Blackberry Merlot Wine Soap

[2lilboots]

Ok I simmered the blackberry wine for 1/2 hour let it cool in fridge and added at trace. I used Berry Breeze and Pomegranite FO from ED. TD and Ultramarine Violet. Set up nice. Sitting patiently on my cutting board to be cut.

That is so beautiful!! What an amazing job!! I need to stop with the labeling and get back to soap making so I can try the tiger stripe!! How much of the blackberry merlot did you add? the colors and contrast are great!

Thanks! No I wasn't entering the challenge, I just wanted to see if I could use my thinner soap batter to acheive the stripe look and it worked.

I am so jealous!!!! I saw everyone doing the tiger stripe and I tried it too - and FAILED. Second time I failed, my batter got too thick too fast. Guess I'll just have to try again. I love the idea of wine soap. What is the significance of adding the wine?

Ohhhh.....me likey!

the significance of adding wine to soap is so that I don't drink the whole bottle by myself...lol! No, it adds to my bubbles in the soap. Wine really does make a nice soap.
