Description:
There are lovely molded soaps that one would hate to destroy by using. Browning's books are always great additions.--Library Journal Soaps fragrant with cinnamon, painted with natural coloring, stamped or laminated, that fizz in the bath, and even have a written message. These 300 beautiful, easy-to-make soaps are gentle on the skin and a charming addition to bathroom decor. All use a simple melt and pour technique, and any craft, grocery, health food or drug store will have the supplies you need: a glycerin or coconut soap base, fragrances, additives (such as flowers and green tea), colorants (spices, dried herbs, cosmetic-grade color), and molds. What's really special are recipes for bee-shaped fruited honey bars; deliciously scented lemon sage scrub; a heart swirl with smaller, decorative soap pieces embedded inside; a French cameo; the leaf-shaped mountain therapy blend with gold luster powder; and many more. A Selection of Crafter's Choice Book Club.

This is a hands on book which inspires the creative process. This is not a hold your hand step by step book. It gives you the basic information as well as tried and true recipes and encourages you to develop your own techniques. It is filled with helpful tips, information and pictures of the final products(very important!). It has proved a great addition to my arts and crafts library. I would definitely recommend if you are looking for design ideas.

This book has lots of great ideas to add variety to melt and pour soaps. To be honest, I won't need to buy another soap book to get ideas!
