Another two dozen. This time it is bars of soap. I tried to tint half the batch with Wilton's powder, but it clumped in odd ways.

Our latest batch of soap. The long hunk is a super-fatted mild coconut. The bars in the front are "Serenity". It has been a while since I've used any scents, but I really like the result this time.

Part 2 of our triple soap batch.

Soap day! This time we did a triple batch. This first portion includes our standard coconut milk recipe- that large hunk in the back. Also, we did a portion with some cinnamon. It smells so yummy! Like a bar of sweet baked treats!

Some cold-process soap. This is scented with grapefruit, lemon, and oatmeal. I really enjoy making soap!

Some fun lanolin soap in the shape of a sheep. I used a new recipe and a new sheep shape mold this time. Fun! I can only make one at a time this way, but still so cute and worth it! (This soap is great to wash wool items with.)

I knew I'd eventually try this. Homemade laundry soap. This is the powder form, there is also a recipe for the liquid/gel. I've been using it for a week, so it looks like this would be a 2-3 week supply. Pretty inexpensive and easy to make. Seems to work fine on the clothes too.

Difficult to see, these are whats left of our 'soap petals'. Single-use handwashing flower petals that are soaked in soap. We made a whole batch of red and white ones as a gift and packaged them in a pretty glass bowl.

Uh-oh. I just noticed this half used bar of soap is the last from the 30 or so bars I made more than a year ago. Time to make more. I could really use a buddy when doing this- anyone free?
