I've been trying to get a giveaway going here on SoapMakingForum so it's with great exuberance I announce the formation of the Hoosier Wood Works White Oak Soap Rest Giveaway!

SMF-Soap-Rest-1.jpg

From Hoosier Wood Works:
Extend the life of your favorite bath soap with this white oak soap rest. White oak is the strongest, most rot-resistant wood in North America and will last for years. Wide, deep grooves allow water to drain away and air to circulate around your bar of soap, extending its useful life. No more “gucky” soap!

If a lot of soap residue does build up on the soap rest, simply toss it into the laundry! Each soap rest is sanded and left unfinished - no oils to go rancid, no finish to wear away.And don't worry about this soap rest rotting away like pine and other species of wood will. This soap rest will be around for a looong time!

Makes a great gift, especially when combined with a bar of homemade soap. Sold in sets of three to maximize shipping rates. Each soap rest is about 3/4" x 2" x 3-1/2". Makes a great thank you gift at wedding showers!

Fun Fact: After the American Revolution, The US Navy chose the plentiful white oak to construct the nation’s ships. Departing from the British method of using white oak only for the structural members of ships--ribs and keelson--American ship builders also used white oak to blank the hull. When war came again in 1812, the USS Constitution astounded the British admiralty when cannon balls fired upon her “bounced off as if she was made of iron,” hence the Constitution’s nickname, Old Ironsides.

Ooo this is nice! Love those holders!

And the fun facts is cool too..heard of Ironsides, but never knew they were made of oak..how cool is that? :)
 
Thanks Hoosier!

Also, it was interesting to read about the USS Constitution. I had heard of "Old Ironsides" but I had forgotten if I even knew how it got the nickname.

Hop over to the Photo Gallery and give compliments or just say hello to new people in the Intro section. ;)

Is this naughty of me to suggest?
