Those of you that know me - know I hate wasting anything. I’ve had 3 little bits of soap sitting in a container, it takes me a while to get through a cake of soap, so these are pretty old & I’ve had them above the kitchen sink for a quite some time. I grab one if I need to wash my hands in the kitchen.
Anyhoo - I was doing my dishes & wondering if I could melt these together in the microwave.
Below is the result - they started blowing up like balloons
. It’s hilarious, but now they’re cool they’ve only shrunk a little & they still get soapy. So it worked, they just look ugly. Next time I’ll find a container they’ll fit together in & see if that makes a difference. Btw - the brown piece is sandalwood, I love, love, love sandalwood - it smells divine. #NoWaste #Experiment

@feather1952 I love sandalwood too. Does the microwave smell of sandalwood?
