These are the latest wildflowers growing in these parts- they're called Firewheels, or Indian Blankets.
This photo gives you an idea of where they got their name- doesn't it look like a pretty blanket spread out over the grass? (There's a few Indian Paintbrushes thrown in there, too.)
And so, they served as my soapy inspiration this week...
Since these flowers don't really have a scent to them, I used my very favorite Pomegranate fragrance instead...
Indian Blankets always remind me that summer is on her way!
Oh, and it's Friday!!

Pomegranate scent...delicious! I tried to order lats night and my computer was not cooperating...trying again!
ReplyDeleteAlright- I am totally amazed at some of the newest soaps you have made in the last few weeks... namely the Coffee and Flan. I was completely expecting you to make a new flower soap so the Indian Blanket was a no brainer but the coffee soap is beautiful and the flan sounds delicious... I'm wondering if Jason would use it.... HE LOVES FLAN!
ReplyDeleteAlso, the fish are adorable. You are so talented! Hope your trip home from the weekend was a good one! We had fun seeing you.
