Designs and "tops/peaks"

Shalisk · Aug 5, 2014

Where can I find how to do some of these decorative tops or swirls and such. I hunted around in Youtube and its FULL of some seriously bad videos, and also some decent ones but nothing that shows how some nice tops and interesting swirls?

I have my size down, and a couple recipes I like, I am looking at trying to make them more visually nice now

Man im bad with words today :/

I think YouTube is really going to be your best bet. I don't know what you mean by bad videos. Quality? I love YouTube soaping videos. If you haven't seen the soaping101 series on YouTube I suggest you check them out.

This video might not be the best but it shows 3 methods to texture the top. For swirls,

I like this soapmaker's videos. It doesn't exactly show how it's done but you can still learn from it. If not, check out soaping101's videos. they are really awesome to watch.

This is a long video with way too much talking but if you skip to minute 22, you can see a very nice texture technique.

I have watched ALL th soaping 101 vids (Before I bought my first stuff TO make soap) and by 'bad' I ment 'not what im looking for' the two linked here are good, the first one had found, and the second one is a bit talkie but has some nice form in it

Thanks guys <3
