No more soap making hassles, you can experience our automatic foam soap dispenser.
I lived in South Dakota during corona. It was business as usual with a few annoyances. I always laugh at the germaphobes and gatekeepers who are full of fear and conspiracy theories about C19. I never got the vx either. Gotta use your head!
I have been there in 2013 and I have pictures of the inside...
I stayed at Nottaway cabin 5 diamonds ON TRIPLE a
wONDERFUL tIME
@@joanpellillo2981 That sounds lovely. I really loved Nottaway! What was your favorite part?
Flashing isn’t food safe…
This foam looks thinner than foam soap that's purchased at the store. How do you give it more "body"?
That is probably a trade-off, unfortunately. It is probably a little bit thinner, but the smell is great and mimics the B&BW ones. You can try to add more soap in the mix, but unfortunately, too much soap is problematic too, as it won't produce foam. Let me know if you come up with a better ratio!
@@LoriGarcia Thank you, Lori. Personally, it doesn't bother me, but my hubby doesn't like it.
I'll stay with buying. I'm way too hard on things that are delicate 😂
I can certainly understand that, Ken. I tend to be rough of things too. This whole project started when I couldn't find a certain cookie cutter that I needed. It took me a lot of research to find a way to make my own. BTW, Ken's a great name. That was my dad's name.
That is a young boy that is not the way you do things
I use extra dye because I like it colorful. No problems at all! I ain’t scared. Thanks!
Love it! Glad you found what works for you, @zerosoma33!
I've been looking for the lamars chocolate bar recipe. Particularly the chocolate icing. Thank you for the donut recipe, as I will try it soon!
@artemismirror2174 Lamar's chocolate long johns are my favorite. You can use this basic donut recipe to create them, but if you've never made regular glazed or chocolate frosted donuts, I would do that first. I found this piping tip off Amazon that will help you make a filled donut. I have used it with frosting, pudding and jam and it works great. Here is the link: www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00WKIFYR4/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1
ahhh.. what is the measurement of the water?
Great question. I was using the old soap container. It says it is 8.75 fl oz or 259 ml.
I stopped buying B&BW products once I learned that the CEO was very close with Jeffrey Epstein and gave him $$$ to start his “career.” How can I wash my hands and still feel so dirty? 😡
Well. Jeff may have been a snake from the beginning but maybe not always a kid lover. Money and power corrupt people. Not saying one way or another but a lot of people were friends with Jeff and didn’t board that plane.
Very interesting video & yummy too. 😃 Way to go Lori!
You’re so sweet. Thank you @les1217 😘
Ok join in ❤😅
Use filtered water
So I’m getting less soap when I buy foaming soap 😵💫
Anything watered down or modified to be fun is less of a value. Whipped butter or yogurt is another example.
Hot wire knife leaves no mess
I love that idea! I use a hot knife while cutting foam core, but I didn't think about it with this. Thanks for the tip!
you're also diluting the cleansing agents as well. not a good idea. use proper foaming soap and add your aromatics to it. its easier than this method, despite what a couple incompetent posters said.
How is using shower gel a dilution of cleansing agents? And how would ADDING aromatics bypass what you’re talking about?
Can I use the gel hand soap in place of the shower gel? I bought the gel hand soap with this in mind.
Yes! I do this all the time too! Good question.
Greetings from Montréal, Québec, Canada !!! Hum...light and fluffy doughnuts...that sounds like 'Dunkin Donuts or Tim Horton's. You have nerver had HOME MADE Doughnuts from the Québec Recipe with mash potato and flour, etc...THOSE ARE THE REAL TREAT !!!
Interesting! Do you have a recipe you like? I would be willing to try it!
czcams.com/video/u567nt_sRTQ/video.html
Shower gel???
Since its so diluted, does it still desinfect the hands ???
Hi Liliixx - good question :) Most Bath and Body soaps and body washes are not disinfectants, they are merely soap. Soap does its job by washing the germs down the sink, not offering any disinfecting properties. So, does this work like soap or any foam soap you would find on the shelves -- yes! Does this disinfect like Lysol or other strong disinfectant -- no. Hope this helps :)
@@LoriGarcia oh yes that makes sense, thank you for the reply :D
Interesting, huh? Have a great day <3@@Liliiixx
AWESOME! I was about to pay someone to make a cookie cutter for me! I can do this! Thank you!
Yes! It's a lot easier than you think. One thing I've learned after making this video (and hundreds of cutters and cookies!) was to try not to make any small little parts, but keep the shape less intricate. Those small little parts, can easily break off! You can do a lot to decorate to make details. Good luck! Keep me posted.
You could use some sandpaper to blunten the sharp edge, especially if kids will be using these cutters.
What a great idea Ryan! Thanks for sharing.
Hi Lori, love your lil village! For the lake I followed Marklin of Sweden his youtube channel name, and designed a lake using just glue & toliet paper & paint. If you look him up, you will find it. I tried this for a beach "village" shown in my youtube channel. And ironically i did the same like you did, built levels with styrofoam for my lil halloween village as i had a very limited space to do it, on top of a small hutch. I'm always looking for styrofoam in the garbage. 😂😂😂😂😂
Thanks so much @les1217 for the idea for the lake. I need to check that out. Are you going to do a video on your Halloween village? I'd love to see it.
