Another Soap or Two

The dodgy weather continues… really its perfect winter weather. I am enjoying the gloom in a weird way.

So… what is underneath the soaps?
Time to cut

So pleased with this one. Simple, yet fairly striking.
I used lemongrass essential oil

I did two loaf soaps at once. First with the black, which I let set before doing the next batch to pour in the white – I didn’t want the colours to bleed through each other.

I didn’t quite get the perfect diagonal… but thats ok. I can live with less than perfect haha

The second loaf I added sprinkles – grated soap from older offcuts
I thought the straight divide of black and white might be a bit underwhelming compared to the diagonal.

Not too overdone

And they do smell really good!

I did have a little leftover mixture… so put it into one of my bee moulds

And I had forgotten about the leftover mixture I poured from the orange soap – it was in the freezer!! (The hard plastic mould is problematic but if I freeze it – pops out easy peasy!)
Love the colour blend!

Hope you all are doing well and have a fabulous weekend planned!
Cheers!
