Teach Soap

Nice soaps, soapchick! I've been meaning to build myself a light box, but haven't attempted it yet.

Very nice soaps, too, jkmcreative! I like the natural look, too. Yours even look like cold-process soaps. The engraving is a nice touch, and your packaging is fab!

I keep meaning to build a light box ... and end up propping up sheets of A4 paper together under my kitchen lights to try and get the same effect lol - (note to self ... must do it properly!!)
The slideshow was really effective in showing off your soaps julz - they really do look like CP soap! I agree with mella though - maybe some music would be good? Maybe some "spa" type music?

I agree with changing the font - Because you're going with the hand-crafted look perhaps a font that looks like hand writing? The Gothic can be hard to read and M & W are especially hard!

I used one of my molds - here it is!

Your mold came out really nice Molly, very pretty. It must hold a bit of soap, like a load! LOL

Do you like the passionfruit fragrance? It sure matches up with the beautiful blossom, very tropical!

PurpleMolly - Great job! I love the way you colored it!

Thank you mella - it holds about 1kilo of soap so just a little less than the loaf pan! Passionfruit Papaya isn't one of my favourites but I thought would suit the flower! It's a nice tropical scent but not too sweet. I was really pleased with how the colours came out. I filled the first two layers slowly and carefully to get the flower design ... did plan to do that with all the rows of petals but ran out of patience!!!! I was originally going to do each round a different colour ... I'm not good on precise fiddly stuff - I like the random effects you get from layering lots of colours in a loaf!

Thank you also jkmcreative and Bramble Momma - no didn't make the mould (wish I was that clever!!). It was one I bought from a Salvation Army store (I think you call them thrift stores?). We call them Opp Shops (Opportunity Shops). This one always has silicon moulds and I bought 2. I posted on another thread with them when I got them cause one of them had a tear

Was that mould one of the Salvos new items or secondhand ?,l have found them on the net but they are about $13 with freight a lot more than your $5 .
