Welcome to my Webpage and to my COLD PROCESS HAND SOAP section!

I have been making soap for over 10 years.  I started making our family's hand soap and have been making hand soap to see in shops and online.  I love making soap!  I love trying different techniques, different swirl designs and have recently added making soap dough and then crafting items to embellish my soap with soap dough.

There is no soap dough with this particular soap.

FALL is in the air!  I just noticed the changing of the leaves this week and they are changing every day!  

This soap is inspired by everything Fall - the falling leaves, homemade soup, chili, pumpkins in the fields and gardens, and Halloween as well as Thanksgiving rapidly approaching!  The scent of the bar is enticing - brown sugar and pumpkin and the color reminds me of fresh baked pumpkin pie!

The soap is made of coconut oil, palm oil (self-sustained), olive oil, castor oil, distilled water, lye, pumpkin puree, Brown Sugar Pumpkin fragrance oil and Copper Sparkle mica.  The last ingredient is that each bar of soap is made with lots of love! 

The weight of each bar is approximately 4.5 ounces.

The watermelon seeds are made of soap dough!

Watermelon soap, what?  Yes, it is a watermelon soap!  First of all, the scent on this is delightful.  I make a point of trying each and every soap I make.  This is the current soap in the house, and it is so good.  Definitely one of my husband's favorites.  It is a more difficult soap to make with the 3 layers of colors.  I admit the white layer because it is the thinnest was a challenge for me.  The bottom layer is made of two different greens. The middle is a white layer and the top layer is so cool. It even has embedded watermelon seeds throughout this layer.  The embeds are made from a soap dough I made.  On top of the sculpted top are more watermelon seeds as well as starry ecological glitter.  

The seed embeds go all the way through the soap, from first wash to the last!

This soap is made with olive oil, coconut oil, shea butter, distilled water, lye and a combination of two fragrance oils, Cucumber Melon and Black Raspberry Vanilla. Magenta mica was the colorant as well as Woodland Green and Lime Green Mojito.

Approximate weight of each bar is 3.6 ounces.

This is another adventure with soap dough and embeds.  I pictured a dark blue night sky as the back drop with 3 tiny white stars in the sky.  In the center is a big orange pumpkin with 2 shades of green for the stem.  The embeds are premade with soap dough which is made from soap batter and then colored and placed in an air tight container for a few days and then manipulated by introducing heat into the dough which loosens up and becomes malleable to shape.  I was lucky to have a pumpkin mold to premake the pumpkin and then add a formed stem on the top as well as to extrude the 3 white stars.  Both of these embeds go the entire length of the soap loaf and the design is present in most stages of use (there may be a delay for the stars on one side as the embeds sometimes shift but it should appear soon after using the bar.  

The ingredients for this soap are:  Olive oil, shea butter, coconut oil, distilled water, lye, Cardamom Pumpkin fragrance oil; Orange, white, and 2 green micas for coloring.  Each bar is made with lots of love.

Estimated weight of each soap bar is 4.8 ounces.

As a gardener, I always planted calendula in my flower garden. The mix of yellow and orange blossoms was always a striking combination.  I had read that the dried petals could be put into soap both as a coloring agent and as an herb.  I have a bunch of dried calendula and chopped the dried blossoms up and used them in a batch of soap!  It provided a very soft pale yellow color to the soap.

The soap is made of sodium hydroxide, distilled water, dried calendula petals, coconut oil, shea butter, cocoa butter, olive oil, castor oil, Garden party fragrance oil and lots of love!

Estimated weight of each soap bar is 4.5 ounces.

This bar of soap takes my breath away.  It swirls in all directions - side to side, crossways and diagonally.  The colors are a combination of neon colorants that were softy muted but they are mesmerizing.  It is a smaller bar but time consuming with this swirl.  

The ingredients are as follows:  Sodium hydroxide, olive oil, coconut oil, shea butter, distilled water, titanium dioxide, Neon mica pigments of blue, hot pink and House Party Purple; Garden Party fragrance oil and Into the Mystic biodegradable glitter and lots of love!

Sea shells, see shells down by the sea shore was running through my mind as I was thinking about what kind of soap did I want to make and this is what I came up with.  I had a bunch of white soap dough that I used to make some sea shells to place on top of each bar and some nice biodegradable glitter to sprinkle on top and I got to work!

I premade sea shells out of homemade soap dough which has similar ingredients to the soap base I used.

