soaps as christmas gifts

[homemom1fl]

;D Just had to share that I ordered about 35 bars (some for me) of soap today! My Christmas shopping is almost complete! I am trying to come up with a way to make soap sacks for them out of scrubbies. Any ideas? Frontier catalog showed a soap sac by one of the companies but when I tried to order it it showed that the product number was unknown
I figure I can come up with something. That way the kids and everyone else I'm giving them to can have their own personal scrubbie soap and can hang them in the shower. I still like Tina's idea about a multiple bar caddie. When's that comin' Katie?

Thanks for ordering, Chris....I hope everyone is delighted!

Scrubbies....hmmm....perhaps if you are a bit crafty and were able to get your hands on some tulle you could cut it/bunch it creatively around a soap. I haven't experimented with that myself. Or, if you can crochet, I do have a pattern around here somewhere for little crocheted soap sacks.

I still need a multiple bar soap rack myself! Right now we have 5 bars in the downstairs shower, stacked on top of each other.

Katie,
I actually started making the sacks today. At walmart, in the kitchen towel dept, they have a dishcloth that is terry on one side and a scrubbie overlay on the other. I made little sacks out of the green/wht striped ones, just a tad bigger than a large bar of Ivory (shhh!) soap and sewed a red metallic loop on the top. I'm gonna sew a little velcro "button" on the inside of the top to close it off. I think it will work out great! I am so looking forward to inhaling each and every bar!
