Spring and some new soaps

I have spring fever! The weather is slowing warming up and the flowers are starting to bloom. I can't wait for summer!

In the meantime, I've been working on more soaps. I thought the new Lemon cream Soap was a great new springtime addition. It smells so good and is so bright and cheery. I was pleasantly surprised how much I like this scent.



I also made some lavender soaps. I'm not a big lavender fan, but it smells so soothing and relaxing.



I've been making peep soaps like crazy. I had to get a picture of all of them lined up. A little peep army ready to fight the forces of dirt. lol I have one little lone black peep. This little guy was an accident - the vanilla fragrance turned. I must have missed putting stabilizer in it. I couldn't resist adding him in for the picture.

  1. I really like your lemon soap. Did you use melt & pour for the clear layer and cold process for the rest? Was it hard to make? It looks very spring-like and refreshing :-)

  2. Hi Linda, again, sorry for the delay. I have been busy with jury duty the past week and a half.

    I used all melt and pour for this soap. The base is goat's milk with a touch of brown coloring. The yellow layer is goat's milk as well. The thin, clear yellow layer is glycerin base. It is topped off with whipped goat's milk for the frosting look. I had to make it in several stages. I just love how it smells! I was pleasantly surprised at how well I liked the fresh, lemon scent.
