My fair Lady....

just you wait Henry Higgings!! is my favorite line in My Fair Lady, I say this line whilst waiting for new soap to harden....the latest one was cut this morning ( a little early  I know ) after 24 hours,( should be 48 but tooo impatient ) and it is so the bestest prettiest, most gorgeous smelling soap we have ever removed from our moulds.......I Simply LOVE IT.  ;-)
Initially named `Decadance` because it contains shea butter, avocado butter & mango butter, along with olive oil, coconut & castor...& more
  now after seeing it in it`s fullness we have now had a change of heart & decided `Carnival`is more fitting, this is a totally wild soap with a crazy mad burst of life, if Bertie Bassest made soap it would look like this...anyway it`s late , it`s bedtime & tomorrow we have a market day, so log in tomorrow to see the latest..such a tease

I have a sweet smelling dream ;-))

It`s funny... some days you get up and you know what you have to do, mainly because it`s your daily routine. Brush your teeth, have a shower, eat your toast, go to work etc....

Soap making is a break from that routine, & we love it!


 I suppose most crafty people wake up & feel like they must put their dreams into action - some of the time we do & it`s a complete disaster!, but we have a go anyway ;-)


Making cold process soap is often a task full of surprises, good results are due to the balance of all the factors & a great deal of planning!! This is a picture of our next soap in the first stages.  At this point its called 'Decadance'.

Dozens of curls are hand sliced then `stuffed` like cannelloni with mini pink balls, we think they look a bit like licorich allsorts


Colours, shapes & textures are key to giving our traditionally made soap that `quirky` look.
With the addition of a wide varied recipe book we choose to mix the oils with beautiful luxury butters such as avocado butter, mango butter, shea butter & cocoa butter, to make your skin feel great.
Over the next few days we shall post the progress of Decadance.
