Thanks! It's been awhile and I'm not happy with my first effort. making another batch tomorrow.

I made my first soap in about a year! Recently retired and moved to a farm in Kentucky. I'll unmold it tomorrow or Monday and see how I did.

Here's my second try. I haven't done layers in awhile. Definitely out of practice. This is a primarily lard soap scented with Love Spell ( I forget where it came From.). I colored with Nurture's Really Red.

1. BattleGnome - super excited for a new challenge 2. Mx6inpenn - I'm game 3. dibbles - I can't believe I've never done this 4. MissChief - Twist my rubber arm..I'll MAKE room, dammit! 5. Sonya-m - haven't soaped or been on here for ages so it's about time!! 6. Crispysoap - bring it on 7...

I haven't been active for awhile. I just logged on and looked at the entries. Wow! Ya'll made some beautiful soaps. Thanks fir the motivation to get soaping again!

Great job, everyone!

I see the chicken, too!

I thought I'd have more tries, but with a hurricane and evacuating, this is it! I did a pour with dividers, then removed and swirled. What I thought was interesting was how different the two sides of the same bars were. My entry choice kind of looks like a parrot's eye and maybe beak??

1.Mx6inpenn - I'm in! 2. dibbles - Me too! 3. MissChief - Come hell or high water, I'm making soap this month! 4. Judiraz- Starting today!

1. AMD - I miss doing challenges 2. penelopejane - I'll give it a whirl. 3. Rusti - I should have time this month 4. dibbles - I've been wanting to try this 5. TeresaT - I'll make time for it this month (if it's not hot & humid again ). 6. IrishLass - I'll give it a swirl. 7. Guspuppy -...

I like the 1.25" thickness as well and I make several different size bars. My personal favorite are tall & skinny molds. These are usually 2-2.5" wide and 3" tall. The mold I use most often is the 2X3" mold. I just like the feel of that size bar in my hand.

Great job you guys!

Yep, me, too!!

can't wait to see the cut bars. I love earth colors as well, particularly the coppers!

Voted. I actually had 5 I loved...hard to narrow it down!
