Although I made these soaps a few weeks ago I haven't had the chance to get online and upload them... but here they are. All are 25% Coconut/75%Olive. Mould is the bottom of a single serve milk container (waxed paper stuff), hence the lines in the bottom.

Suppose to be cranberry but the oil didn't quite work

Cut in half.

Had a Secret Santa and couldn't get a present but took some soaps in for show and tell... ended up wrapping up 4 triangles and put that in. The lady who got it LOVES handmade soap and when I get back down to college next year she wants me to come over and show her how it's made.
 
After finding out the FOs I was using "May not be skin safe" I've had a bit of a break from soap making til I got home from college... last Friday I got creative and made a lovely honey carrot batch. Cooked and pureed the carrots, added the lye to the carrots and then added the honey mixed with a bit of oil at trace. It smells honey-ish and are slowly curing.

I got some skin safe FO's on Monday and made this batch with Baby Powder FO on Wednesday, forgot to account for the water and ended up with too much for my container, but made 3 little 'cups' with the rest. It's about 85% OO/15% CocoOil.

It's still a bit soft but should harden up over time

Love the swirl in it, it's shiny cause I just took it out of the freezer to unmould it.
 
Yet another batch of carrot honey, no idea how I got the swirl in there but I like it!
