Chunky-funky Soap

Today I made, for the first time, chunk soap. I've wanted to make it for a while, but got the inspiration from an AOL tin that came in the mail. I was trying to think of something to do with the darn thing, and "soap mold" came to mind.

I poured the soap in the tin, then let it get hard. After it was hard (I put it in the fridge), I un-molded it (which wasn't as easy as I thought it would be), and cut it into chunks.

I put the chunks in the freezer, while preparing the pour-over soap. When it was ready, I poured a thin layer of the pour-over, let it set, then added some chunks, poured-over and voila.

I made a few of them, actually. It started out being a Father's Day gift for my dad. I made it kind of a spicy "manly" scent. But, I'm thinking I might offer some at my store as well, as OOAK. (One Of A Kinds)
