SMF November 2024 Challenge - Hello Yellow!

[Zing]

Well, I just made the mistake of looking at the competition entries today. Wow! And, @McKherring Farm , that buttercup mica is trippy. I also got orange while mixing so I kept adding more and more mica and getting more and more orange. But after gelling, it was a nice yellow instead.

I know, right!!?? I couldn't believe how orange it looked at first.

@Zing and @McKherring Farm I was hoping someone would use one of the morphing yellows so that everyone could see that it is not uncommon for that to happen, and to not panic when it does. FWIW, Lemon Drop from Nurture doesn’t morph in soap batter.

So I'm wondering if gold mica counts as yellow it kinda looks beige in my CP soap.

I guess if the gold looks more yellow than tan it will be okay, but the challenge is really to use something that is yellow, and there are lots of options to create a yellow color. But I do understand that getting supplies is difficult for you right now with the postal strike in Canada and I really want you to be able to take part in the challenge.

@Ford your yellow color is gorgeous, and your springy soaps are very pretty I think you will really enjoy using them in the cold, dark months of winter.

Oh actually I'm lucky I have a really nice yellow I love using for my 50% yellow but I'm mixing gold as one of my colors and wondered if I should include that in my percentage of yellow your right it's definitely a tan color. So I guess I won't include it in the percentage Thank you! P.S. my stuff should be here tomorrow.

@GuacamoleSalad your white pattern reminds me of the birds in an Escher painting.

I'm loving all the entries so far! You guys are amazing. I can't wait to see everyone else's.
The fates have worked against me this month. I tried to get yellow today and ended up with orange. We'll see what happens tomorrow when I unmold.
