Old Lady Lavender

[dOttY]

Ok, so I'm not a big fan of Lavender. It reminds me of old ladies at bingo, for some reason! But I think I might be in the minority as I know a lot of people that just love it! (and no, they aren't old, nor do they play bingo, haha)

Here's another of my Lavender efforts...

For the life of me, I can't get a centred, internal swirl!

Oh, my goodness, that is stunning. Stop worrying, your soaps are truly amazing. I wish mine looked half as well.

 

[Crafty Rose]

Wow that is amazing.

For the record, I also don't like lavender, a down fall as I love the colour purple so most people equate it with lavender.

Forget about the centered internal swirl......those are just georgeous......and I LOVE purple as well

 

[Bubbles Galore]

I love that one. :wink:

 

[Elly]

lovely swirls and I love lavender

I'm not a huge lavender scent lover either, but those soaps are beautiful!!! I think I could stand the scent with those wonderful swirls.

Oh my Dotty's done it again, If my soaps looked like that I wouldn't give a fig that there wasn't an internal swirl. Gorgeous Dotty!!

Now THAT is NOT an "old lady" soap! That is gorgeous!

(I hate lavender too) but it looks just gorgeous! Your photos are inspiring me to play with my tops more!

That is a beautiful soap!
The contrast is lovely and VIBRANT!

If Lavender is not your fave, how about one of the other purple florals like Hyacinth or Lilac or Sweet Pea?

 

[LauraHoosier]

That is so beautiful! I love the colors!

So when you going to start teaching classes hmm? lol jk

 

[Araseth]

Doesn't look old lady to me, looks fab!

That is beautiful soap. I am not a big lavender fan either, but I recently switched to Bulgarian lavender. I really like it.

 

[soapbuddy]

It looks good to me!

 

[Krisduff]

Beautiful soap. I really like that colour purple. Ifyou don't mind me asking, did you use mica to colour it?

 

[newbie]

I second the coloring question. The contrast between the white and that deep purple is marvelous and the soap is beautiful. The color reminds me of mulberries. Willing to part with what you used to get that?

And don't worry, your soap will get snatched up in a heartbeat!

 

[Mouse]

You should be proud of this one...it's beautiful!!

I'm also not a fan of lavender, but last week I soaped BB's new FO lavender & chamomile (Huggies type...smells just like baby wipes!) and it is gorgeous, not your typical lavender at all.

Your lavender soaps look lovely
