Steph in tx Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 I attempted to make GL's Raspberry Mint Jelly once before, but forgot to add fo ! That was a couple of months ago. So this time I paid attention to everything...Anyway, this was colored with Peacock Dye Red. I added alot of drops, and it's more of a mud red than really red, but it's got spec's of green for the mint in it. This smells so good!!Next is a blend of ICS's Chocolate Kisses & Sugar Milk, I did a blind swirl on this one. I probably should have use some cocoa powder to make it a little darker. But of course no swirls on the inside!! It smells so rich!! These are not as prudy as the swirl queens we have on here...but it was fun playing!! Thanks for looking!

Steph in tx Posted November 13, 2006 Author Share Posted November 13, 2006 I really love doing CP Soaps!! I'm just working on getting some made for now...I kinda like the fresh out of the mold look for now, it's just that. One day I would love to master making them look more professional...but I'll deal with that down the road. They both smell so wonderful...I might have to hoard the Chocolate Kisses w/Sugar Milk for myself....lol Thanks for the comments! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaybee23 Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 Great job on your soaps. Like Brenda, I also find making soap is one of the greatest stress relievers for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CareBear Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 Lovely soap! I love love love making it, planning, measuring, melting, mixing, pouring, coloring, swirling.... I dream of where to buy lye (well, I did before I got a 50# bucket - I will tell you all about that some day).The easiest professional touch is to bevel the edges. You can use a vegetable peeler or get a beveling tool (Soapmaker Man makes one, or you can get from Kangaroo Blue and others). But that can come later!
