Ah, how I love the soap trees in autumn...

Staying at the Ritz-Carlton, I found myself looking through the Ritz-Carlton magazine (who knew?), where I saw these. They're single use soap leaves -- ultra thin slivers of fine soap, for just enough lather to banish the ick from your hands. Aren't they lovely? $20 for a box of 20.

Only Mother Nature could form soaps as beautiful as these Soap Leaves. ... Comes in packs of 20 honey-scented soap leaves in an acetate box perfect for gift-giving. Each leaf is good for one or two washings. Choose from Ivory and Green. Please note that as these items are handmade, please expect color and size differences between the leaves in each box.
