An astute reader notified me that I had left an ingredient
off the list of the strata recipe I posted last week.
See, that is why I cannot be trusted with posting recipes.
Anyway add 3 cups milk.
I corrected the original.
I corrected the original.
Thanks Teri you are wonderful for telling me and for actually trying a recipe of mine.
So much responsibility, scary.
Here's that recipe post.
Now onto the pretty, pretty goat's milk soap.
If you have never used goat soap do not let the price inhibit you as it is worth every dollar.
Joe likes it too.
I think a bar or two would make a fine gift.
Some of these are scented and some are not.
I did not mean to snap this image above but I like it none the less.
I could not help but put an antique filter on that ironstone platter.
How about that cute goat on the soap above?
After fiddling with all these soaps I piled them into a cloche for Marty's next cloche party.
Cloches are terribly difficult to photograph.
If someone has figured out how to do it better please tell me.
Now I am off to my ironing board to iron vintage linens.
I consider that fun by the way.
I am a freak and know it.

What gorgeous soap and beautiful pictures. I am new to your blog and was wondering where you found it? Thanks, Patty
ReplyDeletePatty, I bought it at a consignment store in middle Georgia and do not recall the name of it. Many goat soaps can be found on Etsy.
ReplyDeleteI do use goat milk soap and love it. I always buy a bunch to tide me over till the following spring when its back in production.
ReplyDeleteI love your antique looking filter you places on the pics.
Hope your week is blessed.
What gorgeous soaps!

Hi Olive, love your goat soap!... I would have to get unscented though due to allergies... where do you buy it? Hope you are having fun with your houseguests... xoxo Julie Marie
ReplyDeleteSorry, I just read the other bloggers question and saw your response... I will try Etsy!... xoxo Julie Marie
ReplyDeleteThe soap is so pretty..never heard of goat soap?
ReplyDeleteI picked up some goat soap from the Great Canadian Soap Company on Prince Edward Island. It was rather nice to actually meet the friendly goats! The designs on yours are so intricate.
ReplyDeleteMy mom liked to iron but I hate it. I think because I lack patience.
ReplyDeleteI love goat milk soap..I have used Crabtree and Evelyn's for so many years I have lost count...oh, and I love to iron too..I think we could be good neighbors..happy ironing...
ReplyDeletelove, Mona
What pretty soap! It looks like they molded one from a piece of trim. Gorgeous. I love to use goat milk soap..so lovely on the skin.

ReplyDeleteThe molds are beautiful. I like handmade soaps.
ReplyDeleteThese soaps are so pretty! As always, Olive, your photography is the best!
ReplyDeleteI love how these are carved. The name is sort of a turn off but if they smell good, I'm sure I would love them!!
ReplyDeleteXO,
Jane
I was wondering where you find goat soap. And not a freak - I like to vacuum which sounds much less enjoyable than ironing vintage linens. Ann
ReplyDeleteI love goat soap. Love it love it! I am out of it at the moment.:-(
ReplyDeleteThe photos are gorgeous Olive!

ReplyDeleteThe soaps are really pretty, little works of art:@)
ReplyDeleteYou are an incredible artist! Photography is definitely an art! Love the goat soap. Love the different scents, love the way it makes my skin feel, but even more love the way you show it all! Absolutely fabulous, darling!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty pictures! I have never tried goat soap but you have me curious now.
ReplyDeleteJane
I love good soap. Right now I've been using soap from a new little place I found in Orlando-Mindful Minerals (dead sea salt and mud). I blogged about it a while back. It isn't nearly as pretty as yours but I love how it feels. Your photos are wonderful and that soap is so gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteAs for taking cloche pictures...it is almost impossible. I always catch my reflection, or they look too dark. No answers here.
I have a vintage giveaway on my blog you might like.
Is it wrong if I want to eat the soap? They look so creamy.
ReplyDeleteI have never used goat soap, but I am going to look for some. Looks creamy and rich with emollients. Sounds like a commercial, doesn't it?
ReplyDeleteOlive, I love wonderful soaps, but have never tried goat's milk soap. They are so beautiful. Where do you buy yours?
ReplyDeleteBabs
Oh my gosh I have soap envy! How pathetic am I? Lol! You take the most beautiful pictures Olive. Those soaps are too darn pretty! I'd never be able to use them *winks* Vanna
ReplyDeleteWhat pretty little soaps...you did a great job photographing them ....:))
ReplyDeleteYour soaps look gorgeous. I need to start looking for goat milk soap. BTW your filtering is gorgeous. What software do you use?
ReplyDeletePaula
