Eureka! The Lavender is LAVENDER!

Is there anything like a batch of natural lavender soap.....handmade....that actually turns out a pretty lavender color?!  I'm so excited ....I know for many of you this is no big deal, but I've had "issues" shall we say, in getting a "lavender" color (or anything close, for that matter.)

This is all natural soap, including the colorants.  I used both Alkanet Root Powder and Pink Clay to obtain this color.  I'm hoping that it stays this way, but of course only time will tell.

Here it is:

It's the closest I've been to a light dusty purple, which is what I wanted...so I'm pleased as punch with the outcome.  It's so nice when you try something and it actually works, isn't it?

Happy Soaping everyone!
