Soap making

I was in a craft shop yesterday when I saw a soap making display. I couldn't resist having a go when I saw a starter kit on sale!

The kit has soap base, fragrance, moulds and flower/herbs that are dried.

Here is my soap after pouring it:





It looked a bit like marmalade!


It set very quickly and a couple of hours later could pop them out of the moulds:


Then I thought I should pretty them up:


I used Spice Cake papers and ribbon etc to decorate them. I'm really pleased with the result and may investigate making more!!
