Uncertain

This soap turned out fine but I'm uncertain if I like this style well enough to do it again with different colors. I hate it when I feel like that.

Ribbon Pour-same pour, different effect

Continuing to practice this pour, the ribbon pour, in different patterns and different mold. I had some troubles with this one because I used an accelerating FO which got ricey in the middle of the process, but I got a few good bars out of it. I had to gel to get the red, as it is a garish pink ungelled, so the ricey parts got a funky texture. So it goes.



I made a video of the process, if you have any interest.

It's a very useful technique with loads of potential so I suspect I will continue to try different variations.
