Milk Soap

March 7, 2017March 7, 2017 SilverHill Soapery

I was really surprised when my son asked me for more face soap. I didn’t even know he’d been using the bars I’d made a few months ago! He believes they are helping his skin, and I can’t even tell you how happy that makes me! My son is using my soap because he likes it and believes it’s helping, not just because it’s the soap his mom made. #overthemoon

When he asked me about making more, I said, “Sure! What non-black color would you like?” Every soap I’ve made him he asks for black. *sigh* His response this time was, “Non-black? Well, white then!” I guess he’s officially grown out of his “everything must be red and blue to match Spiderman” phase. In a way, I’m going to miss that.

So, in keeping with his simple tastes and because this is for both him and his sister, I made a lovely, white, coconut milk soap, scented with Milk fragrance oil.

Something about the clean, simple look to these bars, and the fresh scent, makes it a truly beautiful soap to me.

Cut Soap, Finished Soap, Soap

Gleaming, cut

February 10, 2017 SilverHill Soapery

Finally! Cutting day has arrived! This is what Gleaming looks like on the inside.

Gold, silver, copper, and pearl stars.

Scented with clover and aloe from BrambleBerry. It’s a fresh scent, neither masculine nor feminine but a really nice clean scent. I’m halfway considering leaving a bar sitting on my desk just to enjoy the fragrance, lol.

I love how the light shines through the stary embeds!

This has been a really fun soap to make, and I have so many ideas for this “theme.” I can’t wait to get started on the next one!

Soap

Gleaming

February 8, 2017February 8, 2017 SilverHill Soapery

I am so excited! I have been planning this soap for weeks, and now it’s finally done! Once I had the idea, it was a process of gathering everything I needed – the molds, the colors, etc.

My daughter and I were talking last night about movies, drawing, and writing and she said, “That feeling of seeing something you’ve had in your head become real is awesome.”

“I know!” I replied, pointing to my recently finished soap.

To her, it wasn’t quite the same thing, because soap is not a movie. But I suspect any other soaper would get it. 🙂
