When I do face painting ( weekends gigs), one of my most requested designs from little girls is a unicorn. I have painted so many that I might be able to paint it with my eyes closed! So I thought it would be good to make a unicorn soap as well. Last time I made… Continue reading Unicorn soap
Ballerina soap front and back This last weekend I participated in a Christmas in July Show. One of the soaps designs I wanted to make sure I brought were these ballerina soaps.

In such a shopping trip last year, I found this gift box silicone mold at Michael's that I thought would be good for Valentine soaps, or any other special occasion soaps. I thought it would be cool if I made it resemble a Tiffany gift box.… Continue reading Gift Box Soap
Before getting into the soap, I will tell you about my weird dream, and then hopefully I can segue it into the soap theme. I woke up from what at first seemed a weird dream this morning. In my dream I had been given charge of three future babies (they had not been born yet).… Continue reading Dreamy Place Soap: Monet water lilies
