In honor of international women's day

[Todd Ziegler]

I made these in honor of "Women's day" they are the colors of the original suffrage movement, purple, yellow/gold and green. I put my abstract twist on them. The green kind of took over but in person they are cool.

Very cool!

Thanks. It didn't turn out exactly like I had planned. I split the batch up evenly and I meant to make less of the green, so it didn't overwhelm the other colors but I forgot to. In person it looks a lot better.

Nice. So what's your mold? It's unique.

I got that from Wholesale Supplies plus. It is a 5 pound half moon shaped mold. I was a little worried about using it at first because it is a plastic mold and I thought getting the soap out would be difficult. Since I use sodium lactate and put it through a long gel phase, it shrinks just enough over night, so that the soap comes right out. I put rolled up towels on either side of it when I pour to keep it steady and level. After about 30 minutes I remove them and it does just fine but I also cover and tuck towels around it for the gel phase.
