Hairy Soapball or Soapy Hairball??

(Yes, those are elephants)

So I recently decided that making homemade soap sounded like a lot of fun, and have made two batches so far. The first batch, a coffee soap, and the second batch, an herbal tea soap. LOTS of fun. I got braver with the second batch and instead of making bars, I used some silicone molds and rolled the rest of the "dough" into balls! I thought it would be fun to felt the balls, so here it is, a felted soap ball!

I think next time, I will use colors that don't make it look like it came out of a cat! Lol.
Enjoy, and look for some of these soaps to appear on Etsy in the next week or two :)

*Here they are! http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=38798085 In "Calico" and "Siamese" :D

  1. That is too funny! I'd still try to sell it. Call it "'Kitty's Hairball' felted soap ball".

  2. I tried just the orange color and it STILL looks like a hairball. I might just make another and sell it as a "Set of 3 Gag Soap"
