ChandlerWicks Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 (edited) I didn't get as many swirls in as I wanted, but it was still a lot of fun to make. I made a contraption with 12 skewers attached to make the 1st drag. Then went the wrong(incorrect) way to make the actual swirls with just 1 skewer. Did I need to use the 12 skewer rake at all? Thanks for looking!Nevermind went back & watched video again & saw where I went wrong. So much to learn, but what fun the mistakes are.

ChandlerWicks Posted September 8, 2012 Author Share Posted September 8, 2012 Thanks BTA! It has 7 different colors, but I don't think they're all going to show. Maybe once it's cut. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChandlerWicks Posted September 8, 2012 Author Share Posted September 8, 2012 Thanks Girls! Making me feel better! I keep peaking & it's getting duller & duller. If it hasn't heated up at all, will it still complete saponification? So much to read & learn. But I learn best by doing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ksranch Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 WOW!! You guys that do those never cease to amaze me.. so brave and talented... I can't wait to see it cut!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JanetsCandles Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 Gorgeous! And yes, you can get soap without having the heat (gel phase). I do it quite often. Heck, some folks put their wet soap in the freezer or fridge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scented Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 (edited) Well that's a fabulous looking screw up Wherever you went wrong, remember it so you can do it again. I really like this look!

KrazeKelly Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 Sometimes it takes a while before it starts heating. I've made some at night and it not start to gel til the next morning. It's very pretty and I'm sure you will be surprised how pretty it's going to be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChandlerWicks Posted September 9, 2012 Author Share Posted September 9, 2012 Thanks Everyone! It's still soft & gooey in some spots. Maybe it's all the peaking! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChandlerWicks Posted September 10, 2012 Author Share Posted September 10, 2012 Thanks Imc, MWs Morning Sunrise. The scent is so strong in the soap, much better then in my wax. Brisk, citrusy & delicious!The soap never gelled, colors are muted now but still kinda pretty! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

debratant Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 ooh, it's so pretty! sucks when the brightness fades don't it? but, it will still be pretty. polish it up with a bit of panty hose to make it shiny! oh, after it hardens awhile.
