[@sheilamennie8141]

you inspire me, as a new soaper, you give me the confidence to try your techniques.. your soap is lovely and I thank you

[@Alyathaean]

Great design, great colors. Never thought about cutting the soap that way. Still a newby but learning. And soapmaking is so much fun!

[@elainewright86]

Thank you. When you have a design that goes all the way through the loaf, it is best to cut it this way. Welcome to the wonderful world of soaping. Yes it is a great way to release your creativity. A person can really get addicted. :-) Enjoy your journey !

Wowzers!! So pretty! Love it.

[@elainewright9750]

Thank You ! Your soap is pretty too.

[@phoebesue3008]

Thanks, but soda ash is ruining all my soaps, alcohol does not help. I am so discouraged by it I haved stopped soaping.

[@elainewright9750]

How much ash are you getting ? Have you tried to in your soaps under a light stream of water. That will remove the ash if it's a thin layer on the top.

[@phoebesue3008]

+Elaine Wright Thanks so much for asking. My soap always has a very thin layer of ash on the top, just enough to really ruin the colors. I have used alcohol lightly, heavily, steamed it, run it under both cold and hot water...nothing takes it off. My ash isn't like a light dusting, it's a thin layer, but really seems really embedded on there. I have recently read that a recipe heavy on the hard oil side, which mine is, can cause ash, so I am going to modify. Ugh, so disappointing. Thank u Elaine.

[@elainewright9750]

My soaps have a light coating of ash on them too. I wash the soaps under a light stream of water so not to cause bubbles. Just rub the top of your soaps and it will come off. I hope this works for you. It does for me.

[@shirleystory1835]

Love watching your videos. I like the interesting swirls you get. Thank you so much for sharing. It gives me the courage to try some of these techniques as I don't sell my soap, but It's therapeutic for me to make it!

[@elainewright9750]

Your so welcome. I always got a satisfaction from making soap. I no longer make soap and do miss it. Thank you for watching.

[@margaretduvall3878]

So beautiful! I couldn't bear to use your soap. . . I'd have to keep it just to look at.

[@elainewright9750]

+Margaret Duvall Thanks, I always tell people they can always give them as gifts when they tell me that. I try to keep a bar or two. I make so much soap I have to sell it so I can make more. ;-)

[@suep4226]

I've just now discovered you via an older Soap Queen video. I absolutely love your soaps Elaine! I think my favorite is your first Taiwan Swirl Circle...beautiful! I've yet to make any soaps, trying to learn as much as I can first. Thanks for the inspiration!!

[@Tamer87712]

When you were making the batter and pouring to the mold, colors were much much bright. Do you liquid coloring or mica? Thanks

[@elainewright9750]

Mica

[@Tamer87712]

@@elainewright9750 What do you think is the reason for the color fading?

[@ginascott6068]

[@elainewright9750]

+Gina scott Thank you Gina.

[@Allioops810]

I'm binge watching your videos! Thank you making them. I have never tried to cut the soap this way. How many oz of oils do you use in your recipes when you make soap to cut this way?

[@elainewright9750]

Hi Allison, I am making a 2 pound batch. It all depends on how big your mold is You want the bars to be at least 1 inch or more.Thank you row watching.

[@Allioops810]

+Elaine Wright thanks for the reply. I have the same molds as you do. I'm going to try a soap to cut like this.
