I do cold process and m&p and I have an obsession with layers when it comes to soaps haha. I also tend to use colorants to invoke the mood of the scents I use. Plus, I use oatmilk in all of my lye solutions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nadiadee Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 Actually, that doesn't sound half as bad! So it'll definitely be a technique tut vs a recipe tut. I think I'll do CP with layers Thanks for the ideas guys! I definitely made the right decision in joining this forum 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Things have been crazy with my full time job, a transition underway and everything. I am even running out of space to cure my soaps! I am so sorry that I missed this reply. I think May will be the perfect month for me. Question though, do we post it early of the month or end of the month? I am also hoping that I will find a fragrance oil that won't seize on me by then, otherwise it will be an essential oil soap. So, yes.

Candybee Posted March 26, 2017 Author Share Posted March 26, 2017 (edited) The spots that are still open for this year are: July through December. Thank you for volunteering! You can pick any of those months. Just let me know and I will pencil you in. You may use the tutorial workshop area if you like to flesh out your tut. PM Talltayl to ask for access. You just want to have it ready in the workshop area before the end of month prior to the month you signed up for so it will be ready to transfer on the 1st of your month. Hope that helps. If you have any more questions just ask. I think an EO scented soap would be wonderful! But its your choice how you want to scent or not to scent.

debratant Posted March 29, 2017 Share Posted March 29, 2017 Goodness, thank Goodness! I thought I picked April!!! I am so glad I picked May! LOL. I did a soap over the weekend thinking I had April. Well, seems the soap fairies visited me again and it was a total disaster! Was planning a technique pour, but it turned into a hot mess and a spoon and plop and glob into the mold. I think I was soaping way too cool....my batter thickened up to mash potatoes before I even added fragrance or my colors! Anyway....I panicked today thinking I need to get something done by tomorrow latest so it's ready for April! On a positive note, that glop and plop didn't turn out too bad looking on the inside.

Candybee Posted March 29, 2017 Author Share Posted March 29, 2017 Well I think its pretty! Anyway you have some time to play with so don't panic.... yet! LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TallTayl Posted March 29, 2017 Share Posted March 29, 2017 I think it shows a great save! I would post it to show how sometimes things look horribly wrong only to turn out really pretty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TallTayl Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 Looks like we need volunteers for July on. I am open to changing it to a "Recipe of the month" if it makes sense. I'd I'd like to redesign the classroom area to make it simpler to find recipes and tips. Opening the topics might make the project work like I see it in my head. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candybee Posted May 4, 2017 Author Share Posted May 4, 2017 I would love to see it open to more types of recipes! If it was open to more recipes I think we would have more volunteers. I know I would love to see some B&B recipes! Can't wait to see what you have in mind for updating the classroom area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jcandleattic Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 Can't do July, I'll be out of the country on a business trip. I'd like it opened up to other types of recipes/tutorials other than soap myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candybee Posted May 30, 2017 Author Share Posted May 30, 2017 Anyone interested in signing up for a soap tut? We need volunteers for July thru December for this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It can be anything at all, I think. Soap. Candles. Bath & Body. Melts. Fizies/bubblies...Time to change the title to Tutorial of the Month! I'm looking forward to learning loads of new things. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