@@LoriGarcia yes! i posted it on my channel
You did such a great job! I love that one and the water in the harbor is gorgeous! Good work!@@les1217
@@LoriGarcia Thank you Lori! For the Lemax Beach Display I followed MarklinofSweden tutorial - czcams.com/video/2TwpB7sVMn8/video.htmlfeature=shared and the other lil harbor in the main Christmas village I used blue cellophane wrap on a roll (you can find in party city) & I layed the cellophane over a white snow blanket since its transparent & the white blanket underneath makes it sky blue. 😁
Thx So Much
Enjoy saving money! My favorite teacher in high school was a Dunlap!

You are lazy , love it , big smooch's and thanks 👍
Gotta be real 😂😂 thanks for the kind comment. Let me know how you like the detergent. Simple is best ❤️
“Hate to see your hard earned money down the drain?” Yet you are still using expensive B&BW gel as your main ingredient 🤦🏼♂️🙄. This is not a tutorial on how to make your own stuff. Hard pass lady lol
Well - It is a good tutorial but if you want to use cheaper stuff just do that. You’ve got directions here
That looked pretty easy, thank you!
It IS PRETTY EASY. Good luck. I'd love to hear how yours turns out!
Wow I love this. I bought a bottle a while back for $11.58 and now I have 99¢ dish washing liquid with a dash of aftershave foaming out of that same bottle. I always thought the soap was some special blend they cooked up in a lab, because I would put hand soap in the empty bottles without the water and it would just oze out like regular old hand soap. Thank you so much for sharing this.
Thanks for your kind words. Such a money-saver! I have been turning dish soap into foam soap for 20 years now (man, I'm old :p ) but then one day it occurred to me to use the same method with the shower gel....GAME CHANGER! Have a great day <3
Thank you so much for this tutorial!
You are so welcome. What kind of cutters are you making?!
@@LoriGarcia I made Rat/mouse shaped cutters! It's for the character I have in my picture.
I would love to see a picture <3@@tiffthunderchocolate
Made a few and they turned out wonderful.. great info!
I'm so glad that you had good success! Happy baking!
Krispy kreme is no where near as good as lamars
Exactly! Lamars is the BEST!
You're the best! Thank you.
You're so sweet. I'm just so grateful the idea occurred to me. Money savings for sure! What's your favorite way to saving $$$

Lush stopped making my favorite shower gel years ago but temporarily brought it back for new years. I’m going to use my new bottle for this so it will last waaaaaay longer and I can smell it everyday. Thank you!
Great idea. I love Lush!
Which one is your favorite?
@@ChessieChess Oh it's constantly changing. Right now I love the Pumpkin Cupcake Shower gel, which is funny because I don't really like pumpkin things :)
I purchased a bottle when they were $2.50 after the Holidays. FELL IN LOVE❣️ As an addict, I’ve watched in terror as my bottle has dwindled. We live a long way from a B&B Works☹️. But, I did buy a gross amount of the body wash(my husband is a closet addict🤫). So excited all I have to do is add water? 🤯 Thank you❣️ Blessings from a tiny town in Texas❣️
As a former resident of a tiny town in Texas, "Hello!" We lived in Sulfur Springs, TX when I was a small child. <3 We started using B&B when we were trying to get our grade-school (now high school) aged boys to wash their hands. BUT, with those price tags, it's not realistic. I had heard about people making their own foam soaps, and thought, what about using the bodywash at B&B to make our own foam soap?! We've been doing it ever sense. I can hardly tell the difference, and the most important thing for us -- the smell -- is spot on! Let me know how it works for you.
Sorry I didn't exactly answer your question. The important point is to add abt 1-2 T of bodywash and then fill the rest with warm/hot water. Shake, and you're ready to go. We don't actually add the food coloring anymore.
Small world🤗 I grew up in Ellicott, Colorado. It’s tiny too. I told my hubby NOT to move me back to the boondocks but we wanted to retire lakeside. We are retired military and aren’t rich so that meant tiny town, haha! We are in Quinlan. Thanks again🤓
thank you for this. i can finally make my own cheaper thank you
It really allows you to be creative! Have fun!
One of the best videos!! Thank you!
You are too kind. I'm just happy to share my research. Let me know how yours turn out!
Wow! You got a new sub from me! I recently made Jelly-Filled Donuts on my page too and *your dish looks amazing!* Hope to stay connected my fellow chef! 😁
Thanks Chef Vic. I am only a home baker, but def a persistant one. I'll go check out your channel :)
I’d use the ZOTE POWDERED SOAP. No need to shred it.
What?! How have I never heard of this?!!! Thanks so much for the tip. I'll go google it now :)
@@LoriGarcia99 cents store and Walmart have it in my area, I live in LA.
Why are you saying macaroon? One “O” does not make the “OO” sound. I just find it funny how many people make a tutorial for how to make macarons and they still say macaroon. They’re two totally different things.
yeah well in Canada a 1zote soap is 25$ so better to do my own soap is just coconut and talow !
Yikes! Is it because of the supply chain?
