Title: Better late than never Post by: Pau on June 25, 2010, 01:44:00 PM Hi everyone
I'm pauline. I've just been having a good ol browse & realised I haven't introduced myself yet. I'm new to all this forum stuff...sorry! I live near Herne Bay in Kent. I have always had an interest in crafts, mum & dad used to buy me craft sets for christmas, many moons ago, things like candle making, corn dollies, creative things you know? I am a self taught knitter & crocheter & I love gardening. I first got into lotion & cream making about 20 years ago with a nurse friend but good ingredients were hard to come by so it took a back seat for a while. I then got back into creams/lotions a couple of years ago when I had dermatitis & nothing would touch it, this then got me on to soap making soon afterwards. I have just got my SA & make soaps mainly for friends/family at the moment. No big plans as present. Biggest passion(s) is golf & the lovely birds that visit my garden....& hubby too of course.

Title: Re: Better late than never Post by: Michelle on June 25, 2010, 04:43:20 PM Welcome aboard Pauline. You sound like a very creative lady.
I see you got your SA in soaping are you going to try and revive your lotion making and maybe do that too. Im still at the researching stage on that one and a bit scared too lol ps Im the one that cant spell on a keyboard my fingers get dyslexic :mwaha: Title: Re: Better late than never Post by: Helen on June 25, 2010, 05:21:15 PM A big warm welcome Pauline, so glad you have joined us :buttrf:
Goodness, it sounds like your interests stem back quite some time and it must be lovely to revive your interests. Well done on the SA ;) Keep posting Pauline because the more you post, the more boards will open to you. Great to have you here!! :buttrf: :buttrf: Title: Re: Better late than never Post by: Honey on June 25, 2010, 05:31:00 PM Welcome Pauline! We love pics too so you have to post some as and when you have something made... we don't care if it's as ugly as an ugly thing on National Ugly Day or the most beautiful thing in the world that it makes you want to cry!!!
Title: Re: Better late than never Post by: Pau on June 25, 2010, 06:58:27 PM ooh, i feel like I've just had my 1st weightwatchers meeting, really nervous about going, but everyone's so lovely & welcoming, thank you all.
No plans at the mo to get big into lotions, I'm finding soaping absolutely fascinating, so much stuff out there I didn't know & I've picked up loads of stuff on the boards....You lot are amazing.

Welcome to Fresholi! We're a friendly lot here, so if there's anything you want to know, share or even just vent then please feel free to do so. I love the birds too but I'm having problems getting them to come into my garden... I have a cat so that may be part of the problem but I have friends with cats who have lovely birds in the garden! Any top tips? Kevin x Title: Re: Better late than never Post by: samantha on June 25, 2010, 07:50:04 PM Welcome Pauline (:hug:)
We are a very nice bunch here ( despite my shameful behaviour on another thread earlier :-[ ) Not normal I assure you. Feel free to ask questions and post pics (lots of pics) and look forward to seeing more of your posts :buttrf: Title: Re: Better late than never Post by: Pau on June 25, 2010, 08:41:38 PM Hi Kevin & Samantha
pics will follow, be warned. Kevin, I've got a small garden but 7 feeders with sunflower hearts, peanuts, fat balls & squashed insect cakes... meal worms if they're good & baths of course (3 of those) & a bird table placed in different situations, then just be patient, they will come. They like a bit of bread as well. I'm going to stop there or I'll go on all nite. Pauline Title: Re: Better late than never Post by: Lulu on June 25, 2010, 08:42:30 PM Helllo Pauline,
