    Entry thread for the November Challenge - Rainbows

    Hi all, So excited to enter my first soap challenge! My entry is my 2nd attempt at this technique. I was so concerned about the batter thickening up on my first attempt that I poured it when it was too thin. The 3rd photo is from that batch. The 2nd batch was a little too thick, but I got the...

    soap for the kitchen

    Great soap. You are rocking the embeds. And I still can’t believe a house without a kitchen! That’s so nuts. Glad you got it done before Covid closed all restaurants down.

    SMF Challenge November 2021 - Rainbows

    I did the same thing! I was so worried about the batter thickening that I underblended it. It did harden, but the colors mixed too much. I did it again and blended it too much. I’m referring to my soaps as the Goldilocks soap. I had the too thin, and too thick, but I’ll be damned if I make it a...

    Ta-da!

    @Zing The soap is leaps and bounds better than last year’s soap. Which was still very nice. I think you need to look for diamond-shaped embeds for next year. 😁

    What soapy thing have you done today?

    Tried to make my rainbow soap for the soap challenge last night. You see the key word in that sentence, right? I was so worried that the batter would thicken up on me while I was pouring the 7 colors, that I underblended the batter. It was a liquid mess. Sigh. Gonna give it another try today.

    Ta-da!

    I feel like I answered this same riddle last year. It was @KiwiMoose that jogged my memory with the sports guess.

    Hi @Dawni ! Happy to hear you are recovering. I reappeared after a long hiatus and was wondering where you were. Glad you didn’t have to be hospitalized! Take care

    Sounds like a dream job. Will work for wine. A fun twist on Will work for food.

    My soap seized again

    You could make other things like lotion bars with the fragrance

    What soapy thing have you done today?

    I cut the soap I made yesterday. The first one is the attempt at the line pour that turned into a line plop. I love it! Disasters often come out in ways that you couldn’t plan. Or replicate for that matter. I cut the center bar on a different axis, so you can really see where in the pouring the...

    What soapy thing have you done today?

    This is the update on the soap I made using indigo. Originally I had two colors, the pink which was the top of the soap, and then the deep blue where I made the cuts. Fast forward a few days and the pink is still pretty much unchanged, but the deep blue is now more gray. And now you can really...

    What soapy thing have you done today?

    I made two batches of soap today. The first is a re-do of my indigo soap. And the second was supposed to be a thin line pour soap, but my eo blend accelerated the batter and I ended up half pouring, and then half plopping it into the mold, so it is a mystery loaf. Could be good, could be...
