Yesterday the school where I work had a half day and I wasted no time getting home to play in the soap room. My enthusiasm escalated with pure delight at the sight of a brown cardboard box waiting for me on the porch when I pulled in the driveway...new essential and fragrance oils! First out of the box...Lavender Essential Oil! This called for a triple batch & three molds to get through this soap making session.
Freshly poured Lavender Goat Milk Soap |
Purple swirls were dancing in my head...can you tell? These lovely logs of soap were made with Goat Milk using the same same formula I was playing with the night before. I was taking a huge gamble by making a triple batch before knowing how the goat milk was going to factor into the soap behavior. I love living on the edge sometimes, and this time it worked to my benefit.
Here is a closer look at one of the molds full of freshly poured soap. I love the white and purple contrast and cannot wait to see what the "inside" of the logs look like. It will have to wait until tomorrow as I will be busy tonight and no time for soaping. I am really holding out for a snow day tomorrow, we have not had one yet this school year and I am so ready to have one of those "unplanned" days off work. :)
