Perfumed Washballs

 

You will need:

1C. (4oz) unscented toilet soap (or assorted soap ends)

2/3C rosewater

5d lavender oil

5d petitgrain oil

food coloring (optional)

Tissue paper

Satin ribbin, 1/4 " wide

 

Grate the soap into a mixing bowl using a fine grater (such as a

cheese grater), then add the rosewater.

 

Heat the mixture over a gentle heat in a bainmarie, until it

coalesces into a thick paste. Take it off the heat, and with a

pestle and motar(blender) mix in the essential oils and food

coloring.

 

Allow the mixture to begin to set and dry out a bit, then take a

small handful of paste and mold it into a neat ball. Repeat until

the mixture is used up. Before the wash balls become completely

hard, polish them to a smooth finish by wetting your hands with a

little rosewater, and rubbing the balls between them.

 

Wrap each completed wash ball in two 8 " squares of tissue paper, and

tie with a ribbon.
