HP 1st attempt

[Guest]

Here are some lavender and eucalyptus scented bars, coloured with alkanet root. I'm quite content, still have that warm gushy feeling from cutting the bars

fantastic color! how much alkanet did you use ppo?

 

[Guest]

I used roughly 3 tsps of alkanet, infused them in olive oil for a week and then strained with a cheese cloth and soaped 8)

Ohh I love that!!

Looks like you had the same flower drag I did yesterday - bottom to top cuts will eliminate that

Do you mean the crumbly bits? I'm in need of a flat scraper thingy to smooth it all down.

Sorry if I assumed or come off rude, I was just mentioning it as I related and wanted to pass on a tip in case you didn't know it

Oh no, I didn't read it that way. I wondered what the scratch marks were and luckily I didn't get any with the second batch of HP.

Very nice SFB, and I love that feeling of first cutting into a new batch of soap, too, almost as much as making it or maybe a little bit more!

What a great tip!!! Something as simple as that and it is ingenious!

SFB - love that colour! Nicely done!
