Ever wanted to make your own soap or buy regular bars of soap but just can't stand the soap muck on your bathroom or kitchen sinks? Well hold on to your hats ladies and gents! Instead of using those wooden or porcelain soap dishes, or even your plain sink indentations which get all filled with dried soap particles, how bout using a good ol sponge?!
That's right. You can buy them for around 2bucks. I use the ones with the scrubs on the bottom so that I can use them to clean around the sink as well to keep me from cleaning around the sink ALL THE TIME.
Just put the scrub side down and let the soap lie on the sponge top. The wet soap will dry nicely and you won't have tons of wet soap that causes particles that are hard to scrub off when your done. NO messes!

I really needed this. Thanks for sharing. I have been using dry folded washcloths for awhile after trying all the others that you'd mention. I know that the sponge will do better. wife12178

Slices of a loofah also work very well. I just buy a loofah at Wal-mart and slice it with a serrated bread knife. This is an especially nice thing to do with handmade soaps as they have more glycerin and are prone to melt faster.
