When I was a little girl my Mom would buy a brand of soap called Sweetheart Soap. It was oval in shape and had a raised design around the edges. She would take a picture from an old Christmas card and use white glue to glue it on the top of the soap and then add some more glue on top to seal the picture. Then she took gold paint and painted the raised design. Your soap project took me back to that memory of my Mom and me crafting. Thanks.
