New additions to Our Soap Family

A new addition to the soap family; dinosaur soaps. Reptile and dinosaur soaps are made from a glycerine soap base. Plus, you can see inside of them!

Little Lamb Soap

I finally got my lamb mold and here are a couple of the Little lambs I made recently. Three of them are glycerine soaps and the light green is regular homemade soap. I used something called 'Sweetgrass' scent on the glycerine ones. Sweetgrass is a captivating scent, although it is not my favorite.

Soap Making Season

   This is just a little note to ask those of you who are considering giving soaps for presents and gifts this year, to send me a message and let me know how much soap you want and what kinds you would like to have. Soap takes about 3 weeks to cure and I want to make sure that I have enough available, especially during the holidays coming up. Thanks.

Here is a basic menu of the soaps:
Goat's milk-oatmeal soap (rectangular, shaped, rough cut, smooth)
Fancy soap - (Flowers, round, oval, shaped)
Volcano soap - (rectangular, some shaped) Volcano soap is a Lava like soap, but reddish-orange in color. Made with pumice.
Glycerine soap - Egg shaped with reptile (snake, frog, or lizard) inside

New Soap Scent - Sounds Delicious!

I am about to embark on a new scent for my fancy soaps. I actually ordered this scent with the Reptile soap in mind. It is kid friendly, and will make the soap appealing (a peeling) to kids. I have been intrigued by this scent ever since I saw it described at www.elementsbathandbody.com

Here is their description:

Fruity, tropical medley of fresh bananas (of course!), tangerine, mixed berries, pineapple, kiwi, mango & papaya with a dash of vanilla. Easy on the banana with a perfect blend of sweetness. The name may not be appealing, but the fragrance is incredible!

BATH & BODY SAFE: YES

The name of this scent is 'Monkey Farts Fragrance'. I thought it would sound a peeling to all of you.
Well, at least the description is!

The problem is, that it might make me hungry, when I smell the finished soap!

So, ....... What do you think?

Goat's Milk Oatmeal Soap available in Both Rough Cut and Smooth

Just an update to let you know that both the rough cut soaps and the smooth are available for the Goat's-Milk Oatmeal Soap. (Smooth is in limited quantities right now). Also, I have some Chai Goat's-Milk Oatmeal Soap as well.
Coming soon: Sheep shaped soap. I found a cute sheep soap mold and will use that with the fancy soaps. Will take pictures.
Goat's-Milk Oatmeal soaps are $3.00 a bar. If interested in purchasing, send an email to awestruck@bellsouth.net
If you live in the Central Florida area, I may be able to get the soap to you in order to save postage (postage seems to be getting higher everytime I order something!) Let me know and we can talk about a meeting place. Thanks.
