Girl’s Week


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. 
Melting the Soap Base

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

A few of the beautiful finished soaps
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.
