OH MY GOSH, Momsoap, that pink/white with the pencil line is amazing -- I can't see why you think it is less that fabulous? Better look again because it is awesome!

Wow, beautiful soaps everyone. Pat yourselves on the back for the great work. As soon as I'm better, I'm going to make more soap!

SudsyFun,
Sorry you're under the weather -- hope it is nothing serious. Get better soon!

Jill

Thanks, Jill. It's another sinus infection but I'm feeling better already.

Here's my first attempt of doing a tiger stripes. Not bad for a newbie.

Love the tiger stripe, isoap!

I did a tiger stripe for . It was fun to do. The coloring is activated charcoal for the black and tangerine wow + brown oxide for the brown. I went too heavy on the brown oxide so it didn't turn out an orangey brown like I wanted. Used Sage and Lemongrass fragrance oil, which started moving fast on me (it's not supposed to...) - so the pours were really gloppy thick but I think it turned out okay for something that was accelerating.

You can see a tutorial on making a Tiger Stripe here on YouTube:

Some really beautiful soaps here you all! Those black and white soaps are stunners aren't they! I've never tried that but it is beautiful.

I love soapwitch's bastile with the touches of pink and purple too.

So your challenge Tiger Stripes look so nice Robert and isoap! Mine flopped due to my technique of pouring. I'll change that up next time.

Ok dinner is in the oven! So I managed to get the photo bucket to work so here is my 3 clay Salt Water Taffy stripes!





Happy Easter everyone!

Sudsyfun,
I swear it is contagious thru the internet. Ended up at the doc's office -- had to get a shot in the butt and a Rx for a sinus infection today. Well, hope we both are better quickly.

Jill

Good job Mella!

Those are awesome looking stripes and swirls, everyone!!
Jill, thank you so much for the words of encouragement on my pencil line! I was worried that it was too thick, it was kind of smeary when I unmolded it so I think I may have used too much black oxide! Maybe it won't smear so much once it cures! It was my first pencil line, so thanks again to you and Irena for the kind words!
Happy Easter! Blessings of the Risen Lord to you all!
