Extra Soap Snaps

Hey there!
Just a few snaps of the unmoulded/cut soaps from the class.
Above was a shimmy design (Anjou pear and Lemon Zest) that I made so the participants could have a go at cutting slices of soap off the loaf.

This lemongrass scented soap had a lovely two tone design! Simple with some poppyseeds mixed into the top layer (and some soap butterfly embeds)

This lovely natural soap was scented with Key Lime Tart fragrance with a subtle swirl of Green French Clay.
A bit of fun with butterfly embeds and poppy seeds

Another lady had a lot of fun swirling a very pretty mermaid blue mica into a variety of my patterned moulds

The fragrance she used was ‘Blueberry’

Another student decided on giving the loaf mould a go and chose ‘Dragons Blood’ as the fragrance.
It turned out lovely with a solid base colour with the top mixed with sprinkles!

And lastly, using the lime and coconut fragrance, this deep blue and white design turned out great with really interesting folds of the colours!

And lastly, I finally got around to cutting the soap I made as a demo during the class and loved the patterns on the inside!

I used Peppermint for the fragrance

I think the wobbles is what you get when you make a very fluid batch of soap then chuck it in the car to drive home!

But excellent effects

I’ve had a LOT of interest to do more classes, so looking at doing another one possibly in August 🙂

Lets finish on a culinary note…
I went to a local workshop on making sourdough bread!
It was excellent fun and apart from mixing and kneading up our own loaves, the lady baked some she had prepared so we all got a taste at the end.
Soooo good.
(I still have to get info on the starter but I really want to do this as a regular thing.)
Mine baked up beautifully the next morning and we (mostly me) thoroughly enjoyed eating our way through it!

Hope everyone is having a lovely weekend!
Cheers!

  1. Great looking soaps, Lisa. I do love sour dough bread too. First had it years ago in San Francisco. Yours turned out lovely looking!
