Well, since @CLMP double-dared me to show them mine, here ya go. Warning, not pretty (really, I'm fine, I still got great smelling homemade soap!). My inspiration was our kitchen. One of the main colors is red and chartreuse is an accent. Scented with fir/sage/litsea/lemongrass essential oils.

I still want to do another attempt but with 29 minutes to deadline, it ain't happenin' in time for this challenge. While I was disappointed in my result I still enjoyed doing this challenge which I have never seen before. It's deceptively harder than it looks so my hat is off to all who entered! And thank you to our challenge organizer @dibbles !View attachment 75412View attachment 75413
It reminds me of when my kitchen was decorated in country apples (speaking of the colors) 🥰

Thank you for showing us! I was just kidding around but glad you showed us it actually looks pretty neat I like them! Yes this challenge was a little tricky but I also had fun and ended up with lots of soap to give away! This was definitely a interesting challenge.🙂

Thanks for showing us @Zing. You still got the lovely wispy swirls in there so at least you got the technique down. And hey - it could have been worse - you could have spilt your red mica all over the kitchen like some other clumsy clogs i know!!!
Ha ha I could help my self and laughed my brains out because I'm one of those clumsy clogs lol @KiwiMoose one day I walked into my kitchen and saw red paw prints all over my kitchen and my nice table cloth and I was like what's going on here and then I noticed I had forgotten my Red Mica on the kitchen countertop and I was like oh no oh my God my cat got into it luckily I was able to clean up everything pretty good but her paws were hard to clean and she keeps tracking it everywhere lol. I learnt a good lesson not to leave out my soap stuff that day lol

I didn't sign up ~ I waited to see if my one try was going to work but I failed, so no entry, no sign up 👍🏻
