'It's hard to explain" omg just as someone watching and loving these videos it's hard to explain to someone else why a 15-20 minute video of a stranger making soap is so freaking awesome and fun and soothing to watch.

[@jenniferslaughter1549]

Katie’s personality, art skill, & creativity is so fun to watch. It may be just soap to someone but in an artist’s hands it’s another medium form for art to come out of.

[@Poetaytoes42]

Lol people give me the most quizzical look when these videos come up in conversation, which is much more often than I would expect! But then the people that know me best don't find it surprising at all 😆

Omg the little black speckles in the frosting are so dang precious. I can't explain why, but I really really enjoy that.

[@mamesmck5236]

Do you... _appreciate that_ ?

[@DaniellaJo]

I think a vintage soap collection would be super fun. Like soap smells from the 80s and 90s as well as designs you would have seen back then and the imbeds could be like the little flower or heart bathroom soaps you saw in someones peach colored bathroom next to the wicker basket of potpourri with a mauve ribbon. You could design one to look like a vintage hand towel with the ribbon embroidery on it or the flower patterned strip of fabric on one end. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@butterflyminder]

...and now I am imagining a Barbie torso emerging from a frosted bar. :)

[@LbEternity]

@@butterflyminder lol. My grandma used to bake us Barbie bday cakes with the Barbie torso and the cake’s a skirt.

[@karolmoreland834]

Vintage 80’s & 90’s 🤣 🤣😂 I was agreeing but was thinking 50’s & 60’s since that’s what is old to me. I was a teen in 80’s & Married @ 1990! Doesn’t seem that long ago!! 👵👩‍🌾

Or with teal, pink, and hot purple! Also, my mom's bath room is still a pale pink; with a pink, blue , and green wall paper border; gold hardware; almond colored fixtures; an almond Formica counter top; and the little wicker basket of pink, white, and peach colored shell shaped soaps (that no one was allowed to use). It was painted in the Spring of '89.

[@camrynmartin5197]

Not a creator - but I understand where you’re coming from! I am a teaching assistant on a therapeutic farm at a school for children who don’t thrive in traditional school settings. I get to work with so many animals, from sheep and llamas to horses and owls and snakes. It’s a dream, but it’s so unique it doesn’t sound real! I usually say “I’m a teaching assistant” if I don’t feel like elaborating, because there are always follow up questions if I add more detail 😂

Would love to see videos about: washing soap dishes (after you make soap), packaging tips, and a refresh on suppliers you love to work with!!

She has made videos on all of that. You might have to dig for them because they're older.

[@arynphillips5888]

@@minawashere8575 I think she usually talks about things like that while doing a regular soap video. That's fine, but hard to find. It would be great for these to at least go in the playlist if not get their own video. Katie is asking for suggestions, after all....

AMEN to your wonderful attitude about “community” to support one another, cottage businesses & the arts!!! This is my favorite thing about you if I had to pick one of my many things I love about you - upbeat, small ego, family oriented, humor, design talent, all of the above! I feel like you are my friend that talks my language every day when I watch you! My hubby does now too!!!

[@jessica_asakura]

I really like how she tells us what exactly makes up the scents on the shopping site. It really helps for those who are scent sensitive to certain scents, and fragrances. Lilies, Patchouli and I do not get along.

[@dwaalatticsalt7886]

Something for the Royal Soap Academy that would be helpful to more than just soap makers is ideas/advice for packaging. I *love* opening up packages from small businesses and it’s put together so amazingly that it’s an experience itself. I would love advice or ideas on how I can personalize and/or customize packaging without breaking the bank.

[@Kiterpuss]

@@naomiroberts6554 Katie literally asked what folks would like to see added to RSA tho

[@DaniellesMicoMarley]

@@Kiterpuss eh, Im underwhelmed by her packaging. Dont bother her, she said a year ago she'd do better packaging and nothing has changed. At all...I order from MORIVERSOAP and her packing is so good I take a picture every time. Makes me feel appreciated as a long time customer. Also, katie customer service is NOT the best. She said if you have any questions go to instagram, they've ignored all my messages and I feel like they're legit questions. Another occasion, I had asked them to combine 2 orders so I dont have to pay for 2 shippings and I asked BEFORE I ordered, Caroline said yeah, so I was thrilled as heck. But they didn't honor it and I had to reach out to them and for them to say "they don't usually do this" made me feel guilty and like it was my fault, after I got the ok from them. ALSO her soaps had little to NO scent. Like they're not using the full recommended percentage of FO now. I use moriversoap and her soap makes the entire bathroom smell so good she also GIVES free samples. Im sorry Katie but this is just FACTS n this is NOT bashing this is my experience after supporting them for at least 3 years and spending hundreds of dollars.

