8th International Soap Swap
Maree Arber's Coffee and Walnut Delish Soap Recipe
Coffee and Walnut Delish Soap by Maree Arber
The local Garden Club asked me to make a gardener's soap for them. My walnut tree had just finished walnutting ( for the first time) and as I did'nt want to waste anything, I ground the husks in a coffee grinder. I had a coffee soap in mind for cleaning and odour eating properties for the gardener's soap and at around the same time there was talk of a swap coming up so I decided to combine the two.
Enjoy,
Maree Arber
