Ivory Bar Soap - Any Uses?

[PaintyLiz]

This is the only place I could think of to post this -

I have a bunch of ivory bars. Being frugal, I don't want to throw them out now that I am making beautiful homemade soaps.

Is there anything I can do with the ivory? They are pretty old so should be dry. I was using them for my laundry detergent (not great idea, I have learned!)

Any suggestions? Thanks!!

I had a bunch of bar soap, and did what someone here recommended - put each bar in a new zip baggie with a brand new wash cloth and donated them to our local shelter.

There is a program this time of year called Operation Christmas Child. You fill a box with items for a child and the organization ships them off to be distributed. As well as fun things, they are looking for personal hygiene items, like soap. Here are the details:

I love OCC. Working on my box! Definitely one of my soaps in there!

I have six bars of Dial pre-soap making and that's only because I had to hide it all to force my husband to try my soap; he absolutely does NOT like change. I call it 'apocalypse' soap and will use it for trade when SHTF...or I donate it the next time I clean out the back of the bathroom cabinet.
