"In the land of goats milk and honey......."

"In the land of goats' milk and honey" there can only ' bee' an assortment of beautiful handmade soaps for me! Soaps that are made from goats milk, honey, olive oil, shea and cocoa butters and essential oils etc..... This is the second soap award that I am extending to a fellow blogger and welcoming commenter. In the short time that I have come to know her, she has expressed her feelings and feedback that has made me feel part of this vast blogosphere! Thank you Reeni!

I was setting out to my studio pondering on how to make a soap that would resemble a piece of honeycomb. The answer was staring right at me, when I looked up at the bees nest embedded in the roof of my studio. The honeycomb bar turned out to be a "killer" interpretation because it so happened that a killer bee gave me the inspiration that I needed ( okay, even I realize that this is wayyyy corny!) I molded the "comb" separately and embedded it into a 3D mold.

'The Lily of the valley' soap bar has the softest and most intoxicating aroma. It is a bit complicated to make, especially since you have to mold the lily first and then do a second pouring of the white goats milk soap base without making the colors "run."

The' corkscrew' smells just like the ocean and I literally had to 'paint' the pearl lustre to give it a luminous shell. It hangs from a string of 'pearls.' See also:

Did you know that the bee acts as a biological filter : they die if they come into contact with toxins and thus do not bring pollutants into the hive!
A thin coat of honey can be applied to the skin to disinfect and heal minor skin wounds and chapped lips. Honey can also help calm the mind and promote rejuvenating sleep...all according to "Nature's Remedies."

Honey has helped me desensitize my allergies!
