Soap

Kae and I tried to make soap today.

Tried.

I found directions on how to make soap without lye. Which I thought would be easier for kae. 

We used:

1/4 cup water
1/2 tsp vanilla essential oil
1 1/2 cups soap flakes (ivory)
1/4 cup quick rolled oats

I boiled the water and added the oil, and a few drops of food coloring then added it to the soap bits kae had shredded in an aluminum foil dish (disposable!) and we stirred it up. Then added the oatmeal.  
I spooned it into an old juice concentrate can to harden. We have to wait 4 days now. She's impatient.



I smell like vanilla.
