Browsing soap pics

[navigator9]

I was browsing on Pinterest this morning, and I found this really cool rimmed soap. So I clicked on the pin, and read (had to translate it) her blog post. Found her inspiration and did a search. Not sure what language that is (Russian maybe?) but her pictures and soaps are amazing!

This is the original soap that I saw on Pinterest.

Yes, she really has this technique mastered. I've posted a couple of pics of her soaps earlier in this thread. They're amazing, aren't they? So precise.

Yes! I sat there with my jaw on my lap!

Nice use of mica lines.

I had to do a double take on this. Thought it might be M&P because of the intensity of the color and how it's put together but it's CP.

I like these. My only disappointment is that it doesn't go all the way through the soap so the pattern is gone too soon.

You could try something similar by putting drinking straws into the mould to create voids and filling with colours. Then you could purple the little accents on top, part of the pattern would last longer then. It would be pretty fiddly though.

The first bar reminds me of pictures from the Hubble telescope of cosmic gas clouds. A shiny black bar is always classy and a thing of beauty.

Whoa. I'm kinda in love with these.

Hey, why aren't those rose petals turning black where they're touching the soap, like mine did? Why, why, whyyyyyyyy??? (she sniveled) That's a fabulous looking soap.

I was thinking it was HP, a beautiful HP at that. That would have certainly help the flowers from discoloring.

I keep trying the rose petals. No matter what I do they always end up ugly and brown after curing.

The rose petals also look dried. Does that make a difference?

How come we didn't get a new pic today? WE WANT MORE! WE WANT MORE!!

I want to have a go at something like this soon.

Sadly, it does not make a difference. I dried lots of pink rose petals, and peony petals too. They looked beautiful at first, then black. Rats! The lye monster strikes again.

I forgive you. My sis is here visiting, and she is apparently just as hooked now on soap p@rn as I am even though her first creation was just a couple days ago. We oogled through the first 25 pages of this thread together before realizing the dog really did need to be let out. Listening to her moan was kind of funny and a great vindication of my own mind's explosions!

Looking forward to our next 100 pages together -- thanks newbie for strengthening sister love!

 

[newbie]

Ah, soap pics increasing sisterly bonding is such a good thing!

 

[newbie]

It's difficult to find a pic of a soap that is novel, a technique or look not seen in some variation before but every now and then.....
