Day 84: Use a bar of soap to make something new.


Hannah: I attempted to carve my visage onto a bar of soap.


Rachel: Soap carving turned out to be fun, although the smell of the soap didn't quite agree with me, and I exhaled carelessly once and blew soap flakes everywhere. Anyway, the shape of the bar lent itself to becoming a bow. I like the sparkly flakes leftover, so I attempted to make them part of the artwork as well.

  1. i can't imagine what kind of tool you used to carve so delicately on a bar of soap; it is wonderful...did you use the soap as soap or as something else?

  3. Maybe you think you look like me and I think I look like you or both. That is funny that you always think so. If is hard to carve a face on soap. I used expensive French soap, it didn't flake...it was so creamy. I think the type you used might be a bit easier. I love your present...what might be inside?
