These 2 glass vessels have also been decoupaged in the traditional manner.

Good quality soaps have been sealed, painted and decorated with a cut out image before being lacquered.  They may be used, and the image remains until the soap is finished - or just use as a decoration in the bathroom.  Cost (including gift bag) $6.
