Soap Flakes(Ivory)
Water
Food Coloring
Measuring Cup
Mixing bowl
Spoon
Various cookie cutters (hearts, roses, leaves, etc)
Yarn/ribbon
Plastic wrap
Instructions:
Mix 2 Cups of soap flakes into mixing bowl. Add a few drops of food coloring into 1/4 Cup of water Add water to soap and mix until soap is evenly colored. If mixture is sticky add more soap, if mixture is to dry add more water. A stiff dough like consistency is what you're trying for. These measurements are pretty close though. Flatten mixture on clean surface and cut out shapes with cookie cutters. Place shapes on plate and let air dry for 2 days. Place several shaped soaps in plastic wrap or in jars and decorate with yarn or ribbon These are also nice for kids' craft fairs wrapped in saran wrap for the season & tied with a bow. You can also place them in mason jars with raffia bows. Make autumn colors for great fall gifts (orange, browns, tans & greens) creating leaves that resemble an autumn drive. Make a bunch of pumpkin shapes, ghost shapes, cats & bats to create scary suds.
