Natural Handmade Soap "Mosaic Mint"

Handmade Soap, just-cut, Limited Edition "Mint Mosaic" 99.5% natural soap, with the fresh cooling essential oils of peppermint, cornmint & spearmint.

I've seen other soap ladies use "pieces" from previous batches as imbeds; Jen @Naturalmente Mediterraneo and AYU @ Tokyo Factory come to mind immediately.  This is only my second batch done this way, but I'm happy with the result!  For some reason the pics all turned out a bit "fuzzy"...not sure why, but after many attempts and much gnashing of teeth I have given up for today!

Only 14 bars -ready to ship 8-22-12. Pre-orders accepted. To reserve your bar(s) -please email becky@heirloomsoapworks.com

Soap "Art" from Great Cakes Soapworks

O.K. by now you all know I love pretty, artistic & unique soaps.  I try to make mine that way, but every once in a while you have brush with true artistry -something that's so cool it must be seen!

 Here's such a soap: "Almost Paradise" from Amy Warden at Great Cakes Soapworks!  Is it cool, or what?

Here's a link to her site - the story of how she made this beauty is worth the read.  A lot of effort went into this batch, and I'm so happy that it turned out so well!

My husband and son are equally impressed with this bar.   They both commented "That is REALLY cool!"   Which, of course, it is!  Great job Amy!