[@dwaalatticsalt7886]

@@naomiroberts6554, I don’t want to waste my time watching 100’s of videos of people I don’t follow and don’t know if I’ll actually like😉 She asked for suggestions, so I suggested something I’d be interested in; it’s not that deep.

Katie, I love using "🍁". I would like to see you do a weather themed soap collection! Like a sunny themed soap, a tornado theme soap, blizzard theme soap, spring theme soap and all that!

[@invaderjill8054]

I understand the explaining what you do complication. I don’t make soap but I’m a web developer and lots of people have no idea what that actually is. I love these videos though. They are so relaxing and creative and uplifting.

[@pixietwitch]

Not a color pallet that I would have thought of, but I like it. It reminds me of old paper items... the cover on old children's books, or old Christmas cards from the early 1900's. Especially the second color up ( the lightest one) is the color of old book pages.

[@sabrinasamsuddin]

"You are not my competition, you are my community" this mindset is so selfless and beautiful. Seriously. I wish you all the happiness and success in life 💛

[@OcarinaSapphr-]

Katie is the kind of creator that makes you wish you could subscribe more than once! Her generosity towards the community is impossibly wholesome...

[@Alpha13Wolf]

I love the color palette of this one it reminds of great grandmother’s children’s room. It was the room my father grew up in and had a lot of old books and board games. It was my escape during the holidays when my large family got together.

I really like the pink. It matches the other colours. This is a really gorgeous soap. Muted colours, but very cozy. Makes me feel like sitting in front of an open fireplace, while it's cold and rainy outside. I wish I actually had a fireplace. Much more romantic than central heating. 😂

I whispered, "STOP, that's so cute," as soon as I saw the soap frosting. This is adorable.

[@caseyatpahvantvalleysoaps6435]

Katie, I'm a newbie to the soap-selling scene and you have been such an inspiration to me! I've learned so much from you. I love this soap and your videos and ESPECIALLY your chat at the end of the video. Fun fact--you are SO RIGHT that as a community we collectively and constantly raise the bar for each other and ourselves--it's backed by science! It's called the Zone of Proximal Development. Basically, the ZPD a psychological theory that we learn faster when we are working around/among peers at a similar skill level than we do when we are by ourselves. The warm and fuzzy sense of comminuty among soapers like you is definitely what has given me the courage to start my soap business. Thank you so much for everything you do to further our community and craft!

[@MyLifeMyWay]

I work as a paramedic and have been struggling with infertility for way too many years. A few years ago my mental health fell apart. I was watching your videos because they are just so soothing and positive and it was a way to shut my brain off for a little while. My husband suggested I try making soap as a creative outlet. I wasn't sure about it and honestly, when you're as far into that hole as I was, it's hard even getting out of bed in the morning. He went online to a local soap making store, bought all of the supplies (he's been with me watching many of these videos lol) and had it shipped to the house. When I still wasn't sure, he put on a long sleeve shirt and some gloves and insisted on helping me to get over my own fears of failure. I really did marry an amazing man. About once a month, when I need a break from the world, I make up a soap idea and go create it. I do sell the occasional bars if they turn out nice, but mostly they are just for us. Thanks for the inspiration and for the knowledge I needed to make a step towards my own mental health.

[@winterstar183]

Oh just when I don’t think you can get even more amazing you blow it out the water .....Your amazingly genuine comment and your attitude about fellow soap makers not being competition shows why so many people truly love and care about you.

Sending much love and thanks for all the positive energy and care you share with us so freely xxxx

Maybe that sounds boring but I would really like a video, however short is ends up being, about how to clean your stuff after you’ve soaped. I did my very first batch of CP soap this past week (inspired by your videos of course!) and at the end I was second guessing my every moves when it was time to clean up.

