Personalized Soap

The other day I made some soaps with pictures and graphics placed in them.  One thing I really love about these soaps are that the possibilities for shapes, sizes, and embeds are infinite. 


The photo will stay in the soap through several uses.  The photo is printed onto water soluble paper, so it’s more than skin deep, shall we say.  However, as the soap is used, the photo will slowly disappear. 


The possibilities with this are endless.  The beach scenes are scented with a fun fragrance that smells like a carful of friends on their way home from the beach (minus the sweat).


Lettering can also be included, so dates, names and sayings can also be embedded.  In the future, I'll offer additional designs.  Customized versions of these with words and/or photos would be great for wedding favors, shower favors, hostess gifts, anniversary gifts, birthday gifts, and so on.

Soap On A Stick

Glycerin soap base offers endless possibilities for crafting and creating.  It's fun to work with and fun to try different things.  So far, I have made soap on a stick to resemble fudge bars, orange cream bars, semi-transparent popsicles, and swirled smoothie type bars.   

The name of this soap was inspired by the Iowa State Fair, where you can find all kinds of food on a stick.  Instead of food on a stick that you can eat, this is soap on a stick that your skin will love. 

The decorative and functional soap is made from a glycerin base that is full of lather and cleaning power.  With lots of natural goodness, this soap is sure to be a welcome treat for skin anytime of the year.  Soap on a Stick weighs 3 ounces and is the size of a regular Popsicle. 

You can see more about this fun soap at www.soapartonline.com.

ROY G BIV Soap

I love rainbows.  I also love soap.  So I just had to make a rainbow soap.  I call it ROY G BIV soap.  It’s fun to make and the house smells so good while I’m making it.  I made a full loaf each of sample size and full size bars.  Each layer has its own wonderful fragrance.  Here’s what each layer is:

Red: Cherry
Orange: Orange
Yellow: Lemon
Green: Lime
Blue: Blueberry
Indigo: Blueberry Grape
Violet: Grape Soda

The overall effect of the different scented layers is wonderful.  It can be a little tricky to make. Each layer must be poured at just the right temperature so it doesn’t melt the existing layers.  It’s also important that the already poured layers don’t harden too much before the next layer is added so the layers adhere to each other.

I am offering this soap for sale on www.soapartonline.com in the sample size bar, full size bar, sample loaf and full size loaf. 



Thanks for reading!
