Stained glass soap

I've been saving my most colourful soap off-cuts to make this pretty, stained-glass effect in a batch of soap. The base is chock full of skin-loving french green clay, and it's scented with a blend of lavender, petitgrain, clary sage and juniper berry. Quite fresh and floral, and pretty I think!

... also just a quick update on the limited edition Christmas soaps: Candy Cane has sold out. If you didn't get your chance to grab one of these, don't fret, I have another batch curing to be ready by 2nd December.

  3. Oh Erin, these are so inspired and beautiful! I will be featuring a Danish soap maker soon, who has done similar work but more somber in color. Has your stained glass soap got a name yet?
    Also, I must be a lucky one because as I write this Candy Cane is sitting in its whole loveliness in front of me :)

    Julia - no it doesn't have a name yet. I was thinking maybe 'Sea Glass'.

  12. Very pretty! I'm adding it to my list of "soaps to try next" I like the name "confetti" that Lori mentioned.

  13. So pretty! You have just the right amount of "bits" in there. And the colors are lovely.
