Done


Here is the felted soap . The soap is from Sappo Hill. I am getting ready for the local Deerfield Valley Fair here in Wilmington. Also, preparing for the Vermont Sheep and Wool!
I spun the yarn that is on the pink. So much fun. This soap is great because it hasn't any corners. Such a joy to felt. I think this is my new gig for a while. A few soaps were tried, but this is the winner. For now anyway.

These are really pretty, and I bet they smell wonderful. I like round soaps too.

I'm not sure why, but felted soaps are always a hit for me at craft fairs. And, I even had the local Fox news station do a little piece on my felted soaps once. I think that they called them an "oddity" - LOL ;) I just wish that I liked making them more. I'd rather be doing jewelry or hats/scarves personally, but felted soaps feel wonderful.

Best wishes at your local fair!!

Thanks! Actually, the round soaps are a joy to felt when I am on a creative dry spell:)

okay...so the soap is NOT from you (been on computer too long...rubbing my eyes) But the felted yellow bowl in your shop? It is amazing. Oh wow!
