I MADE A VALENTINE'S DAY SOAP....it didn't go as planned

Hey Katie could you do a wizard of oz soap? Like… blue and white stripes and Dorothy’s shoes in it or maybe the yellow brick road and emerald city?

[@RoyaltySoaps]

That’s a great idea!!

[@IbidandCat]

The soaps turned out so adorable! I do think the colours would also work really well for Easter. Maybe as a mini egg themed soap?

[@RoyaltySoaps]

It definitely could!!

[@Cerinaya]

It does give me Easter vibes with the colors.

[@annecarroll3445]

"Sweet tarts" is the perfect fragrance substitute for Conversation Hearts. Though Froot Loops might be fun to. The design is lovely and strikes me as quite multi-purpose. Easter, baby shower, sweet gift. I hope to see it again with more confetti.

[@butterflyminder]

This video is just purely a delight from start to finish. Love especially that you detoured off the standard 'frosting dollops and embeds' path.

[@RoyaltySoaps]

Awww thank you!!

[@kaitlin2259]

I love the melt and pour top! Also would love to see how the hollow ones look if turned into a geode

[@RoyaltySoaps]

Oooh yas!!

[@lwilso9152]

If you put a silicone mold in the center of the soap to make it all hollow on purpose, you could take a cast of a real geode to make glittery embeds that fit inside the hollow of the individual bars and attach with melt and pour

[@HighTideSoaps]

The VERY first thing I thought is "Wait...are those Tom Delonge lyrics on her shirt?" and imagine my glee when it WAS! Blink 182 has been my favorite band since I was in grade 9, and I'm now 37. I have to get myself one of those shirts!

[@neretaireamenhotep2186]

I am TOTALLY digging the hollow hearts that are open all the way thru the bar. Very cool!!!!

[@HeatherVT8]

Ohhh put sparkle on the hearts 💚💕 thennn cover with clear soap 😍

[@xchrysantha]

Ohmygosh the background looks so cute! =) And I LOVE the idea of the top with the clear melt-n-pour, it reminds me of encapsulating things in resin or like fossils in amber (OOOOOOOH potential idea...). =D I hope you and your family and team are doing well Katie, take care!!!!🤗💕

[@RoyaltySoaps]

Thank you so much!!

[@dianaburch69]

This reminds me of a question I’ve had for a long time: can you do a drop swirl with melt and pour inside cold process? I can imagine that an ocean themed bar with a swirl of clear (or clear blue) inside would be really cool!

[@kayla-rae4770]

The lye would probably melt the melt and pour while its setting.

[@mouse589c5]

Kids learn by trying things out with no fear of failure. As adults we need to remind ourselves to do the same. Love the hole in the heart. Love the idea of turning the cavern in the heart into a geode. You could do a celebration one by making a bar from the emoji 🎉 and confetti pieces inside the soap, and then doing little circles in the clear melt and pour on top.

[@justalittlebitmo]

Yay! Another post from The Duchess of Suds 💕🧼

I love the way column embeds look

OOOO a revised Monet inspired soap!! Also the clear top is an interesting way to top the succulent soap- that would be a way to keep the plants as part of the visible design longer.

[@cosmos.cottage]

Thought the empty shelf behind you might look nice decorated with samples of some of your favorite soaps. Keep up the good work, love your videos.

[@Kiki-]

I really appreciate you experimenting more with designs and sharing that process with us!

[@sherit8594]

Thank you for your kind words ☺️ I've recently started watching your channel and had told my daughter that you say this at the end of every video "Do something for yourself...." I was listening to you as you hit the end of your video on April 7, 2021? As you conveyed that you truly were sincere in what you're saying. Let's just say it brought tears to my eyes. You never do know Who is watching/listening and needs to hear this 💜

😍😍

[@kristibunny1620]

Oh I’m excited about columns!!!

[@RoyaltySoaps]

Well…😂👀

[@AshCam-up2cf]

I gotta say, the clear top has given me so MANY ideas. Like why do I want you to do an ocean inspired soap.Where instead of putting embeds on the top you texture it instead , then do a layer of dusting king tut or 24caret mica powder… and I don’t even know if you can add melt and pour on top of a layer of mica powder but if you can… color it with the tiniest bit of blue, then pour it on top and just let it be see thru to the gold layer beneath it. Omg I so need to try and do the send in your own design thing, I’m so inspired!!

[@ShieldofTerror]

I really like the melt-n-pour top. I bet any nature embeds (flowers, acorns, etc) would also look really cool underneath a clear top like that.

[@minakunz1301]

This soap turned out soo great. My kids would love to wash their hands with it! They enjoy watching your videos with me. Greetings from switzerland.

[@JohannaInTheCorner]

You are TOTALLY correct Katie. This was outside your normal soap making practices. Well done for pushing yourself… on camera no less.! It DEFINITELY counts as a WIN!

Katie is the best soap maker there is! She is caring, kindhearted, and makes beautiful soaps. Her videos always bring a smile to my face and are very entertaining.

I wonder if piping the soap into the cane molds would be easier when it’s a little too thick to pour.

[@RoyaltySoaps]

Oooooh

[@andievecchione9315]

I love these. I wonder how this bar would loo with the hearts in another color? Maybe pastels in pink? I think a teeny bit of holo glitter in the shimmer would look good in the melt & pour too, just enough to get some sparkles of light glinting. Otherwise, I think these are a fave of mine.

[@amandacowan699]

I love watching your creative process ♥️♥️♥️. I love your soaps so much I just want to leave a 5 star review of your soap ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Royalty soaps are beautiful pieces of art.

You could make (or maybe buy?) some silicone canes to pull out of the loaf after it cures to have consistent cut outs. Marble color canes could also be really neat
