Ugh...i had such high hopes. My soap ended up getting to thick an then wouldnt swirl properly. Now it looks like giant blobs and it was supposed to be a gift. Sigh.

Its the cut inside, i like the top. I have a hard time with trace and letting it get to thick
You wouldn't know it by looking. They are very pretty.

I have a fast tracing recipe so I always try to just stick blend to emulsion (literally like 30 seconds on the stick blender at a pulse) Even then it will usually thicken up by the time I split it off, color and scent.

I agree.. If you didn't say I would not have guessed they weren't intended to look the way they do and I think it's a pretty soap :)

You're being way too critical, dear!! These are gorgeous and I would be thrilled to receive these!
No worries ~ Present these with a beaming smile and no one will know that you were disappointed.

Lol maybe u r right. Ty so much!
 
I bet if you put this soap away for a couple of months and looked at it again, you would think, "Hey that really looks pretty good."
 
They are really pretty soaps. I am sure you are disappointed because they did not turn out the way you had envisioned, but the person you gift them to will think they are beautiful.
 
I'm sorry the soap didn't match your dream, you did a really good job, it is beautiful. I think you the person you gift it to will be very happy with it.
