Essential oils of coniferous trees and citrus, cinnamon with its fragrance remind us of the upcoming holiday. So, how to make New Year's soap yourself?

New Year's soap "Christmas tree"

To make such a New Year's soap with the herringbone silhouette, we will need such ingredients and tools:

• 
  60 g of transparent soap base
• 
  50 g of white soap base
• 
  green dye
• 
  pine essential oil, fir and the like.
• 
  cosmetic sequins
• 
  medical alcohol
• 
  mold for soap (square or rectangular) for a piece weighing 100 g
• 
  flat dish
• 
  biscuit mold in the form of a Christmas tree
• 
  wooden stick

25 g of a white base is melted in a water bath,add a green dye and add a couple drops of pine essential oil. The resultant green substrate is poured on a flat plate with a thin even layer, sprinkled with alcohol and allowed to freeze. Then, using a cookie cutter, we cut out two green Christmas trees.

30 g of a transparent base is melted in a waterbath, add essential oil and a little green dye for a light shade, then - a little spangles. Stir, pour part of the base into a soap mold. Quickly put on the base in the form of a herringbone from soap, fill the remaining base, sprinkle with alcohol and let it freeze. Then once again, sprinkle with alcohol, melting the remains of the white base and pour into the mold.

On the white base lay out the second Christmas tree. We melt the transparent base in the same way as last time, adding essential oil, dye and sequins. Fill a transparent base over the Christmas tree, sprinkle with alcohol, let it freeze and remove the soap from the mold.

New Year soap with a picture

Can do original New Year's soap with a pattern on water-soluble paper (it can be bought in shops selling goodsfor home soap). There is a paper with a pattern already applied, and sometimes it is white. On this paper, the pattern is printed using a printer. Manufacturers advise to use an ink-jet printer, but experienced soap-makers say that it works well on a laser.

As we cook New Year's soap, the drawing should also be New Year's: Christmas tree, snowman, Santa Claus, Christmas tree, deer, the symbol of 2012 - Dragon, in general, everything that will please. In addition to drawing on water-soluble paper, one should take:

• 
  80 g of transparent soap base
• 
  20 g of white soap base
• 
  2 drops of grape seed oil
• 
  2 drops of jojoba oil
• 
  2 drops of vitamin A in oil
• 
  2 drops of vitamin E in oil
• 
  medical alcohol
• 
  perfume (which one is more like)
• 
  mold for soap
• 
  wooden stick

We cut the white base into small pieces andmelted in a water bath. We add to the base cosmetic oils, vitamins, perfume, mix everything and pour into the form. Sprinkle with alcohol and let the soap to cool.

Carefully cut out water-soluble paperdrawing and spread on soap. Cut the transparent base onto small cubes, melt it in a water bath, add a little bit of perfume (just a little) and fill it into the mold above the picture. Again, sprinkle alcohol, waiting for the freeze. The frozen soap is taken out of the mold.

Of course, New Year's soap should also be properly presented. It is better to give more than one piece, but several at once, packing in their beautiful package. A good gift is New Year's bath set. Place in a box with a transparent covera few pieces of soap, a small terry towel, rolled up with a roller and bandaged with a ribbon.
