Hi Holly, i enjoyed your vlog it was a nice surprise. The cabin is definitely taking shape, and your husband has made good progress with it , your so fortunate to have a husband that can turn his hand to most things, my husband is hopeless at anything diy it usually ends up worse and have to get a tradesman in to fix his diy lol . Have a lovely weekend Holly. x
Thank you! I'm so excited about the cabin. My husband and son are putting in windows now and it just looks so good. The metal is here and it's time to roof this thing!
Love this!! You are INDEED meant to vlog!! And for those of us that will never build a log house/cabin…we’re living vicariously through you!! Thank you for sharing!❤
Holy I loved your vlog. Happy Bithday. My bday is on the 27th so I understand how it just blends into Thanksgiving. Well the positive side of having a Thanksgiving bday is that there is a feeling of family and celebration. You mentioned that you had been sewing and had to put everything away ... thinking you need to have your hubby add onto your studio a sewing space. Your soap space is super organized and that view from the window is to die for. I'd never leave that studio. God bless you and your family.
Thank you! Yes, you certainly do understand. I've never spent Thanksgiving with anyone other than immediate family so I guess it just always felt like the usual. No one wanting to make a birthday dessert or special meal.
Happy Birthday dearest Holly hope you enjoyed your day. 🎂🎁❤️. The cabin is coming along now wow it looks really beautiful from afar. I hope things pick up for you Holly the cost of living is affecting so many small businesses. Ingredients are so expensive these days it makes it so hard to manage a business. Love your attitude though keep going forward. Hope you’re doing ok Hun?😊 Take care Holly love your vlog videos too. Love the pooches. ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you! I am so very excited about the cabin. It will be fun to be able to work inside and not be so dependent on good weather days. The expenses are so high but I am thankful I can keep plugging away for now. January through April can be slow so I'm definitely worried.
Happy birthday! So exciting to see the cabin continue to grow. I can smell those pines! And yeah, those mountain valleys do that fog thing alot in the winter. Thanks for a sneak Montana peek❤❤❤
Thank you Jennifer! It's been so pretty with the freezing fog but I'm ready for this inversion to go party somewhere else! We've been socked in since I stopped filming that video on Monday.
Hi Holly, Great new vlog I can't wait to see more of them. I finally saw the purple wall it looks lovely. I didn't notice the unblending makeup, You look beautiful with makeup or without. Happy birthday Holly.
First Happy belated Birthday and thanksgiving. Second it was wonderful to catch up on your video over the holiday break. An thanks for passing on the important information for us small businesses. I just got a couple of fragrances and essentials oils from the sales just to get ready for launch. My sons are so ready to move back to the country, thank you for letting me vicariously through you for the longest. So honored to be one of your peeps here for support. You are my vlog, Nelson soapy, also jerka zimmerson channel. I haven’t found a knitter or crochet vlog yet, however as always I did enjoy. ❤️💛❤️🤍 ☕️. PS I didn’t even notice the makeup errors. Although I don’t wear makeup either.
Thank you! The lastest info is that there is an injunction on that reporting from a Texas-based court. So you'll want to stay up to date on that info if you haven't filed yet. For knitting, check out Knit A Rainbow and Sweet Skein of Mine. There are many but those are the ones that I watch. There is also Knitty Natty and A Homespun House.
Happy birthday Holly.love this vlog and I can't see any thing wrong with your makeup Your cabin is coming along nicely,cant wait to see it finished 😊xx
I love this! It’s like a sneak peek behind the scenes ❤ I love it! I got my package of figgy scrubs and room spray in today and I’ve had to steal them from my daughter already lol
Yes, I purchased some things on black Friday weekend. They were all from a little business called Missouri River Soap. Maybe you've heard of them. They're based in Montana, all their quality products are made in the USA, and they have great customer service! Happy belated birthday, Holly! 🎉
I love studio vlogs. This was a delightful surprise. Unfortunately none of them do vlogmas anymore. I do watch a daily live safari that's streamed through the "wild earth" channel here in UA-cam. It's very low key and great background for when I'm working.
Love love love the vlog!!! ❤ I was excited to hear you might make more natural soaps in the new year! Would you please make a tallow JUICY essential oil blend soap? I want to buy it!! I ended up with the flu over thanksgiving and I washed my hands a million times with your lavender tallow bar that sits at my kitchen sink. No dry hands! I’ve just been so happy with your tallow soaps and I love the essential oils! ❤ cabin looks great! Has the bear come back?
Thank you Jill! The Juicy Soap in Tallow does sound great! Some people are asking me to make more tallow soaps and others are asking me to stop making tallow soaps. LOL I would love to make it in both but I will have to evaluate how much added work that would be.
I can't even believe that this was the better option for us financially. So I'm really excited to have a cabin in the woods of MT. I bet your puppies are the best!
Oh my goodness I'm sorry everything crapped out at once! Our oven broke 3 days before we were hosting Easter one year, but I was able to overnight a replacement part from Amazon and it was fixed in 5 minutes (thanks Google!) Another year our dishwasher broke the day before Thanksgiving - luckily we had 6 guests who were happy to wash dishes. It's like the appliances know! Happy belated birthday 😊
It IS like the appliances know! I still don't have an oven. I am not sure what I am going to do there. Thankfully, we have a lot of other gadgets that work for now.
I just ordered tangerine, Palmarosa, tangerine, orange 10x , fir needle and pine eo’s lol. Oh Holly soap making is an addiction. Love this blog type video. Have you ordered from Azure? They have a deal going on the coconut oil. Myrrh is 65 lb or 112 kg on the site I shared with you before. I am rendering my tallow tomorrow. Thank you
@ I am not seeing that Azure has any bulk coconut or essential oils. Funny story, we visited that family back in the 90’s and stayed the night with them. I don’t even know why. 😬 I have compared prices and find Vine Vida to be good compared to other suppliers. So interesting!
Happy belated Birthday Ms. Holly. God bless you. Thank you once again for sharing with us. I truly enjoy your videos. If you don't mind Ms. Holly , I would really love your prifessional opinion on sonething. I think that I told you before , that I don't make soap to sale , but that I do so to keep mine and my family's skin more healthy. I've been making myself a soap and its a softer bar than most soap. I use a glycerine base with avocado and lemon juice for my face. I am a great grandmother , and I have a few dark spots that I've been treating with this soap. However , it turns out to be a very soft soap and I was womdering if you could offer any advice on how to make it a bit harder so that its not so squishy. I sure would appreciate your opinion on this matter. Thank you!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you Joy! Unfortunately, I am not familiar with glycerin soap bases so I can't offer any true advice. My thoughts are that maybe there is too much being added to the base. In cold process soap, lemon juice can also make soap soft. But again, I don't work with glycerin soap base so I can't really say.
I didn't even notice any flaw in your makeup. Maybe it's because I pretty much stopped wearing makeup at the beginning of the plague. What's the cost of living like up there? I'm asking because WA was horrid, and when my mom passes, I want to move. Seeing your dogs wiggling around at the end made me miss my dog.
Thank you Brenda! The cost of living up here has gotten very bad but without the income to go along with it. It seems we moved up here in a transitional period as it was increasing all over the country. Missouri had lower housing prices but we also sold our house for a lot more than we bought it for and it funded a lot of this journey. At the same time, the cost of living was already higher here and it has continued to grow. Our little cabin is already appraised at almost a million and I'm nervous about paying property taxes on it. Believe you me...it's only worth a third of that number and that's why we are building it ourselves. We couldn't afford to move up here unless we built our own home and lived in the camper while we were at it. The cost to build this cabin has also almost doubled from our neighbor contractor pricing it out in the summer of 2023 to the summer of 2024.

