I'm sorry for OT, but I love your nick Dixiedragon! :D

Lovely colors on that first one <3 Second one reminds me of camouflage patterns, it's actually pretty cool! :D

Funny, I tought that we don't have anything very special oil here in Finland :D but apparently we do have better selection for pistachio oil! I've seen few different brands even :o I haven't used it on a soap yet. So can't really tell how it's like, but when I have tried it, I promise to post...

Guys, you are letting everyone know that English is not my first language! :'D just kidding, no worries, it's good to learn new things ;) Yep, coarse is the word! And that is a good point you are making Dibbles. The salt I have now maybe too rough. Luckily it is good for cooking too if I...

I also did some grocery shopping today! I bought oils for weekends soap making 8-) Some sunflower oil, peanut oil and pistachio oil. Pistachio was on sale, woot woot!

Yes, I mean clay :grin::oops: I knew there is a better and more correct word for it, thanks!! :mrgreen: And thank you for advices, so helpful <3 I keep in mind that hardening part! I think individual molds are indeed the best solution here :)

How cute! :D

Good looking soap! :) save a small piece of that first batch you made, it will be a fun memory!

I can also talk about HP for hours! :D So good books <3 I didn't like the movies so much, but I've seen them. But its actually Sirius quote, from Order of the phoenix :)

welcome! <3 very pretty soaps!

I put my re-batched milk & honey soap to the freezer so I can get it out of the mold and cut it :cool: It overheated at first so it had a big hole in the middle of it. That's why I re-batched.

Beer soap sounds like a good Christmas gift for my dad! I'm a Finn, so we have this thing called sauna and with it usually comes a beer, "saunakalja." So it would be fun to do a batch with his favourite beer :D

Thanks a lot earlene <3_<3 I look into those! melt & pour is actually very good idea for this kind of soap! This forum is amazing!! :D
