Sounds weird right? But it is actually possible to adorned a nice fragrant soap with some dried flowers and make it look special. Come on let’s make one.
Here’s what you’ll need,
•    Soap
•    Some dried flowers and leaves
•    Brush
•    Decoupage Solution
This is how you decorate your soap:
1.    Dry your flowers and foliage by air drying or the microwave method.
2.    Now coat the soap on the side you intend to decorate on with a few coats of sealer with a paint brush. Allow the sealer coats to dry in between. This is necessary as this prevents the soap from discoloring the blossoms you use.
3.    As the soap dries apply another coat of sealer and place the blossoms on the soap.
4.    Again make sure that there are no air bubbles trapped amidst the petals or below them.
5.    Again while it is still wet apply another coat of sealer.
6.    Now as the entire thing dries up apply another 3 coats of sealer allowing drying them in between. The final coating ensures that the flowers stay on the soap even when in use.
So, you’re designer soaps ready!!