One of these days I’m gonna get lucky enough to run into you when your out and about in town! 😊
That would be something!
Love love love the vlog!!! ❤ I was excited to hear you might make more natural soaps in the new year! Would you please make a tallow JUICY essential oil blend soap? I want to buy it!!

Happy, way belated, Birthday to you. I hope you had a good one.
Thank you Dawn!
You are living my dream. I wish I had a cabin. Love your Doberman. My Dobie(Blk n tan)is Shannon. I have 2 dogs. Champ is my red Dobie.
I can't even believe that this was the better option for us financially. So I'm really excited to have a cabin in the woods of MT. I bet your puppies are the best!
Happy belated birthday 🎉

Thank you Clivia! I was able to get an order in at Vine Vida. I was pretty excited about that. I forgot Palmarosa though! Do you mean Azure Standard?
@ yes azure standard. Vine vita is too expensive imo
@ I am not seeing that Azure has any bulk coconut or essential oils. Funny story, we visited that family back in the 90’s and stayed the night with them. I don’t even know why. 😬 I have compared prices and find Vine Vida to be good compared to other suppliers. So interesting!
@@moriversoap I emailed my provider price list to you

My birthday was on the Sunday xx
Happy belated Birthday
Happy Birthday! I hope you had a fun day!
Jerika Zimmerman is a soaper. She has nice vlogs.
She does for sure! Love her!
Good lord, you’ve had the trouble of Job over there.
Sometimes it starts to feel like it. Montana was supposed to be our fresh start. It has been an adventure.
I didn't even notice any flaw in your makeup. Maybe it's because I pretty much stopped wearing makeup at the beginning of the plague. What's the cost of living like up there? I'm asking because WA was horrid, and when my mom passes, I want to move. Seeing your dogs wiggling around at the end made me miss my dog.

other than you I watch Royalty Soaps, Moriah Elizabeth and Nerdecrafter
Thank you for watching!
