My favorite to look at is the grapefruit and peppermint because of the swirls but the cinnamon and the lavender sound and I bet smell amazing. These are works of art. I hope you enjoy some in the tub and don't toss all of them into your unmentionables drawer ;)<br />Happy Weekend,<br />Kate Kate Yetterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12753398916038349242noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14359045.post-48949519585119832312017-11-10T21:40:36.716-06:002017-11-10T21:40:36.716-06:00Well done!

It looks like a fascinating process, with useful results!!! I like how you can make different scents, but also color them to match a plac if you were really into that. And, i looks like you had a fun time with Scott and it was a good way to spend a day. I think that is the most important of them all. :) Happy Friday. Hope you are warmer than we are here in NH.The wind is whipping up the leaves (feel like I am in the middle of a mixing bowl while prepping a bake) and we even had some snow flurries. Oh my.

Grapefruit swirl, orange bergamot, cinnamon, rose - they sound marvellous and look good too.

With this cut they are wonderful special! I think you and Scott could make more and sell them as the best organic handmade-soap on markets! I nearly can smell the rose, cinnamon, grapefruit and lavender! Divine!<br />I am sure you get lather on your bath pouf and I bet you have enough soap for the next 10 years then. I used up some soap bars years ago that a friend gifted me - and I used it on a bath pouf, what worked really fine and the 5 or 6 bars were good for at least 2 years for me. Much more frugal than using shower gel.<br />Happy showering with this wonderful fragrancies.<br />Thank you for sharing the process and photos with us -<br />really much work and thinking about the process in this yummie soap bars!<br />Have a good start of the weekend my friend!<br />Susifroebelsternchenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06501600240752195171noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14359045.post-47265718083131078062017-11-10T00:29:14.710-06:002017-11-10T00:29:14.710-06:00The soap looks like candy now, and I am sure it wa...The soap looks like candy now, and I am sure it was a lot of hard work.
