I have come to a decision. After careful consideration of all the entries (5, to be exact!), my first choice for my favorite new soap idea is....
Vanilla Cupcake Soap! Thanks for this great suggestion, Princess Nikki, I can't wait to make this and send you 3 big bars! Contact me to leave your mailing address, but it will be several weeks (for curing of the soap), but pics will be posted ASAP.
I also have a runner-up...
Angela with her suggestion of Swirly Chocolate -Peppermint Soap!
Please contact me to leave your mailing address, you will receive 2 bars when this is done! Thanks for giving me this great soap idea!
Ok, now since I started this to get new soap ideas in the first place, I wanted to let everyone that contributed ideas know that I loved all of your suggestions. I will be making all of them eventually, over the next few months and would love to send you a bar of 'your soap'... for free!
Thanks everyone. It's been great fun for me!
I will post each and every new soap as they are made. ~ Christine

CONTEST!
I need new ideas!
Do you have an idea for a special soap? A favorite scent, design, special ingredient or quality you are looking for? Here's how the contest will go.... From now until October 15th*, leave your ideas in the reviews (comment) section of this posting only (below this post). Then, during the week of October 16 through October 22*, I will pick my favorite idea... or two, or three! If I pick your idea, I will make that soap, post about it with pictures and your name as the winner, and you will receive 2 big bars of that soap! Remember your comment has to be on this posting only.
Please include your name, email address (I will need to contact you if you win, right?) and the name of your suggested soap idea.
OK, let the contest begin! :)
_______________________________________________________________
* UPDATE!
Ok, I have noticed that not too many lookers (lurkers?) are entering my contest! :(
So! to make things a bit more interesting, I am giving the winner three (3) big bars of soap! But there's a catch... you've got to tell your fellow bloggers to enter in this contest! I will keep it going until the 31st of October, and will pick the winner during the first week of November.
Ok, now, here we go again... :)
** UPDATE #2!
another contest, unrelated to this one, except for it's at the shop of a fellow believer and fellow etsy artesian! check out the beautiful prints at her etsy shop, then go to her blog and comment there.
And remember, this is the last week for my soap contest... hint, hint ;)
