Steph in tx Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 These are what I've been up to lately. I've been bitten...now I need more supplies!! First is Blackberry Sage in mold. The colors don't show thru herehttp://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e166/Beginner101/BlackberrySageSoap.jpgCut, the colors are creamy background, green, and dark purplehttp://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e166/Beginner101/BlackberrySageCut.jpgNext is some Castile Soap for my nephew in Vermont. Made with Olive, Lard, Mango Butter. It's 3lbs worth (I don't have all three lbs showing), and I had less than 1oz of Cotton Candy...but it smells amost like Play Dough to me. This was done a couple of weeks ago after Blackberry Sage...and still holding color! :whoohoo: This picture was taken today.http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e166/Beginner101/JakesSoap.jpgThen comes Chocolate Latte from GreenLeaf. Smells like all chocolate at first...but the Latte comes later. Smelt so good my 6yr. old could smell it from in the back when I was pouring in mold and wanted to know if he could eat it! http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e166/Beginner101/ChocolateLatteSoap.jpglooks good when cut and put back together too! http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e166/Beginner101/ChocolateLattecutputtogether.jpgWhen I cut, this is what I found! http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e166/Beginner101/ChocolateLatteCut.jpgThere is no Olive oil in the last one. I use Peacock Colors of Purple & Orange...then used a tiny bit of TEAL!! I made sure I incorporated all color in really well!! Even pouring in the mold....All I saw was the Chocolate all thru it!I guess I was visited my the soap gremlins last night!! Oh well, it still smells devine!! Thanks for looking!!Steph in tx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
