spuma di casa



these are the teatree household soaps i made. the name means something like "bubbles of the home" in italian.

i used to make a liquid soap for my hand-wash laundry. the liquid soap was used up and i was lazy to make another batch. so i played around with my recipes and made this household soap with a large coconut oil content. this makes the soap very hard in texture, and therefore long-lasting for use. coconut oil also makes the soap bubbly. so this will give a very rich lather when wash. i added a little bit of teatree and eucalyptus essential oils for disinfecting purposes. this is meant to be an all-purpose soap for use in the home - can also be used to wash dishes and even baby bottles and clothes, as it does not contain harmful substances. it is listed here if you are interested.

these are quite chunky pieces of soap, cut at around 95g each. this is the first time i used an acrylic soap stamp. i think it looks very nice. i also string the soaps with a linen cord so that it can be hung up to dry between uses.
