Let’s talk tallow!

Recently have decided to hopefully help better my skin to only use tallow products on my face, but with that comes sourcing tallow lotion and soap. The soap and lotion I have pictured here is from Prairie Siren who I’ve purchased soap and lotion from before, and she has such amazing products. But I wanted to put myself to the challenge and try to make my own not for sale, but just to see if I could do it. So I started my journey very late last night and I’m continuing it on today. To start, I am rendering the beef fat down. I’m using a leaf fat, which is kidney fat that I sourced from Yellowstone River Beef in Williston, North Dakota. I’m so excited to try this out, and I have been documenting the whole entire journey to hopefully educate others about how tallow is amazing for your skin and I’m hoping it helps clear my acne and gets me wedding ready by October. Stay tuned for some fun facts about tallow in the health benefits that come with it, but also make sure to check out Prairie Siren page, and look at her Etsy to order some products for yourself. I can testify that her products are very, very good and high-quality!

As I look back on this past year I notice how much I have grown.
I may have not furthered Western Winds as much as I would have liked, but I grew in other directions.
I decided on my future career and learned more in my past year of college.
I grew as an adult and connected back with my inner child as well.
This coming year will be full of many new experiences, but I look forward to my goals with this page and all other connected media.
Western Winds is and always will be a passion of mine, just finding my creative spark again has been difficult.
School has definitely burned me out, but I hope to hit the ground running again in 2025.
I hope to grow Western Winds, but also need to remember a step back never hurts and I will always come back stronger.
I appreciate everyone that follows me and supports me on this rocky road and I hope to expand what I started very soon!
This year has been full of great life changing experiences that have helped spring new ideas into fruition.
Keep your eyes out as I soon hope to start releasing all the new ideas I have been planning.

Merry Christmas from Western Winds!
We hope you have a safe, fun holiday with family and friends.
May the hot chocolate be warm and the sugar cookies be soft!
Keep the lord in your heart and celebrate the birth of our Savior!

“For to us a child is born, to us a son is given; and the government shall be upon his shoulder, and his name shall be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace" Isaiah 9:6

When I first started Western Winds, never would I have thought that I would need such a long time off to figure out life.

The funny part about it all is I never will have life figured out, so why not just keep going with what I got?

Finally I am ready to return to my roots and expand Western Winds fully.

I have a huge line up of projects I am working on and one of those is a YouTube channel and revamping the podcast!

We are starting the new year on the right foot and we are going to keep my vision and dream going!

Thank you for believing in me and following along with this journey!

Sincerely,
Layne Johnson ❤
