Elly! I would like to just stop and thank you for what you are doing, sometimes we take things for granted and do not appreciate how much time and effort this takes! Thanks once again and all the best

Massively helpful orientation to what the oils are all about; I have been wanting to get informed now that I e made my first 4 batches! Which I made thanks to you, Elly! And used your oil percentages to start from your beginner’s video. You are such a natural born teacher - clear and simple, yet tackling the complexities - and I experience you as guileless and kind and genuine and in earnest and your integrity shines through as well as a good heart. It’s gems like you that make the Internet a better place! Thank you for your efforts and generosity in gathering and sharing your knowledge in video as well as putting it in written form on your website! I will be the first to buy your books when they come out! Hint hint. :-) Anybody else agree?
