Lavender Soap
Lavender Soap

Skill level easiest:



1. Grate about 5 oz (125g) of unperfumed soap. Good way to use up

those little unwanted pieces.



2. Place two or three big handfuls of lavender in a teapot or bowl

(adult supervision if a child) pour in two cups of boiling water.

Stir the mixture around and let it steep for a few minutes.



3. Pour some cold water into a saucepan, than place a smaller pan

in it. The water level should reach halfway up the side of the smaller

pan.



4. Place the larger pan on the stove. (again adult supervision)

Pour the grated soap and a little of the lavender water into the small

pan.



5. Heat slowly until the soap has melted. Add more of the lavender

water if necessary.



6. Remove both pans from the heat. Add about three tablespoons

of oatmeal to the soap mixture and than stir well.



7. Grease two small molds or cookie cutters with butter or

petroleum jelly (vaseline) and place them on a sheet of wax paper.



8. Carefully spoon in the soap mixture and smooth it down the top

with the back of a hot spoon. (Run the spoon under hot water to keep

it warm) Let the soap dry, This can take up to a week.



9. When the soaps are dry, take them out of their molds and leave

them for a month in a dry place on some tissue paper.
