Melt the soap base and at the same time melt the shea butter in a custard
cup placed in a pan of boiling water or in the microwave. Add calendula
petals to the melted base, a few drops of yellow food coloring, the EO and
then the melted shea butter. Try to have this the same temp as the melt
and pour. Keep stirring the soap/shea butter mixture. As it starts to set up
spoon into heart molds. ( By spooning you have more control how many of the
calendula leaves go into each mold.) I like to let my molds set at room
temp until them are skimmed over fairly firm then I chill them in the freezer
for about a half hour before removing them from the mold and place them on a
rack to finish drying completely.  This is a very pretty soap. Makes 8 heart soaps. Enjoy!!!!
