    Pine cone flower wreath

    I finished this tonight and pretty happy with it. The pine cones were much harder to break in half than I thought they would be but worth the effort. This was really inexpensive to make.

    Coffee soaps

    I made some coffee soaps and hoping they are not too scratchy. The coffee grounds were used so I hope that helps. I like the way they look and doubt if I can wait very long to try one.😊 I could barely wait to de-mold so some got squashed a little .

    Hi everyone.

    I have been around on and off for years now but have barely made any soap for the last couple of years. I have recently retired so plan to make more soap and study all the wonderful projects everyone else has going on here. Glad to be back and see some familiar "faces".

    Brambleberry FO labels

    Hello soapers! I took quite a break from soap making except for an occasional batch here and there. Today I was looking through my FOs and was so disappointed to see that many of the Brambleberry labels are faded so much that I can no longer tell what the fragrance is! I guess I will have some...

    Pink soaps

    Confetti is with a Bubble Bath FO. The crazy one is a Secret Garden FO but turned out not so secret lol. It was supposed to be mostly pink and a few swirls of color . Oops.

    Watching soap videos

    I am so thankful to all the soap makers that make videos . I doubt that I would have ever attempted to make soap without them . I don't know how they can make soap and the videos at the same time. These people are talented. I usually do fast forward to the pour.

    Favorite Soap Colors

    Do you have favorite colors that you prefer to use in your soaps? I love pinks. Do you like loud colors or subtle colors , solids or no color? I guess I like them all but I really like playing with color so if I have a FO that will let me play I usually do.

    What are you picky about?

    I guess I’m not much at all lol😊 Many concerns about the appearance of soda ash, air bubbles, glycerin rivers etc. None of them bother me much . I do hate the drag marks I get from titanium dioxide though. What about you guys?

    A pleasant surprise

    Yesterday I soaped with NG's Amazing Grace dupe. I had a simple white with pink spoon swirls planned and when I mixed in the fragrance my batter went yellow. Really yellow. I did not remember reading this would discolor soap but oh well, stuff happens and I thought maybe it was my oils. This...

    Two soaps, new stamps

    I finally bought a couple of soap stamps. I probably should have waited 1 more day to stamp but I was anxious. A pumpkin and a lavender.

    Shelf life for FO's?

    Is there a general rule on how long a FO is ok to use or a way to tell if it is no longer any good?

    Soap and metal

    It is ok to store cured soap on metal shelves if you use a barrier between soap and metal? I have heard about oxidation when soap touches metal but would it be ok with cardboard or craft paper on top of the shelves?

    Yuzu/Orange and Black/Chai Tea

    These are the soaps I made yesterday. The black tea is my 1st attempt at a peacock swirl which isn't exactly a peacock swirl but overall ok.The tops got a little mottled from FO coming through. It is the first time using anything other than a log mold also and was not sure how to cut these so...
