    Stick blenders...

    Which stick blender do you prefer? I have a hamilton beach from Walmart, and it's fine, but I don't think its going to hold up.

    A few new soaps I’m fairly proud of

    These smelled so nice and they are really fun. Very masculine scent, Beau Brummel from Brambleberry. It discolored slightly, however, I knew it would. It really adds to the look of the soap.

    A few new soaps I’m fairly proud of

    The mustache one was made last night with Beau Brummell fragrance from brambleberry. It soaped nicely. The other one that soaped amazingly well was huckleberry from nature’s garden. The layers came out exactly as I was hoping for.

    Finally got to do my watermelon soap...

    I’m happy to say the fragrance is still there but light. I’m very happy with the results.

    Finally got to do my watermelon soap...

    The fragrance has held for the most part. It faded a tiny bit. I anchored it with kaolin clay based on what I read. And the colors stayed exactly the same which I’m very happy with.

    Finally got to do my watermelon soap...

    Pink Watermelon by Natures Garden with a mix of Magenta and Raspberry Mica for pink and Kelly Green and Apple Moss Green Mica from Brambleberry. And, of course poppy and cranberry seeds. I am super happy with how it turned out... lets hope the colors hold.

    Flavored oil vs. Fragrance Oil

    Thanks for all of your opinions and information. I will use it for lip balm instead. It will give me an excuse to make some :)

    Flavored oil vs. Fragrance Oil

    I accidentally purchased a flavored oil instead of fragrance oil. Can I still use it in CP soap? Brambleberry site does not recommend, however, I'd still like to try it if possible.

    Cupcake at Tiffany’s Nature’s Fragrance, not happy

    So, I’ve actually tried this fragrance twice. The first time I was very inexperienced with vanillin so, that soap turned an ugly brown. And the fragrance wasn’t coming through. I just tried it again, using the vanilla stabilizer and titanium dioxide, still with significant discoloration. I...

    This one was so fun to make

    Yes, m&p bears. yes, it is in the soap, but I'm ok with what ever happens. On this one I wanted the colors to do what they were going to do. I'll be interested to see what the end result is when it's finally cured. But thanks for the info.

    This one was so fun to make

    I used Natures Garden Sea Salt Caramel and Chocolate Fudge fragrance oils for this one. I did not combine them, but rather used them for the separate colors, which turned out amazingly. The smell is crazy good. I do have to wait to cut it as it is still fairly soft yet after 24 hours. And...
