I cut my chocolate soap today and it looks pretty, but I forgot to take pics before I put them away. Smells yummy.
Then I got myself wrapped up in a soap dough snowman project inspired by Soy and Shea's you tube video. I have been collecting soap dough from leftover soap just for this. I got my little snow guys and gals put together. I think they are going to stick LOL. I never molded soap dough before. The heads kept falling off. I guess I wet them too much.
I am one hour past my bedtime already, so I am going to have to put clothes on them tomorrow. Some of them look pretty sad, which is why I made extras. But as soon as I get hats and scarves on them, I think they will look a little more happy LOL

Had to make a quick batch of soap using the massage bar mold?!November is my birthday month & a dear friend of mine had silicone molds delivered to me today!
Nailed it!I unmolded soap today expecting it to be a disappointment as to how I pictured it. I’m so happy! “…bought the FO Santa’s Pipe and was trying to go for a Santa, smoky, cherry, snowy on the boots etc look
I remember the last time you showed us a pic of the container with that colorant. My recommendation was to throw it away, along with the spatula and anything that has spatters on it. But the color sure morphs into a pretty green, so maybe you can just put it in a room where you don't have to look at it while it does its thing?this is pre and post cpop Andy the Money @Zing LOL. Just to make the visual real

Oh thats interesting' great info too. . Oh I gotta tell you' yesterday while shopping I spotted " mustard seed oil" & instantly thought of you & your soap you used it in. lol .That's a pretty colour! And the colour strength looks quite decent. The paprika powder is a great source of uncertainty, there are so many varieties out there and not all of them are as brilliantly coloured (or as mild ) as one would like them to be for soap. When I used paprika oil, I got actually paprika kernel oil, i. e. the fatty oil pressed from the kernels of bell peppers. A small oil mill sells these, never seen anywhere else yet. Very pure colour, scarlet red in the single % area, and at higher dilutions more salmon/peachy/apricot coloured. Full saturation, with not the faintest brownish tone (and zero sediments to care of).
ETA: I have bought the mild and the hot variant, and I'm through the mild, with only the hot one left, and I WILL NOT use it in soap .
Love your soaps! Very tie-dyedesque!I finally got to try infused paprika oil in soap' yay. It turned out more of a rusty reddish color, I thought would be more red/ pink shades.
For infusion i used ( 12g of paprika infused in 57g of MCT oil for 4 days in the fridge, stirring a couple times a day. I extracted oil w/a dropper being careful not to disrupt settled paprika on the bottom of container, then used a mesh strainer to assure no small particles were in oil, or least amount possible.
In soap I used 1oz infused MCT oil & 1tea of rose kaolin clay. scented w/ peppermint & orange EO.
These ZNSB (Zany’s No Slime Bastille) bars hardened in a flash. Made these this morning & not a single squish during removal from my new birthday molds just shy of 12 hours later. Cozy Flannel FONovember is my birthday month & a dear friend of mine had silicone molds delivered to me today!

But most importantly I'm impatiently waiting for my micas, which sadly have not arrived yet. I was hoping they would arrive before the weekend. So I'm debating if I should get on with my Christmas soap in the meantime - the issue is, I really wanted to make the rainbow soap lol, so much that I have the rainbow design all planned but the Christmas one not yet fingers crossed that my postman delivers the micas tomorrow morning!
Beautiful! Everything is so well done - soaps, packaging, etc. Good luck with the stampede.Getting ready for my first indoor farmers market in my small town. Here’s my trial run setup, I smudged out my business banner logo for this forum but I’m really excited about it. Fingers crossed!
