Melt and pour loofah with unicorn poo piped on top. With a flower embed because unicorns can just do that! These were made with shea butter, coconut, olive oil, cinnamon bun fragrance, micas blue, raspberry vibrance, neon pink. My piping is getting better. Practice practice practice. The loofahs are coated with remelted mp soaps that didn't sell. Good way to repurpose that. I'm so looking forward to more challenges it keeps us soapers in the loop!

Juicy Orange from Nuture's Soap. Love love this citrus scent! For the mold a plastic wine glass. These popped out of that glass perfectly and they look like bells! Never mind the Christmas ball molds these are way easier and bigger! Simple basic recipe: 2 cups baking soda, 1 cup citric acid, teaspoon fragrance oil or essential oil, teaspoon gel colour or you could use food colours. 1 tsp oil I used sweet almond oil. You could use melted shea butter, cocoa butter or your choice. I also added irredescent glitter to the mix (optional) Witch hazel or water in a spray bottle. (Be careful with spritzing so you don't create the reaction) I used water. Mix all ingredients except the water and blend thouroughly. Spritz lightly so mixture clumps well in your hand and sticks together. What I did was double this recipe so when I spritzed I did a bit at a time just to moisten the bit I was getting into the wine glass. I scooped it in and pushed it with my fingers then added more to fill the goblet. When full I twisted the bottom with the palm of my hand to smooth out. Then knock on the top of the glass with a spoon and turn it round tapping until you hear it pop and it let it fall into your hand. Have a cookie sheet ready lined with parchment paper and set your bombs there to dry. I topped them off with more glitter for extra glam. These turned hard quickly too! Love this recipe was so simple. Today I made 34 bombs these will be going to market for a Christmas show in a couple weeks. These are going for 7.50 each cdn. And I think a bomb would make such a good stocking stuffer don't you?! Thanks for stopping by the soap kitchen once again till next time. Bye for now 
I added some red and green mica to the cranberry bomb I wish I would have maybe not done that. Too late now. I thougt it maybe festive, I'll leave that up to you to decide. 
What a great hall! Huge. We had a super turn out and lots of great people. Good food. Hot dogs sold out, chilli and a bun soooo good. I went to get a dog but waited too long when I got the chance they were gone. I opted for the chilli and it was so warming and filling. I will be back to this hall in the future. 
Me the Soaplady, aka Bathwoman. My table half sold out today I'm very pleased. One more craft show coming up on Saturday, November 20 in Upsala my next favourite place! Thanks for staying with me in my soaping adventures I love you all and thank you for your support. Bye for now. 
This is the first Christmas soap I have made so far. It's overflowing with a ton of soapy goodness. Avalanche fragrance from Nuture's Soap, a lovely fresh fragrance that reminds me of snow and crisp air with a note of pine (to me anyway) it really pops in the cp. I wanted to create a soap to match the name of the fragrance, mountains, snow peaks, trees tumbling ice and brrrr cold. With my new piping kit from Royalty Soaps I ended up with way more soap then I was prepared for and ended up using the rest of the soap batter to make embeds. I used blue vibrance mica from Nuture's, midnight blue mica from TKB, white titanium dioxide ( water soluable type) poured them random in the mold and spoon swirled it. Took the rest of the soap colours and piped the top, then piped on the peaks. I added irredecnt glitter to the soap before pouring and using a pippete drizzled blue vibrance on the top. And more glitter. This soap was oozing off the sides and I had to refasten some of it as it kept sliding down the sides. I thought oh boy I should have made two molds this is not going to turn out. But after sitting and setting up here's the loaf. It looks like an exploding avalanche. To me anyways lolol 
A huge bar too, it wouldn't fit into my soap cutter so I had to carefully cut the bars with a knife and here's the result 
An 8 oz bar and beautiful colours! 
Love the peaks it really is an Avalanche of soap! Somehow the micas muted together at the top and turned green like trees tumbling down. 
Two great end pieces. 
And thirteen bars! Recipe: olive, coconut, palm, castor, canola, sweet almond oil, rainwater (collected) sodium hydroxide and above mentioned micas and fragrance. This was sort of planned but the magic of soap making did the rest! I'm selling these for $13 cdn thanks for stopping by, till next time happy soaping. Bye for now 
Plus a few extra things I ordered. 
