I was rushing when making my last batch. I used too much water when hydrating the clay and forgot to add the scent I wanted to use. This got me wondering what real disasters soapmakers have had.

Tripped over the cat and sent six pounds of just poured soap batter flying everywhere.
I was making a batch of peppermint soap. I had colored 1/2 of the batch red to do a red and white swirl like a peppermint candy. I must not have wiped down my utensils, etc, well enough before putting them in the dishwasher, b/c I come out and pink, minty foam is SHOOTING out of the bottom of the washer! I figured I might as well let it finish, so I put a roasting pan under the dishwasher to catch most of the foam and then just mopped and mopped until the dishwasher had finished running. My kitchen smelled REALLY good!
