Experimentation


My Second Soap I tried to blend the colours into each other. Its Mandarin and Ginger.




My most recent soap, i tried to get creative, maybe to creative for my ability!? I couldn't control the bubbles! they got stuck in there everywhere!! It turned out nothing like i had planned but still... Its become my disco tub soap! Lavender, eucalyptus and ylang ylang... Lovely!

My First Soap!



This was my first attempt at soap making... well the result of my first soap going very wrong. I tried a double layer soap which didn't stick together. So i sliced them up and put them into a new soap. The end result... Peppermint Ice soap!

New adventure

I have been crafting for quite some time and have been looking for a new adventure. I came across handmade soaps and have become completely obsessed!!! There are endless possibilities, I cant get enough... though i have yet to try and make some myself. All the research is done, i've looked at enough handmade soap recipes and websites, its time to try and create my own. Hopefully you will join me on my journey to becoming an expert soap maker! (any tips welcome). I'll be posting all my results here for you to see, from the marvellous, to the rubbish. 

I will be starting soon, so fingers crossed!
