Perfect for Kodachrome! (and probably not unicorns but definitely easter bunnies ;) )
 
probably not unicorns

Not yet, but give me time...you know I'll really screw up at some point. :lol:

Because of the stars, I had to cut the batch a bit oddly so I ended up with 2 skinny pieces. I put them in the downstairs bathroom since the soap is so conditioning I wasn't concerned about it being a young soap. I also wasn't concerned about curing out the excess water since the batch was mostly made up of soap from approximately 2+ months ago. Anyway, the colors are very pretty once they get wet and the blue especially "pops". It really is very colorful soap. I'm happy with it.
 
I think that the black and green swirled because i slid them on the insert instead of layering them the way i had planned. The insert I made was to small so I had to race to prevent the different 1/2s from combining. I was thinking about next time doing the white 1/2 one night and then the black and green the next. but part of me is afraid that they wont stay together if i do it that way. Oh yeah I forgot to mention that I scented it with eucalyptus and white thyme. (which smells amazing btw)
 
I see soap like that and immediately I think - liquify. Those usually turn out to be the best liquid soaps evah.

I don't know if they would stay together but my first thought was they wouldn't. Eucalyptus and white thyme does sound wonderful. I used sage and lemongrass for mine.
 
Scarborough Fair - Parsley was added this soap. This was my third CP. Tried a mantra swirl. Also my first try with titianium oxide, so you might see some white spots.

Bann51 that's only your 3rd cp? It looks great!!!! What did you scent it with?
 
Wow! That looks great! If you hadn't had said it was your third, I would have assumed you had been making soap for a long time. I'm really glad you joined the challenge. :grin:
 
Thanks alot for the positive feed back. I scented it with Spearmint and added dried mint as well.
