Things I Love: 8-Bit Bars of Soap

The brains behind Geeksoap is Lesley Karpiuk, a self-confessed gamer, geeky soapmaker, knitter and an all-around crafty teacher from Indiana. The 8-bit cartridge is one of several different modern day and retro-culture designs that Lesley's come up with; she makes each bar out of all-natural ingredients in her own kitchen.

And look, there's even a Blogging platform set!


Sold!
