us making a felt bowl and just displaying them! They make me happy  Smiley
