Here's looking at you Creampuff


by GG.

When I did my first craft fair ever, I met the lovely GG of Creampuff by GG. She loved my pig soap since her signature is a cute little pig and asked me to make some pig soaps for her. We worked together on the scent and I made her a few soaps that she loved. 

However, water soluble paper and I don't work well together and so I suggested we try having a custom made mould instead of GG's mascot. She asked if I would be able to fill in the details and I said of course! So to show her that it's possible, here's the first pig GG saw that drew her to my booth, but set into a frame.

This one is more of the pink that is GG's pig

But this one shows off the details better.

My own private triumphs

I know I keep coming back to the same old, same old, but I'm still working on the soaps for my friend who makes Creampuffs by GG (check out the article in the Vancouver Sun about her). I'm having some trouble with embedding, and a lot of them come out looking like this because I don't get the embed in soon enough.


So I think I've  come up with a solution for this problem, which is to place another clear layer of soap over the embed, so that the white can't get underneath and make it cloudy.


On a completely unrelated note, but still on pigs, I've ordered half a pig from a farm that raises free range pigs. I'm going to be in bacon heaven.
