The Accidental Bacon Strip (AKA Strawberries & Champagne)

[melstan775]

Well, I swear the internet hates me sometimes! It's taken two hours for YouTube upload the cut video. Blog is also updated and includes details and video, if you're so inclined. I already got a buy offer on this one, but I politely turned it down, insisting it has to cure to even see if it's even usable/ salable.

Without further ado, I bring you the much anticipated..... Drum rolll please... The accidental bacon strip....

It does look kinda like bacon, but I bet is smells wonderful :wink: I really like the way the hanger swirl side turned out.

 

[melstan775]

Thank you, I kind of like that as well!

Oh if only it smelled like bacon, you wouldn't be able to keep any in stock. I think you did way better than I did for a first try, congrats!

Thank you! I think it's going to go anyway. I got an offer for half the loaf by a guy who collects bacon stuff. We'll see if it sets up okay I might let him have it.

I think it looks good.
Kinda like bacon and the bottom soap pic looks like it is smiling at me. :-D

It's totally bacon! Take advantage of things like this, get a bacon scent FO (ive seen it) and next time do the same thing but scent it with bacon. Im sure it will be a huge hit. Who doesnt love bacon?

I think for your first try at both of these swirls, that they are both great...and considering that this is what.....your second ever batch? Clapping while I am typing...now that is hard to do!! :clap:

I love it, the color looks great, the swirl turned out cool.

Oh please tell me you aren't really going to sell soap that you don't even know is "usable".

If you followed her blog she states in her video that this soap is just for her and she is not giving it away let alone selling it.

 

[sistrum]

Well that's good because yesterday on this forum she said she was.

 

[AngelMomma]

I didn't see anywhere that she said she was selling it. But I did see where she said that she wouldn't.

If it sets up okay, she might let him have it. Sounds like she's going to make sure it's usable first. Of course, why wouldn't she? That would be bad business, wouldn't it?

 

[ruby61]

I bet the men would love it. So it looks like bacon, strawberry bacon. Yum!

 

[AngelMomma]

I showed my youngest the pics. She also said that I should make some that looks like that and scent it with a Bacon FO.........."Then you can call it MEATY MAN" That cracked me up! I hadn't even told her other people suggested the same thing. Funny, this soapy addiction must be contaigous.
