Farfalloni Soaps

Been thinking of which MP project to make. Then, me and my 568 family were talking about pasta in preparation for Peter and K's birthday. From there I came up with an idea of why not I make a soap that looks like a pasta?

I made farfalloni looking pasta (ribbon).  Only when I made the pasta then I learned that the name of the ribbon pasta are Farfalle (bow or tie shape) and farfalloni (larger bow ties).



For the packaging. I used flower shaped plastic beads in gold tie. I really liked this embellishment. I had that embellishment kept somewhere in my craft supplies. I used to make loom bracelets, keychains and plastic bracelets and give it around to my friend's daughters so these are just leftovers from previous crafty projects.  I never expected that to look nice on soaps too.


Fortune Soaps

Hello Everyone.  Chinese New Year is coming so i've decided to make fortune soaps. These are soaps that looks like fortune cookies. Remember the feeling of joy that you get from fortune cookies when you dine in chinese restaurants? I want to bring that same joy to my family and friends too.

Here, i've used an improvised molds made from wax paper. Then I cut round shapes using an old egg molder. I've also used the edge of a mug as a template in folding the soaps into fortune cookie shapes. I included 2 packaging ideas (1 in plastic with gold tie and the other one uses candy boxes in 3 different colors).


The soaps smells so yummy, as I've scented it with bubblegum fragrance.

This is a fun project. I hope that you can include this in your next MP soap making plan.
