Teach Soap

I just drizzle it in in layers and swirl it with a piece of dowel. I love how it turns out!

Gorgeous, Hesty! I'm looking forward to using the Fresh Snow FO in some Christmas soaps in a few months.

Beautiful Hestey! Just enough swirlies on each bar, great job!

I've been thinking about Fresh Snow for a little while too, the description on BB just sounds kind of off to me though.

I am so excited to share some soap with you guys! These are my 4th (split into two scents) and 5th (unscented) batches. I still have not tried any colorants or additives yet, but I am getting more comfortable with basic soap and FO's. My first batches were back in September and they lasted so well--we're about to use up the last 4 bars, so I had to get busy making more. The next round of batches I do, I am going to try a swirl and also maybe a salt bar. Someday I'll make pretty soaps like the ones I drool over in this thread, but for now I am happy with basic, nice-smelling, functional soap.

I used my new soap stamp from BB for this first time with these. Top is rebatched/"Hot Process Hero" from soap queen Mango Peach Salsa; middle is Earl Gray Lemon. The bottom row is unscented with some unrefined cocoa butter as part of the oils. I was kind of bummed I can't still smell the cocoa.

Nice rack! (tehe)

Simple soaps are sometimes the most beautiful, you did a great job!
How did you like the Mango Peach Salsa FO?

Heather wow! I'm gone for a while and come back to beautiful! Is this a 4 color swirl?

Did the fresh snow accelerate trace? These swirls are so gorgeous and I hope to see the cut photos too!

My mold dividers warped also that is such a bummer. How do you straighten them out?

ilovelather that is nice stamping for your first few batches!

Today I find it kind of smells like artificial grape I still like it, but it smells a lot different than when I poured. Will have to see how it is in 6 weeks!