These are just two of the colour micas I received in the kit. Purple Vibrance and Gold Shimmer. From Nuture's. I had someone ask me about lavender soap and came up with using these two to create Royal Lavender bars today. The bottom layer of this soap is the purple vibrance then I put a second layer on top of that with the gold shimmer. Then I used the rest of the soap leaving it white and piped the top. Sprinkling it with both purple and gold mica using a pipettes then sprinkled glitter on top. For my first try it looks pretty good. Next time tho I will make the extra batch of Katie's piping recipe so I can make a few layers. This one only has one. 
It's pretty and the lavender eo smells sooo good. If you want to learn how to pipe I suggest you go to YouTube and subscribe to Katie's Channel. You'll be inspired! For now happy soaping. Royalty Soaps and go to Nuture's Soap Supply Carrie will set you up to get going on this new adventure. Look for the Royalty Soap Piping Kit and add it to your cart, seriously! When I cut them I'll post the reveal here. Can't wait! So after the 24 hour wait here are the bars. Gorgeous! 
The photo is sideways but here's the labtl of ingredients in this tea. Using my new fav soap recipe olive, coconut, palm, avocado, sweet almond oils, rainwater, (fresh collected), sodium hydroxide. It's a beautiful conditioning soap. With brewed tea it's exfoliating as well. 
I used little ceasar dog food containers, sterilzed of course, for the soap mold. These make a nice size bar of soap have a pretty design from the ripples on the sides and the soap pops out nicely. In the above photo you can see the beautiful caramel colour the soap turned to from subbing the water with the tea. Beautiful!!! Before pouring the soap I sprinkled finely ground tea into each container so the tops would be covered with tea leaves. 
I designed with a skewer, a leaf pattern and then sprinkled finely ground harvest spice tea on top. 
Here are the two sides. The back is beautiful too with the tea leaf design on the back! Retail $5.50 cdn. Love them. Thanks for once again stopping in and your interest. Until next time. Your fav Soap Lady! Bye bye
Brewed the tea and went through my fragrances and found a honeydew ginger that I thought would go nicely with the theme. I just received an order of micas from TKB Trading and one of the colours I got was China Jade. Beautiful mica with gold shimmer and true Jade green! 
Love the colour. I've heard so many soapers rant about their micas and pigments and now I know why! 
I did this soap in three layers here's the first. When I mixed the brewed tea with the lye it turned this beautiful caramel colour. After I poured it I sprinkled freshly ground chai tea leaves on the top. Second layer: 
Poured the China Jade coloured soap onto the first tea layer. Third layer:
I am anxiously waiting for my piping set from Nuture's Soap and Royalty Soaps as I've been so vamped up about piping. Today I took the rest of the China Jade and put it in a ziplock and should have waited because soap was still soft but whatever piped it on. Fun I can't wait to get the set ! After piping I sprinkled on more full tea leaves and iridescent glitter am happy with the result. 
I can't wait to cut it tomorrow ! 
I had enough Pumkin fragrance for this batch. 
You can see how green the matcha is in the bowl. 
I used the left over ginger chai tea and rainwater and when I added it to the matcha oils it turned the perfect pumpkin colour! I was worried up to this point because I didn't want the soap to be green. Perfect ! I had two old pumpkin soaps left over from last year and thought I'm going to cut them up and throw them in like confetti. They were still good soaps but now are rejuvenated. Soap never goes bad really and these still had the pumpkin scent in them. 
FUN! 
Poured it into the mold and sprinkled on top some pumpkin spice and a tad of allspice to finish it up! I can't wait to cut this one tomorrow. It really smells like pumpkin pie! 
Lastly. I just sold a full batch of tea tree soap and had an order for two bars so I made that again too. This was done in 14 hours and was perfect when I took it out of the mold. The batch makes 6 soaps. Two are gone already leaving me four but that's good for now. I love this bar it's so fresh and pure. Same recipe as above. If you are interested in getting the formulas from me I'd be happy to indulge that info but really if you are wanting to make soap there's secrets that we like to keep. It experimental for each of us. Research, watch YouTube, have fun with it. Thanks for continuing to stop by my soap kitchen come back soon!!!