Ingredients used were Olive oil, coconut oil, olive oil, sodium hydroxide, distilled water, shea butter, titanium dioxide, Sea Glass fragrance oil, biodegradable glitter and lots of love!

Estimated weight of each soap bar is 3.9 ounces

The jack o'lantern heads are made of soap dough!

Oh my goodness, this soap exceeded my expectations and I am so pleased with it!  I was looking for the last soap to complete my Halloween/Fall season and this is the way I wanted to finish up.  In my mind I pictured a jack O'Lantern sitting in the middle of the top of the soap with a Halloweeny color scheme and here we are!  The scent is intoxicating!  When the soap was first taken out of the soap loaf and cut, I built up the middle of each soap and placed a premade soap dough Jack O'Lantern piece with careful mounding up the pumpkin on all sides while the soap was still soft.  

Then we have the swirls.  I am still learning about swirls and these swirls are so awesome and so fit in with the color scheme and the Jack O'Lanterns.  I am so excited and I hope you are too!  

The ingredients for this soap are as follows:  Olive oil, coconut oil, shea butter, black and orange mica colorants, and scented with Witches Brew fragrance oil with a celebration of patchouli, cinnamon and cedarwood and lots of love!

Estimated weight of each soap bar is 4.4 ounces.

The ingredients used were olive oil, coconut oil, shea butter, sodium hydroxide, distilled water. The mica colorants are True Red, Gold Sparkle, and Woodland Green.  I also added holographic biodegradable stars, Elderberry and Evergreen fragrance oil and of course, LOTS OF LOVE!

Christmas is approaching!  I love this time of the year!  This is the second soap bar I have designed for this wonderful season.  

This is a pretty elaborate soap to make with three colors of swirls (red, white and green} throughout as well as a "swirly top", snowflake sparkle mica and dried cranberry seeds. Each soap bar is scented with a new fragrance I discovered, called Juniper Berry and Cedar and it is wonderful!  

The ingredients used were olive oil, coconut oil, shea butter, sodium hydroxide, distilled water and titanium dioxide.  The soap is scented with Juniper Berry and Cedar fragrance oil. The mica colorants are True Red, Woodland Green and white.  I also used a snowflake sparkle mica for the top along with dried cranberry seeds.  The last item is added to all of the soap bars that I make - LOTS OF LOVE!

This is my first attempt at doing an ocean/beach soap and I love how it turned out!  I can almost hear the roar of the waves and the pounding sound when a wave cuts and runs up the beach!  As a child my family spent 2 weeks mid summer at the Jersey Shore and those were 2 weeks of pure bliss! 

It was very important for me to show the layers of a wave with three colors - white, blue violet and an aqua turquoise.  I am just as excited by the sand layer which was made with a gold mica mixed with vanilla bean powder which I think definitely defined the grains of sand.  The top of each bar is equally spectacular with the blue colors and white defining the swirl of the sea.  

The ingredient used were olive oil, coconut oil, shea butter, distilled water, sodium hydroxide, titanium dioxide, there were 4 micas used - blue, green, white and gold sparkle as well as vanilla bean powder to help add color and dimension for the sand.  The scent I chose for this soap was very well-named - Sea Salt fragrance oil.  The best ingredient is always included in each bar of soap I create - LOTS OF LOVE!

Average weight of each soap bar is 4 ounces.

Shipping charges are per soap bar.

The coffee beans are made of soap dough!

Oh my goodness...this is a very special coffee soap - it is a hazelnut scented coffee soap and it is so delicious!  The swirl was just what I was hoping for and to top it all off, there are soap dough coffee beans and a little bit of biodegradable glitter on top!!

The leaves and sunflower is made of soap dough.

This should come as no surprise to anyone but I love sunflowers!  I chose The Sunflower Cupboard as the name of my business and I have painted many many items with sunflowers!  Also, when I had a garden, I planted lots of sunflowers!  

I wanted to make the soap a little extra special so I created a sunflower and leaf out of soap dough which I also made.  

It is scented with Vetiver fragrance oil, which is a complex scent and just lovely!

This soap would be a wonderful gift for a gardener (novice or expert) or of course anyone who just loves sunflowers, teachers, coworkers, family members....they sky is the limit!!  

I live in an apartment now and get compliments on how nice it is to go past my door and enjoy whiffs of whatever soap I have just made and of course, my apartment always is delightfully scented!
