Star Wars Rebel & Imperial GEEKSOAP Geek Soap

Posted in Soap , on March 28, 2010 ,

Star Wars soap! I’m a Star Wars girl, and while my personal preference is Imperial, you gotta admit the Rebel Alliance soap turned out awesome, too. Because even Ewoks need to bathe sometime.

GEEKSOAP is handmade from natural, pure vegetable glycerin and moisturizers, enriched with aloe and vitamin E. Soaps are lightly scented with a clean, invigorating smell and come shrink-wrapped to seal in freshness and allow you to keep the soap on display until you’re ready to use it. GEEKSOAP is vegan friendly!

This is just one design of many in my GEEKSOAP line. Check out the Soap category for more. My other GEEKSOAP soaps are available for purchase at http://www.geeksoap.net

My interpretation of these designs are lovingly created and carved by hand and are not intended to mislead or confuse the customer OR infringe on the manufacturer’s/designer’s name and valuable trademark.

GEEKSOAP is geek soap for the internet. Soap for geeks; just pure geeky soap!


Some GEEKSOAP Re-designs

Posted in Soapmaking , on March 27, 2010 ,

Whew! It’s been busy around here at The Pink Toque. Firstly, I’m on Spring Break! In case you didn’t realize, teachers get just as excited about breaks as their students do. I’m really enjoying the time off because it means I can focus on getting ready for the Bloomington Handmade Market coming up a week from today. One full week to prep soap and all of the accessories and extras I need to have at the table setup. Like a sign, which I plan to hand paint this weekend. And more business cards. And more soap wrapper tags…

You’d think that I’d be most busy preparing stock for the show instead of re-designing some of the old soap styles, but nooooo…. I’ve been too busy re-doing some of the previous designs AND adding a bit to them to round out the GEEKSOAP geeky soap line. Most notably adding an Alliance version to the Warcraft GEEKSOAP series. And let me tell you… making the Alliance geek soap was a pain in the you-know-what… just like the Alliance are in-game. Heh heh heh :) (I crack myself up.) So feast your eyes upon the re-designs here… instead of colored soap with a black silhouette I’ve reoworked them to be clear like the majority of the GEEKSOAP line with colored, hand carved and cut images inside. I like it better this way and am really happy with how the re-designs turned out. And ooooooh that Cthulhu re-design was my absolute favorite! Cthulhu, as some of you remember, was the first GEEKSOAP in the series that inspired more… and the old design was great, but with the new “angrier eyebrows”, the NEW design is even better – don’t you think?

As always, all of my geeky soaps are available in my Etsy Shop! http://www.geeksoap.net !

Besides getting ready for the BHM next week, I’m also prepping for the Handmade Promenade on April 17, (Check out Handmade Promenade’s GEEKSOAP feature!!) and GenCon Indy from August 5 – 8. WOW! More about those upcoming shows in a later post. And before I go… quick shout out to some other geeky crafty soapmaking ladies I’ve met this past week… GeekyClean and KyleeLane! xoxo


Rancor Plush

Posted in Plush , on February 20, 2010 ,

Rancors are fierce beasts in the Star Wars universe. You may remember Luke Skywalker attempting to escape his untimely death at the jaws of a rancor by closing a door on its head. SWG players who remember the Creature Handler profession may think back fondly to when they tamed their first baby bull rancor in-game. Either way, rancors are iconic Star Wars creatures and one day I decided to sit down and draft a pattern to create a plush version of my very own from felt. All features hand sewn.

Personal pattern not available.
