I'm not really into the felted soaps but I literally went "awwwww" aloud when I caught sight of this felted mini monster. So adorable.

These soaps are AWESOME! Why is soap so addicting?????

Something delicious looking for today.

Why do I suddenly crave a root beer float?

I love soaps like the above. But when *I* use them, the components fall apart after the first or second use. Anyone else have that happen?

~HL~

That's what I meant by totally impractical. You spend so much time cleaning up the shower floor that it is just not worth it.

Ah, Saturday.

I can't really see my thumbnail pics because they are so small, so some days are surprises for me as well as to what I post.

I totally have a mold for these! I've only made lotion bars in them so far. I need to make some cute soaps!

Wow Jules! Did you make the mold yourself or did you buy it?

I found it at Home Goods actually. It was for ice cubes, but works all the same.

I'll make some this weekend and share it.

I'm still trying to wrap my head around the last two.... Wow....just wow....

If I ever get a little too impressed with myself, I just come in here and I feel the inferiority pretty darn quickly ;-)

It's still worth it for the inspiration and awe though!

Exactly! Right when I think I've seen the peak of technical soapmaking ... nope!

Looking forward to the weekend!

All those calendula petal give me the shivers, thinking about washing with that soap, but it is still worth looking at.

For today,

For today,

fwiw
the woman that created this soap, known as iben, is most likely the first person to post a salt bar recipe online. she pretty much came up with the idea and although it's rarely done now, she used a 5% SF.
she was also the first person i remember using a tall skinny mold some time before 2004. hers were all custom made as most suppliers didn't sell them then.

She obviously has a cleaner who is happy to clean up the calendula leaves after everyone uses that soap!
