A Little Bit Behind

I completely forgot to post pictures from my mass soaping the other day! Hubs was home on Monday so I took the opportunity to lose myself in the soap kitchen for a while. I am wanting to soap all of the Twilight fragrances so I continued with four more of those. I've already soaped Alice and Bella if you remember. I soaped Edward, Jasper, Jacob, and Forks. This picture is in opposite order that I soaped them in.


Edward began to heat up in the mold and so I quick threw him (lol) in the freezer. I ended up with a partial gel. I was totally ok with the soap at cutting time.


Then this happened...



I'm still stewing over how to better soap this fragrance next time. I wish Alice could have let me in on that one. :-P

The next soap I did was Jasper. I wanted the same white top as Alice and Bella. (Did you notice I'm doing the same design only with different colors?) I was very happy with the coloring.



Then it changed as well. It only went to more of a lime instead of mint but I'm still ok with that!



As you see in the previous picture, Jacob has remained unchanged. Seems odd with him being a shape-shifter...well, whatever. :-)



I intended Forks to be darker but last minute the dark green I was going to do became gold. I didn't want to soap another green. However, the gold didn't end up showing up as anything other than cream. When I soap it again, I will make it a darker soap as Forks should be darker. But in general, I LOVE this soap!



Yesterday my morning started off kind of rough and by afternoon I was feeling so good and full of energy that all I wanted to do was make soap. So I soaped Carlisle and Esme. It wasn't all smooth sailing but thankfully, those two fragrances move super slow and I had plenty of time to work. Carlisle is blue/white and Esme is peach/white.



You'll have to check out my YouTube channel for the videos. I have making and cutting videos (eight total!) of Edward, Jasper, Jacob, and Forks up now. I will be uploading a video of making Carlisle and Esme later on today!

Hi Holly!
I’m I big fan of yours, I love your videos!!! You’re just amazing…
Unfortunately I don’t speak a very good English therefore I don’t understand every single words you say. If you don’t mind I would like to ask you if you could write some of your recipes so that it would me more easily for me to traduce them.
Thank you very much!!!
