A few of my latest

I haven't done many EO batches lately so I thought it was time. #1 is a special request batch for a friend with a blend of lavender/patchouli/cedarwood and purple clay & AC for color. #2 is a spearmint/eucalyptus blend with teal green & sea green mica from Nurture. It smells just like doublemint gum to me! And just for kicks, I made a batch of pink grapefruit scented bubble bars for Valentines Day.

Beautiful Doriette! I especially love the purple clay and AC. Very stiking contrast and I bet it smells wonderful!

Wow, three back-to-back beauties? You're a master! Inspiring indeed.

Holy smokes those are beautiful! I see some gorgeous hearts in the top one and have been pondering an idea in my head for a while as to how to make heart swirls in a loaf of soap. You nailed it!

I love spearmint/eucalyptus, too, and in fact just yesterday added that combination (50/50) to a batch of handmade liquid soap to fill the dispenser.

The first one put together looks like an owl! Awesome swirls! Did you make your own embeds for the bubble bars? Perfect !

Thanks everyone! I think both batches of soap could be used for a Rorschach test because I see all kinda things in them. I did spot the hearts in batch #1 but unfortunately it only happened in a few bars. I definitely did not plan the hearts . . . they just kinda happened but I'm not complaining! I also think #1 looks like an owl or a Mardi Gras mask. I keep seeing exotic birds in batch #2 . . . anything from a peacock to a penguin. The heart toppers on the bubble bars are just Wilton decorations and I also found some shamrocks for St Paddy's Day so I'll probably use those next.
