300 Handcrafted Soaps: Great Melt & Pour Projects

Soaps fragrant with cinnamon, painted with natural colouring, stamped or laminated, that fizz in the bath, and even have a written message are included in the 300 easy-to-make soap recipes in this volume. All use a simple melt and pour technique, and any craft, grocery, health food or pharmacy should have the supplies you need: a glycerine or coconut soap base, fragrances, additives (such as flowers or green tea), colourants (spices, dried herbs, cosmetic-grade colour) and moulds. Special recipes include bee-shaped fruited honey bars; deliciously scented lemon sage scrub; a heart swirl with smaller decorative pieces embedded inside; a French cameo; the leaf-shaped mountain therapy blend with gold lustre powder; and many more.
