Recycle Your Soap Scraps
Have you ever thought about recycling your soap scraps to save your family money? You can use your left over soap scraps to make whole bars of soap again. It’s a fun and easy activity you can do with your children. There are no harmful chemicals involved when recycling your soap scraps.
Equipment:
Most of these you have already in your kitchen. Just be sure to clean them properly after usage because you don’t want a soapy milkshake the next time you use it!
- Baking pan
- Blender
- Cookie mold or cookie press
- Knife
- Mixing bowl
- Measuring cups and spoons
Ingredients:
1/2 cup soap scraps
1 to 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil
1 to 2 tablespoons of boiling water
1 teaspoon of your favorite spice for scent (cinnamon, vanilla, ginger, lemon etc.)
1 drop colorant (your desired color)
Instructions:
- Cut soap scraps into small pieces. Blend together until scraps turn into crumbs.
- In a mixing bowl, stir together soap crumbs, 1 tablespoon vegetable oil, 1 table spoon of boiling water. If the soap crumbs look very dry, you add 1 more tablespoon of vegetable oil and water.
- Add your desired scent and preferred colorant. Stir the mixture well.
- Pour the mixture into a baking pan and let it cool under a shade.
- Once it has cooled, but still soft, use your cookie cutter or molds to cut out different shapes.
- Set aside for a minimum of 24 hours to let the soap completely harden. You'll get the best results when you let the soap stand for 2 to 3 weeks.
Add Fun:
Add finely ground oatmeal or green tea to add texture and fun to your soap. You may add these ingredients together with your preferred scent in step 3.
