Soap Gemstones

[ourwolfden]

Hello. Has anyone ever made soap gemstones? I have found these:

But part of me thinks it must be a lot more complicated. Has anyone tried this? Have pictures to show? Or helpful hints? I would like to make something like this for my Papaw’s Christmas present (he was a rock hound back in the day).

No, but I think the soap gem stones from this tutorial are more realistic. I bought the mold, but haven't tried the gem stones yet.

Never made them but they look cool.

lsg- That is awesome! I love those... I think I need to find those molds!

Okay lsg, can you point me in the right spot to look? The company I thought that sold it doesn't have it, it is a smaller mold then this one. Thanks.

I specialize in doing gem/ mineral inspired soaps. Honestly it just takes a bit of practice, play and patience. I prefer cutting mine by hand but there are lots of cool looking molds to be had as well.
I made a tutorial a couple years ago on a layered crystal soap you can find here: http://adkaromatherapy.blogspot.com/2011/07/terra-crystal-tutorial.html

Best of luck in your endeavors!
