    July Soapmaking Forum Challenge - Mythological Creatures

    Artemis, I thought about it. It would work on some of the soaps, however the ones with the faces have too many undercuts. I would have to pack and re design certain areas of it. I can work on a new one with molding in mind. That would be the way to go if molding was in the works. Sere...

    The Experiments will continue until the soap dough improves.

    The reducing works, sort of. If you have a free moving design where the details lining up wont matter then it is possible. When you make a cane, you're sticking layers upon layers together to create your design. In Polymer, you rely on the fact that they will stick. They remain in place as...

    The Experiments will continue until the soap dough improves.

    Moving on to more complicated patterns this week. The process is slow because as I have learned, aging the dough, and allowing it to harden to the right stage is key. These canes were cut without the need for alcohol on the blade. They came off as easily as if they were polymer. I am not...

    What soapy thing have you done today?

    Continued to work on the challenge soap even though I was supposed to be finished. It went from 1 soap to 4. I am at the point where an intervention is needed. I cant seem to stop. Help.

    On a more traditional note...

    Ok here is the low down for this soap: Fragrance- I cant leave well enough alone so I combined Brambleberry Mayan Gold with Energy. More Energy than Mayan Gold. I love the combination but had to play around with the ratio. so far 1:2 is working great. Color: The brown is a combination of...

    Soap Dough and Caning with it.

    Carabou, this dough is about 2 months old. I still have some from the challenge that works quite well. As a matter of fact just finished a soap with that same dough. Lin, these are for me. Beside the traditional stuff, I love creating unique soaps. I am finding that some people will pay...
