Vacation soaps

Along with buying vacation yarn, I also buy vacation soaps.  In Ireland we saw this in a souvenir shop, and thought it was very appropriate.  Sheep hold a special place in knitters hearts.  

Then, at a souvenir shop at the Cliff of Moher, of all places, my father found this.  I love getting vacation soaps that use local materials, Wild Irish seaweed seemed cool and interesting.  

The only problem with vacation soaps is I never want to use them.  

Speaking about soaps that are wedding related, after we came back from our wedding trip, we had a party here in Ottawa.  So, of course I had to make soap as a wedding favor.  

We had a castle theme for our wedding reception, so I made a castle out of card stock.  each one had a roof that had our names and the date.  These soaps are saponified olive, coconut and palm oil.  The green ones are Bamboo scented and the pink ones are Berry.  I ended up with a lot left over from the party, so they will be for sale in my Etsy shop.  

I made a new batch of soap a few days ago, I will show you that tomorrow.
