Make your own DIY Foaming Hand Soap
Years ago, I was having trouble with really dry hands, this was before my soap making days and I was just beginning my journey to a healthier way of living. I realized that the hand soap I was purchasing from the store was causing my dry hands and decided to search for a better way. It had to be easy as at the time I had many children under tow. So, here is what I found.
At first, I purchased foaming soap at the store and poured out the contents, not very frugal I realize, but the pain and discomfort it was causing me outweighed the loss of the discarded soap. So, with foaming bottle in hand, I poured in about 1/4 inch of an organic castille soap, like Dr. Bronners or Vermont Soap. Then fill the container slowly with water, if you fill too fast, you will just create a bottle of foam. You can leave it unscented or put 15-20 drops of your favorite essential oil or blend into the foaming bottle. Put the cap on and you're all set. This works like a charm and it's saved my hands and hundreds of dollars.
1 or 2 Foaming Soap Bottles
1/8 cup (approximately) of organic liquid castille soap per bottle
Water
15-20 drops of essential oil

How to Organize Washi Tape
I decided to try and organize all of my business supplies before the Holiday rush. I had a washi tape organizer that I had found at Costco, but it just didn't give me the flexibility to do what I wanted. I wanted to be able to grab a roll of washi tape and wrap whatever I was wrapping and put it back. The Costco organizer held the tape on a roll type thing and had a cute cutter on the side of the tray, basically worthless for me as the tape could not easily be removed and as you can see from the picture, it became a pile of chaos!
After much searching, I came across this amazing washi tape organizer and I am so pleased with it. Here is a photo after everything was organized neatly in my new rack. Each tape can be pulled off the shelf and put back easily.
