Here is my Twilight Woods spoon swirl - I am soo pleased.

First uncut, out of mold -

And then cut and lined up.

I'm doing the happy dance.

They remind me of these popsickles i used to eat as a kid; really neat looking!

jcandleattic, this is so pretty! I love these colors together for TW, I can smell it from here *heart*

Terrific spoon swirl you got there, I'd be proud too! Did it take a long time? Did your soap thicken by the time your were done?? That must have been so exciting to slice!!
Ok, you guys have so inspired me, I have got to try this, I just have a bit of trace performance anxiety if you know what I mean..

As soon as I gather up the courage though, I'm all over it

It didnt' take too long. Maybe 10 minutes from the time I started the spoon swirl to the end?
It was just starting to thicken up on me by the time I was finished. But still fluid enough that when I "shook" it to smooth out the top - it flattened right out - if that makes sense. Also, once I was done, I took a skewer and sort of tried to swirl the top some more, which is why it looks a tad muddy on top... LOL
This was a small 3lb log if that matters as well.

Oh, and yes those are stearic spots. I need to melt/stir/resolidify my palm before I make a new batch of soap with it.
This was a brand new bucket and I completely forgot about that aspect of palm.
But still, I am otherwise loud and proud about this achievement!! LOL
