Oh wow, that turned out perfect! I imagine that is exactly what you were going for. Just beautiful!

You did a fantastic job. The blues are just gorgeous

 

[IrishLass]

I would call it "under the sea."

Great minds think alike- that was the exact name that went through my mind, too!

Those are beautiful. I would call it under the sea as well...great name for it.

Amazing! Way - to - go! Very unique, very you. The kelp, seahorses, starfish, shells, etc on top make me think "Riding the Waves" or "Sea Surf" or something along those lines.

It almost doesn't matter what you call it, you can never forget this soap!

I think I will call it Under the Sea. When I saw it unmolded and cut, that's the first thing I thought about. The song came to me and didn't leave my head for hours lolol.

Yowza! They look beautiful! Love the blues

How about "Galveston 1920"? (before it became incredibly infested with tourists)

You just don't want "Galveston 1900" - when it became incredibly infested with no tourists...

Sorry I couldn't help myself making a hurricane reference. Fun fact: Until fairly recently, you could still find watermarks on the second floors of some of the old buildings.

That is a lovely soap!

No hurricane references yall. I had to take a bath in a tub outside that I had planned to install before Katrina hit us when my pump got wiped out. It was pretty cool though taking a bubble bath under the stars. I have terrible memories of that time and the horror that was all around. Gonna stick with Under the Sea since it makes my head bob thinking about the song from the Disney movie. I do wonder how yall keep those danged sugar pearls from melting when your soaps gel. Some of mine have an orange melted sugar ring around them lol. I went online shopping for some ball bearings to make me a sil mold so I can just make soap ones. The ones Van Yulay sells are supposed to use 1/4" ball bearings as far as I remember reading. Do yall think that 3/8" ones would be ok? Bet it will be hard to get the lil soap balls to pop out being that small. I like that size better though. I guess we'll see whenever I get around to ordering some. Broke till next week between buying soapy stuffs and car parts.

I can't imagine anything being difficult to dislodge from a Van Yulay mold! Those molds are Da Bomb!

 

[neeners]

omg these are BEAUTIFUL!!!

 

[godschild]

Hi katsntx! I haven't gotten the chance to use the Van Yulay molds yet but I would like to whenever I can. Until then, I'm making my own. I was just wondering how hard it will be to get out some that are 3/8" instead of 1/4" because the 3/8" ones that I'll be making will be even smaller I guess we'll see when I get the ball bearings ordered huh lol.
