| My art skills surprised me ;) |
I love this mold. It is actually used to sort and store jewellery. It make great guest size soaps. And yes, I still see a soap mold in every container. :)
Scented with Orange EO and Lavender FO and colored with turmeric and cocoa powder. A vegetable soap with coconut, palm, sunflower and wheatgerm oils.
More soaps in my next post...adios!!

More soaps in my next post...adios!!

Great Idea, the soap looks really beautiful!!!
You can get rid of the soda ash if you hold the soap top just for a few seconds over some steam, like a water kettle or an ironing thing.
