I love it, nice job!

 

[Jstar]

Really nice Is that glittery swirls in there or just a play of lighting?

A little of both. The blue and green are both micas, and they did manage to retain some reflectivity.

Nice job Daryl.

Way to go, Daryl, it looks great. Were you trying to make your symbol? Looks pretty close, just a little flat!

nice job! where can we vote?

 

[lionprincess00]

seven, only participants have the ability to vote, but we participants will showcase here what we did for everyone

Here is what I entered. It was really the only good bar in the batch, and it is cut thin. I made at least four other soaps (that might be low, I'm trying to forget). You'd think a spoon swirl would be easy but I struggled to create something that was even remotely distinctive to show off the tools and technique. There were some really great soaps entered - like, how did they to that?? I'd be lucky to steal a single vote from them, that's how competitive it was. It was neat to be challenged like this but I could do without the pressure!

Really nice, Carabou. I love your colors. Makes me want to go see the lights.

Here's mine, pink champagne and pears. Not too happy with it but whatever, it was a good learning experience.

 

[CaraBou]

I love those colors, jules. They would be great in an aurora soap. Next time let's conspire!

I LOVED this soap. So unique, and the first thing that came to my mine was Aurora Borealis.

My entry. I layered the black and white and between each layer I sprinkled blue, yellow, and pink micas (the ones on top) and used a bartenders spoon to swirl with. Nothing fancy like some of the ones I saw.

All gorgeous soaps...I need to start working on spoon swirls now Good luck to you all

I love black and white soap. this makes me want to do an ITP swirl to create a marble effect.

Jules, it's very nice if muted I color. What were your colorants?
