Make Your Own Ravenclaw Layered Soap

We are HUGE Harry Potter fans.  I was so happy when Peyton watched the first Harry Potter movie and fell in love with the story as I did. It was even better when she saw Fantastic Beasts and love it too. Then we had our first trip to Universal Orlando and experienced the Wizarding World of Harry Potter first hand. That was one of the best weekends we’ve had. Butterbeer, chocolate frogs and all things Harry Potter were consumed.  But now we are home in Minnesota, where there are no Harry Potter things to enjoy.  However, we are heading back to Florida next year to spend 2 weeks at Universal and Disney World. So in order to prepare, we will be sharing lots and lots of Universal and Disney inspired treats and projects.  First one up – How to Make Your Own Ravenclaw Layered Soap.

Ravenclaw Layered SoapHow fun is this? Even if your house is not Ravenclaw these are still fun to make. Plus if you are having a Harry Potter themed birthday party, these soaps would be pretty cool to have in the bathroom.

First, you will need the following to make Ravenclaw Layered Soap –Ravenclaw layered Soap Supplies

  • 1/2 pound melt and pour *suspension soap base cut into cubes (each cube is approx. 1 ounce) 
  • 1/2 pound melt and pour clear soap base cut into cubes (each cube is approx. 1 ounce) 
  • Royal blue soap coloring
  • Silver soap coloring
  • Royal blue cosmetic glitter 
  • Silver cosmetic glitter 
  • 10-20 drops of Peppermint essential oil 
  • 10-20 drops of Cedarwood essential oil
  • Spray bottle of rubbing alcohol
  • Loaf Soap Mold   
  • 2 microwave safe bowls or measuring cups

*Suspension soap is a bit thicker when melted compared to regular melt and pour soaps. This allows glitter, jojoba beads, etc. to be suspended within the soap mixture as opposed to falling to the bottom as it will with regular melt and pour soaps. You do not have to use this soap if you don’t have it. Just double up on the regular melt and pour soap base.

I suggest laying out all your supplies and making sure everything is handy and ready to go. Making soap moves fairly quickly at times and you don’t want to be searching for a supply at a critical moment.

Now on to the instructions –

To make the Royal Blue layer:

Step 1: Add 15 cubes of the clear soap base and 15 cubes of the suspension soap base to a microwave safe bowl or measuring cup and melt soap cubes in 30 second intervals, stirring after each until completely melted. You want to end up with 24 ounces to make 4-6-ounce layers.

Steps 2-3: Add essential oils to the melted soap base.

Steps 4-6: Add 1 teaspoon of the royal blue soap coloring and 1 teaspoon of the royal blue glitter. If the color is not what you want, add 1/2-1 teaspoon and stir until desired color is achieved.

Steps 7-9: Spray bottom of mold with rubbing alcohol to prevent bubbles from forming on the bottom. Pour 6 ounces of the blue soap mixture into mold. Spray mixture with rubbing alcohol to prevent bubbles from forming on the top. Allow to harden completely before pouring the next layer. You can tell if the layer is not hardened if you blow on it and you see ripples.

To make the Silver layer:

Step 1: Add 12 cubes of the clear soap base and 12 cubes of the suspension soap base to a microwave safe bowl or measuring cup and melt soap cubes in 30 second intervals, stirring after each until completely melted. You want to end up with 18 ounces to make 3-6-ounce layers.

Steps 2-3: Add essential oils to the melted soap base.

Steps 4-6: Add 1 teaspoon of the silver soap coloring and 1 teaspoon of the silver glitter. If the color is not what you want, add 1/2-1 teaspoon and stir until desired color is achieved.

Steps 7-9: Spray top of royal blue layer with rubbing alcohol. This helps each layer adhere to one another. Pour 6 ounces of the blue/silver soap mixture into mold. Spray mixture with rubbing alcohol to prevent bubbles from forming on the top. Allow to harden completely before pouring the next layer. You can tell if the layer is not hardened if you blow on it and you see ripples.

Repeat steps 1-9 for each alternating layer until mold is filled. Allow to harden to least 24 hours. Gently remove loaf from mold and remove soap. Cut soap into bars. Store in an airtight container until ready for use.

And you’re done! Now you have adorable Harry Potter Ravenclaw layered soap bars!
