Playing with soap balls - Take 2

[Derpina Bubbles]

This is take 2 on the choc mint soap ball style thingo. Not sure what to call these. They look a bit like dominoes to me. I love playing with soap ball embeds!

Oh, it's a huge batch as hubby rigged a mould out of some old draws and he jumped up and down until I used it. Like a cute puppy. If he reads this I'm dead. It made a 6kg log!

Thanks, made my 1st soap in 2004 but haven't really played around with colours and so forth until recently. Didn't have the time to make much. Having a blast now lol

They look gorgeous! I love the tilted colour look and the balls. :smile: I just started making some from soap scraps and plan to plop them all in one soap to make rainbow balls soap.

How do you make soap balls? I've seen them talked about in reference to using up scraps.

I make some out of soap scraps by hand rolling and heaps out of my extra soap from each batch. I always make more than I need for whichever mould, then colour up the extra batter to make blocks of plain coloured soap for embeds. I ended up making a stack of green when I messed a soap up and had to rescue the batter. I scooped those with a melon baller because there was a large block.

Heaps of balls lol. No pencil line, just an odd effect where the 2 lots meet. I thought about doing a pencil line there but chickened out.
