OK... Adding entry #2 anyway: The baby's bottle brush, now I know it's a brush so it's cheating, but hey, it lathered.
The lather actually came quite readily:
Now the only real problem is that the lather went EVERYWHERE!!!!
Now after a thorough application I ended up with a very uneven but full facial lather:
Baby's bottle brushes would definitely work in a pinch!"Charlotte meetup," lets shoot for April 13-14 or 20-21. What say you? PM me to get the ball rolling! And may your face always be BBS!

Friends, today you are in for a special and RARE treat: a glimpse of the inner workings of the Brush Works here at Cangooner Industries. You will also be witness to the production of an extremely limited edition Rosemary Snaffler brush.
Step 1: locate your source material.
1a - slightly out-of-control involuntary donor rosemary plant in need of some trimming. Check!
1b - an appropriate length of highly specialized rosemary brush binding ligature stock (aka string) - Check!
1c - expert supervision (Walter and the Dude) and caffeine - Check!
Step 2: Prepare and assemble your parts
Step 3: Lather away
The result? Well, I was using Mama Bear's Rosemary Mint soap, so this was definitely the rosemary-est shave I have ever had. And I suspect supper will definitely have a whiff of rosemary about it as well.
Thanks to Tarkus for the message inspiration

It was in original condition, faded red, well-worn, but nice.
This was and still is my favorite combination; beautiful, original, and worn.

This looks fun, can I play?
So last weekend I was awarded some nice hemp rope at the BladeSports cutting competition.
So I took a bit from the floor after my run and taped it together:
It seemed to lather up *fairly*, so I gave it a shot:
The "brush" was shedding a bit. It probably would serve as a pretty good test for your razors edge though. I think in a pinch, I would opt for the toilet brush, or a dirty sock instead.

Presenting the wildcrafted, organic, bio-degradable, rustic brush. Go green the right way ..... with PINE!
Abundant, renewable source!
Meticulous craftsman ship!
Produces amazing lather!
An all around joy to work with!
This thing actually did a great job. The CO Bigelow just sprang to life in the mug in about 2/3 the time it would take with my VDH brush. It's a little harsh on the face so don't swirl but painting on the lather was actually comfortable.Last night, I shot an elephant in my pajamas..........

Aye, but tarred, wormed, parcelled and served might give ye different results. A frayed knot? Originally Posted by Pyrateknight

I'm surprised that no one commented on the diaper and BBS... I'm disappointed.
