While in Naples, my mom and I hit several thrift, consignment and antique shops. One of my finds was a beat-up old white scale. I used it to stage the photos for my newest batches of soap, as well as some of my white pitchers, dishes and vintage linens. And of course, as my soaps are al 'a natural, they are all shades of white too.....these pics are all 'vintage-fied' with Picasa, and I love the different textures and shades of the whites in a warmed black and white setting.....
My mom, a breast cancer survivor, for whom I began making soap.

I would have to agree with the others ~ you and your mom could pass as sisters! She looks so young!

I agree, each time I see pictures of your mom, my thought is you could be sisters.
Your soap looks delicious. Reminds me of fudge, yum yum!
I like the effect you created with your pictures. I decided that this is my month to begin making soap. I need those natural products.
