Merry Christmas from the Lawton's

Tags for Soap

Well, I have handmade Goat Milk Soap to sell and I had a little tag that I taped on that told the name and ingredients of the soap. My good friend Raluca bought some soap and saw my slightly pathetic attempt of a tag and decided that it could be improved by using her Cricut. So she came up with one and then came over to help me make them for the rest of my soaps. I wanted to print the information on each tag instead of pasting paper with the information on the tag so I used my Graphic Arts skills to align the text just right for the Cricut machine to cut out my info in the form of the tag. We only had two slight mishaps with this method.

It took us about 4 and 1/2 hours. Thank you so much Raluca for coming and helping to improve the image of my new soaps. Tirzah and Azariah also helped by using the Cricut Machine and then punching the holes in the tags. Now to wrap all the soap and attach the tags.

Here are each of the tags for the six different kinds of soap.

The pile of tags that we made. Whew, glad that is done, but it was fun.

Three of the soaps all packaged with the new tags.

Oh, and if you want to purchase any you can check out my Etsy Store or email me.

Zuri Smilling

It took awhile for Zurishaddai to start smiling and even now it isn't real common yet, but here is a picture I was able to capture of him doing it.

Family Pictures

We had our family pictures taken at church a couple of weeks ago, here are the results.

Getting six children to smile and cooperate is not easy. Talitha for some reason would not smile for the Camera at all that day.

I love this one of my boys.
