What's the best way to package/wrap homemade soap? I've made some really nice soap, but not sure how to package it. Thanks!

"Have you seen the wrap that you shrink around items with a blowdryer? It comes in colors, in rolls like wrapping paper, at the craft store. Cut a large circle, gather it with your hand over the top of the bar, tie off with a twist tie or other wire, and follow the instructions for heating with the blowdryer. It works like a charm, and is fun to do besides! Finish off with any decorative ribbon or such as you like."

I have used the shrink wrap before, but don't you think that it would make the soap soft or maybe start to melt?

Thanks

Check thrift stores for beautiful containers. I just found a three-level peach-toned six-sided box with little cherubs and flowers on it for $1.00. I LOVE the shrink wrap idea!

I have placed mine on a 6x6 inch tile. I cover with Plastic wrap and tie with a pretty wrap.

I have seen them wrapped alone in colorful paper and tied.

I have seen homemade soap wrapped in fabric strips, nice country style fabrics, cut with pinking shears and wrapped like a ribbon on a gift. It allows people to smell the soap, and is already wrapped as a gift.

Good Luck

Wrap in some pretty paper and tie with strips of rafia.
