Having been inspired by the sweet pea soap<\/a> made by Amy at Tenth Avenue Soapworks for the piping challenge<\/a>, I decided to do something similar for a Mother’s Day soap. Last year I used the Sweet Pea & Rhubarb fragrance to make soaps for Valentines Day<\/a>, using an entirely different technique!<\/p>\n

Here’s the soap in the mold that I posted on the Great Cakes Soapworks Facebook page<\/a> yesterday:<\/p>\n

I had swirled all three of the colors on top into the base of the soap as well, so I was anxious to see how it turned out on the inside! Ta-da!! Here is a photo of some of the bars after they were cut today:<\/p>\n

I love the way the swirls turned out inside! I had to cut each of these by hand to make sure each bar would have a sweet pea on top, so they aren’t perfectly the same. I know, it’s shocking! A four-week cure time will make them ready on May 8th, and with Mother’s Day coming up the following weekend, it will be cutting it awfully close! <\/p>\n

So…I have decided to offer a pre-order on these. That means you can purchase them now, and I will ship them on May 8th. If you order the Sweet Pea & Rhubarb soap, you may add other things to your order to help off-set the cost of shipping, but it will ALL ship together on the 8th. Or you could have it shipped directly to your mom<\/em> – just put her name and address in the shipping address, and let me know what you’d like me to include in a note from you in the shipping instructions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