[@nnekachapman8336]

Good luck on your soap journey...and I believe That Katie said to soak everything, from the moment you're done using it, just drop it in some water. I should think hot water might help a little more. 💝

[@caitlinhanson8631]

She has said on a couple of videos that as much remaining soap batter as possible is wiped out with paper towels and then the things are hand washed or washed in a dishwasher. I've never heard her say anything about soaking them, and as someone who has made soap before that doesn't sound right...

[@butterflyminder]

Saw this soap in the VIP email and my immediate thought was, what a perfect way to round off this series. Congratulations on a really triumphant fall collection.

[@lynetteharrington1830]

I miss watching you mix the colors into the batter AND watching you pipe all of the frosting! Slow down that's what we LOVE about you Katie!! Love you, been here since the beginning!

[@janemock1486]

My family and I moved across the country earlier this year. I started making soap in April thanks to your videos. I think I watched the Royal Academy videos at least 3 times before making my first batch. I don't want to post too much information publicly, but just know that because of those videos, and your enthusiasm, you have really helped my family out a lot. I just did my second farmers market last Saturday, and did better than expected. Thanks for being such a kind person and for sharing so much.

So I ordered the orange cranberry as a gift and I wanted a soap for myself. I got the Tea and Novels before I even watched the video. I really liked the name of the soap and didn't want something too fruity or flowery. Then I watched the video and became super excited about my order. Almond oil and chai🥰 And those cute little teapots. I have since received my order and omg I LOVE this soap. I wish I had ordered another bar. It smells amazing. 😍 And my husband loves it too. Best impulse buy ever! 😄

I love watching all your videos and seeing your personality shine through!!

[@justme2059]

lol yes I do the same…”I own a small business” and for the ones who ask what I do for a small business then I tell them I make homemade products, if they continue to ask then I let them know I make soap😁 I feel exactly the same way. Anyone who is wanting to start making soap for a business or even asks how to make soap, I allow them to come over individually (I do not like crowds and don’t have patience to do videos 😂🤣) and I will have them take notes while I make one batch then I will have them make a batch using soap calc while I am there to assist but they get to do the “hands on” all by themselves, I’m just there in the event they have a question…moral support…or quick reminder of a safety issue-goggles on, lye to water ONLY, no aluminum😊. I love watching your videos because they are calming. My 6 yr old is your biggest fan though. She will rewatch your videos.

[@NekoGoblinQueen]

I currently work at a popular well known craft store and get to talk to a lot of people purchasing soap crafting supplies. I've always been open with discussing the craft with my customers and have traded contact information with them regarding shows, suppliers and just regular information. Most of my sales come from both my husband's co-workers and mine, lol. Like you, I don't l see fellow crafters as competition. Each person's technique and style is different, even when using the exact same ingredients. I look at it as inspiration and sharing ideas for a well-loved craft even though I've been making handcrafted CP soaps for almost 30 years.

[@michellecrutchfield8701]

Katie, for the Royal Academy, my biggest suggestion, (besides wishing for some tips & tricks to knowing just how MUCH batter to mix up separately for piping, cause I'm sure that's in your kit that you sell)... would be to have 1 video going over fragrance oils... which ones would more than likely work best for starting out, as a new soaper gets a feel for their recipe. Which ones would speed up or slow down trace. Oh my gosh, that would be SUCH a helpful video! Because lets face it, Fragrance Oil, it's the key factor that can determine if the soaping session will be an absolute nightmare, or a disaster! (Besides making sure your lye water is made correctly! ;) LOL! And color morphs. What ALL can cause the morphs?! Vanillin(sp?) isn't the only thing, apparently! (UGS!) Because of you Katie, I started my own soaping business, and this here would have been SO, so, SOOoo wonderful to have watched you go over! And probably saved me a lot of headaches this past year! ;) Thx for all you do Katie! Much love & appreciation for all you do!

everytime i see a white frosting soap with little black dots in the frosting i always think DRAGONFRUIT. would love to see a dragonfruit themed, or many other fruit-themed soaps!

I have been subbed to you for YEARS and was never able to get any of your soaps because they were always sold out. I finally was able to get one! I can’t wait for it!

Katie Girl!! Keep Doing What you are doing and Being who you are! You are the Reason I started learning how to make soap When You First Started Making Videos! Now I have a shop!
