Lucie


Hello Everyone,

Meet Lucie. She is featured on my latest soap box. Her background is homemade paper. I chose it because it reminded me of icing. The box has a silver border and is trimmed with blue grosgrain ribbon. The caption reads, "She told enough white lies to ice a wedding cake." A small cake completes the design. The papier mache box has been painted matte silver and was designed to hold one bar of SavonMarie soap. Of course, it is reusable.


Now about Lucie. She was not a bad woman. Her life was full of intrigue, and she did what she had to do. It was all for love. That is all she (or I) will tell you.


Have a wonderful week everyone.

Marie your soap box is lovely. I really enjoy the stories you add with the design of the box. Great idea.

By the way, my soaps arrived! I had to give one to my sister and one to my Mom. They LOVED THEM! The soap design is absolutely beautiful. Thanks so much!

If you allow that option, people can find you from the comments you leave on other blogs. If it wasn't you, then nevermind! Have a great day!
