Hi Guys! New Here!

[dreamcatchergirl]

Hi Everyone!

I just joined tonight and I must say that I am very excited to be here to learn from all of you! I have been soaping on and off as a hobby for a few years now and it has become one of the most therapeutic things for me to do. I love creating and I am also a bit of a science nerd, so this gets to tickle both fancies of mine!

I hope everyone here has been having a great day and has been working on some wonderful soap projects! What was your most recent one and how did it come out!? What did you learn from it? Talk to you guys again soon!

:bunny:

Hello and welcome! My last project was a batch of salt bars. It was the first time I've tried to make them. I think they turned out ok, but I try not to form a firm opinion until they're cured.

Hi Dreamcatchergirl and welcome!:bunny:

I'm in the middle of finishing up the first of my holiday scents. Seems weird to make bayberry, pine, gingerbread and the like in July/Aug right? My first (and biggest) holiday fair is in the middle of Sept so I've got to be a season or 2 ahead!

We LOVE soap photos so please share some of your favorites!

Hi Dreamcatcher, and Welcome!

I make mostly lotions, potions and liquid soap. My latest soapy adventure was making 100% coconut oil LS using the microwave. A little dicey, and I wouldn't recommend anyone should try it, but it turned out great! Now I have to repeat the process to see if I can duplicate the result. Just as soon as I can carve out a little time all to myself. :grin:

Hello and welcome! I haven't made soap or anything else for that matter in awhile. My last adventure was making soap for wedding favors for a wedding next month.

I am Dev. I just join this forum. I want to say hi everyone.

Hi Dev. You should start your own thread in the introduction forum. :bunny:

Welcome dreamcatchergirl. I only recently started soaping, but I'm already hooked. Most recent project was a rebatch of a couple of soaps I'd made. I learned two things. First, that red is not a good color choice for rebatched soap and second, that it only takes a teeny, tiny bit of red iron oxide to color a batch of soap. I wound up with bloody raw meat soap.

Welcome, Dreamcatchergirl! :wave:

My last batch was a salt-bar batch. It's just finishing up curing.

My apologies for interrupting this thread, Dreamcatcher and all, but I think Dev needs a bit of help...
