Pretty Packaging!

As I give my soaps to people, I am aware how overwhelming it is to remember which soap is for what purpose. Which ones work great for oily skin and which ones work great for dry skin. My mom is constantly calling now and describing the bar and trying to decide which bar is which. Which soap should be left as a kitchen soap and which can be used on delicate facial skin.

Truly they are all fabulous for all body parts but you might want not want to scrub your face with coffee grounds or use colorants and fragrance on a baby. So to solve this dilemma I have been working on packaging and labeling today. Being the girly girl that I am, I am all about pretty and pink.

I got a new tool today, actually two. I got a crimper which is way too much fun and I believe every sheet of paper in my house has been crimped today by either me or my girls. I also got a paper cutter to make nice straight strips to run through my crimper. I learned how to make these adorable little bags at Teach Soap . They are very simple and look like old fashioned candy bags. Since some of my soaps look like candy, they should work out quite well.

So I need some opinions...which wrapping do you like best? The neat little crimped strip or the candy bags?
