Soap Making


I was able to sit in on a soap making workshop at Make, because I work for the owner, Diana Rupp. The workshop was run by the folks at Meow Meow Tweet, a handmade soap company in Brooklyn. They were an adorable soap making team.
The photo above is of the cut up soap from the class. I packaged it up for my sister and my parents (shh! it's a surprise). Also in the photo is the bar of soap they instructors gave me for helping out. It is a fennel, orange and oat bar with a goose print on the packaging.




Class!


Below is the soap in our bodega coffee cup molds. (We ran out of milk cartons.)

We made two different flavors. Lemon and ... well ... I don't remember, but it smells great!

Out of the mold.

Soap making was a surprisingly easy process. It's not going to be my new craft of choice, though. If you have soap needs, check out their website. It's super cute!
