sandissoap Posted October 3, 2009 Share Posted October 3, 2009 I don't think I've ever actually posted any soaps so I decided it was time to post a few of my newest swirlies. Made these 2 last week! They are MP. Green is Apple, the blue is Ocean. Sorry if they are a bit big....still figuring this out. I resized them smaller but not sure if they are small enough.Here's a few more...

heidijo Posted October 3, 2009 Share Posted October 3, 2009 Very nice, I didn't know M&P could swirl so much! And the little pumpkins are so cute with their yellow eyes! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kestagano04 Posted October 3, 2009 Share Posted October 3, 2009 (edited) They all look wonderful! Thanks for sharing!ETA...If you don't mind me asking, what mold did you use for the first two? I've been looking for one that has the wavy lines along the bottom like that. Edited October 3, 2009 by kestagano04 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandissoap Posted October 3, 2009 Author Share Posted October 3, 2009 (edited) thanks for the compliment! As for the mold, they are just regular baking silicone molds. I love them but do wish I could get those same molds double the size so I could make less loaves! So easy to unmold, I also use regular wood molds and line with freezer paper.oh and btw, the cinnamon vanilla is also in the same mold but that one has the wavy part on the bottom.

kestagano04 Posted October 3, 2009 Share Posted October 3, 2009 The cinnamon vanilla looks yummy I'll have to look into those silicone molds. Thanks for the info! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheWickedWick Posted October 3, 2009 Share Posted October 3, 2009 Totally gorgeous!! I'm still trying my hand at M&P and of course trying to swirl. Love the look of the cinnamon-vanilla. Beautiful work! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

comfortscents Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 sandi can make m&p soaps do a tango if she tried. Love the pumpkins but my favorite is Ocean...it's funny, I've been asking hubby this last week or so that I need to see the ocean and we are planning on driving down to the jersey shore (only jersey girls are allowed to say shore) but I saw your ocean and it made me heart skip a little..love ya my sista friendpm to sandi...I could say more good things but didn't wanna go overboard...can I get a free bar of the ocean soap??? lmao!!!

Faerywren Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 Those are great swirls for M&P! I play with M&P some, but haven't tried swirling. Are the clear and opaque soap, two different kinds? I wonder if the different densities is what allows these beautiful swirls. Great job, girly. *thumbs up*~Julia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firefly Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 Blue and green ones are stunning, I especially like the swirlies in the green one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wwjacks Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 I love the little pumpkins. I absolutely love the blue one. It looks like clouds over the ocean. Were the swirls easy to do? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandissoap Posted October 5, 2009 Author Share Posted October 5, 2009 thanks everyone! Its nice showing the swirlies to people who appreciate how hard they are! LOL No, they are NOT easy, its taken 8 years to be able to swirl like this in MP. I love making loaves and then its always a surprise when you cut into slices. Most of the time a very pleasant one, every now and then, not AS nice a loaf. Now Ann Marie, like you should talk, you make soaps like most professional cake decoraters make cakes! Thats something I most certainlly can't do. And you will get an ocean soap as soon as I make another batch, that full loaf went to a wholesale customer so I hope I am able to recreate it very very close. First time I made a loaf using Peaks Ocean, what a nice scent.And yes, I almost always use both clear and white soaps both when swirling, dont think that has anything to do with it, I just like the bigger contrast. I've also done swirlies using both clear in varying colors. Tle apple is done in white bases only, the green is an oxide. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dogmom1 Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 (edited) I need to see the ocean and we are planning on driving down to the jersey shore (only jersey girls are allowed to say shore) had to laugh at this, being a jersey girl myself. it's funny how it's so natural to us to call it the shore, instead of the beach!ei i also want to say those soaps are beautiful. i've done some M&P and i can't begin to imagine doing those incredible swirls!
