| Girl Scouts learn about cold-process soap making |
Last week was “Girl’s Week”. Girl Scout Troop #3010 watched
me make a cold process soap loaf and then we melted premade glycerin base and
the girls created their own soaps.

| Mixing colors and pouring molds |
They mixed the colors, poured and when it
cooled, un-molded. Their sense of color was amazing.

It was a joy to craft with
them and they went home with small gifts to wrap for friends and family.

| My lovely assistants |
A few days later the neighbor girls came over and after they
helped me pack Browse and Sniff boxes, we played at making lollipops out of
melt and pour soap base.

In between times, I managed to make some body butter.
By the way, this is the Lavender Citrus Soap the Scouts helped make.
