DESCRIPTION: Bring a touch of unique, cozy charm to your sink or shower with this adorable, felted soap trio. Felted soap is used like a regular bar of soap, but with the added benefit of the felt acting as a built-in washcloth or exfoliant. Made with juniper-scented soap and wrapped in soft felted wool, each pumpkin - orange, green and white - is stitched with care and topped with a whimsical stem. Beautifully boxed and ready to gift, this set is a festive blend of function and fall flair.
