I tried to make soap curls but I gave up because it's too much hard work.

I filled in my cracks and holes and it was very satisfying....

I'm not sure what I expected when I made this French clay soap but it's given me inspiration. It looks like mountains and clouds, totally by accident. That's why soap making is so much fun. I'm now going to try and make a Scottish mountain night scene based on this happy accident.

I thought TikTok was just for teenagers but apparently it's quite big. I've still got a MySpace account... I need dragging into the future.

I'd like to know what that is as well. Like the colour though.

I took your advice onboard. I'm not brave enough to make such a massive slab of soap yet.

Getting ready to film another soap.... This is ridiculously addictive.

That is very interesting. I never even gave it a thought.... going to look into it now, thanks! I only just got my CPSR back a few weeks ago so I'm only building up stocks at the moment. Was going to get the public liability just before my first craft fair in July.

I made a wee video but I'm always looking for inspiration...

I would never have put green with brown, but they look stunning.

I'd love to know if any SoapMaking Forum members are making videos and posting them online. I've just started so I'd love to see what you're doing. Post your YouTube link here so I can follow you!

There's one near me in two months and I'm thinking about going. Would love to hear all about it! What would you do differently next time etc....

Thanks, you're right. You'll notice that I changed to a plastic jug after the first layer.
