Doggies

My mom and her dogs have been staying with our family for the last few weeks. Here are the twin sisters Iris and Jasmine. They are Dogo Argentinos - aren't they the cutest? And there is Lilly the Westie in the background on the chair. She's the boss of everyone, 

And here is photo of our dog Miles, a Catahoula Hound dog. He's one spoiled dog. One of these days I need to make dog soap just for them.

Apple Butter Caramel - Oh yeah

Hello all! I wanted to share my Apple Butter Caramel soap with you. This is a goat's milk soap and the scent  has a great balance of caramel and apples. Here it is just poured in mold. I left the bulk of the soap natural and then put a layer of soap lightened with titanium dioxide on the top. Then I drizzled with some remaining natural soap and some colored with a rich cappucino mica. Looks like food doesn't it?

Just out of the mold you can see the natural soap already turning a caramel color - I sure wish it would have stayed that way! 

And here it is four weeks later. It's darkened up quite a bit. I still love the look of it though - a great fall soap. Oh and it still smells amazing!
