I just love how you make and cut your soap. I know this is an older video, but...but...BUT NOTHING!!! I love your work, I love your knowledge, you are just a wonderful person and soap maker!!! Thank you so much for your content.

[@TreeMarieSoapworks]

Thank you so, so much! 😭💖💕🥰

[@Rollandchill]

Oh no Teri. You took a major departure from your typical soap making style on this video. Thrice you "rounded up" your numbers while on the soap calculator web site. You bypassed using your palette board and palette knife to mix your color; my favorite thing to watch you do. Nor did you slant that ruler. Then to my absolute shock, you estimated how much soap batter you initially poured into your soap mold. Of course I am just "ribbing you". lol :) Indeed it was refreshing to see you take such bold risks. I get so tickled and so inspired when I watch you make soap. You are so smart and talented. You are an artist. Thank you for sharing!!!

[@TreeMarieSoapworks]

Oh, Victor, you caught me! Lol! I know it was out of the ordinary for me. 😁 🤣

[@bethaddis4377]

Do you feel like a total rebel now????

[@Almo0nd]

As someone who has tried to calculate the amount of batter I'd need with an embedded soap and calculating based solely on the weight of the embed and getting the incorrect amount, I am so grateful to you for demonstrating your method!

[@Bee_Cathy]

Thank you for sharing in detail on how you reconfigure a new recipe. It is very helpful to a new soaper.

[@Bmoore126]

I love how precise you are!! Beautiful character trait. Also this is BY FAR the most informative video on making soap I've ever seen (and I've watched A LOT of videos). It's exactly what I needed. Thank you for sharing.

[@kendo2377]

Math class. 😛 I like that you're meticulous with your batches. I make botanical soaps with herbs, fruits, and vegetables I grow myself. Every tea, oil infusion and powder I make is measured and catalogued for consistency. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.

[@TreeMarieSoapworks]

Sounds wonderful! Thank you!🌿💕

[@cheryl739]

I have found when I want to save either soap dough or a certain kind of soap for my confetti soap, I use my vaccuum sealer to save them. I don't waste since I can make the bags any size. I have used soap up to 8 months with no problems. The soap was still soft enough for my use. Thanks for the calculating tip. ☺

[@TreeMarieSoapworks]

Great idea, Cheryl!

[@asmroops5487]

Шикарное мыло,глаза,душа радуется на такую красоту ,спасибо вам♥️♥️♥️👌

[@tigerlilley]

Super appreciate the maths and calculator tutorials, have learnt so much and it's great having a video to come back to if I get stuck. Also vote for C

[@TreeMarieSoapworks]

Thank you so much!

[@EnlightenedFlamingo]

I vote for A! I love how precise & informative you are. I may never make soap, but I still enjoy learning new things. I love this one!

[@TreeMarieSoapworks]

Thanks so much! 😊

[@TheOriginalOrkdoop]

I haven't watched the whole video yet. But from the thumbnail, this is the best confetti soap I've ever seen. Excited to watch later

[@TreeMarieSoapworks]

Aww...thank you so much!

[@tattoomoon-tmsulsona7513]

B or D would be awesome! your soap designs are always a joy to watch.

[@TreeMarieSoapworks]

Thanks so much! D will be next! 😊

[@debbiemuncy2272]

Omg. I'd love to learn this! I love this style of art..

[@Fullinwoolens]

Such a beautiful soap! How very gracious you are to share your wisdom and techniques with us ❤️

[@TreeMarieSoapworks]

Thank you, Cheryl! 😊

[@DavidVChristopher]

Thanks so much. I always find it funny when other soapers talk about how precise you must be when making soap. However by the end of the video they say “just eyeball it” or “that’s good enough”. But you are consistent in not only being precise you show how you get there. 👍

[@TreeMarieSoapworks]

Yeah, the eyeballing kind of makes me cringe. Thank you, David!

[@CraftySoapGirl]

Thank you for the extra tutorial on recalculating with soap scraps. This was very helpful 😍

[@TreeMarieSoapworks]

Glad it was helpful, Tara!

[@arwabukhari2437]

As usual beautiful soaps and informative video. My choice is A

[@jacquelinewatson8383]

All the options are beautiful, but I vote D, it is so very unique.

[@TreeMarieSoapworks]

Thank you! D is the winner!

[@savonchezhelene4060]

Wonderful Teri! Are you sure you're not a scientist? 🤓Just kidding! I'm happy to see you are teaching your ; nothing wrong with being precise ! Thank you for sharing !

[@TreeMarieSoapworks]

Lol. I like improving upon what I have learned. So it helps to be accurate. I know you see where I am coming from. 😊👍

[@JenSpice]

I really like the look of the dark colour with the sprinkle of confetti embedded inside. Great design Terry ❤️Jen

[@JenSpice]

After watching you I really need to make a confetti soap, LOL. So fun! Reaching for the pumpkin bars to rebatch...

[@TreeMarieSoapworks]

Perfect, Jen! I hope it turned out great!

[@yellowrosehomemadesoaps]

It's very difficult to say which design is good as for me personally I like all the designs you make, even if it is repeated or different one. 😀 Very very soothing to hear your voice and i enjoy every bit of your video. 😘😍 One request to you that I really would like to see how you do wrapping of your soaps and how you do package of your orders. Thank you.

[@TreeMarieSoapworks]

Thank you so much, I will keep that in mind. 😊

[@ramareddy4541]

A. Your soaps and videos are amazing! I absolutely love them all! Thank you so very much!!!

[@TreeMarieSoapworks]

Thank you so much, Rama! 😊💕

[@ofthebeanvariety]

Soaps turned out beautiful. I voted D up in the corner poll. My second pick is A.

[@JustAnotherBuckyLover]

D would be my first choice, then A,, then B and C, I think. Wonderful video and a nice difference in the confetti soap style - I've only really seen people used grated soap and that tends to end up with the embedded soap colours looking a little muddied and unclear because of the relatively thin pieces... plus the fact that you're measuring everything properly and accurately makes my heart so happy. Like you say, how are you meant to try and replicate a result (or tweak it effectively) if you don't know exactly what you did to create it in the first place? Thank you, as always, for sharing so many of your methods and techniques. 💓

[@TreeMarieSoapworks]

I am so glad accuracy makes your heart happy! You are right. You need to have a starting point for next time. You're very welcome! 💖

[@thandiwolfe813]

I would really like to see you make D. I am learning so much from your channel!

[@runnerchicki1576]

I love the look of the confetti in a black soap. Thank you for your detailed tutorial on how to recalculate the batch - that was extremely helpful!

[@TreeMarieSoapworks]

Thank you so much!

[@suec.5840]

I love your style. I'd like to see you make A, B, C, and D in no particular order! :)

[@TreeMarieSoapworks]

Lol, perfect!

[@sabidy]

Style A is my favorite ❤️ thank you for sharing your beautiful soap.

[@dida079]

D looks so unique and interesting so D is my choice ❤️👍

[@carolcox3397]

This is gorgeous! Love it. Did I miss how to do the colour percentage calculation?

[@tjadopt4077]

I love your videos- especially the tips and tricks at the end. I want to see you make all the choices. I vote a b c and d! Thanks!

[@TreeMarieSoapworks]

I will be posting D, the Pull Through Technique soon, but I plan on making a video for all of them eventually.

[@yanais88]

You have just the sweetest voice! These vids truly help me calm my anxieties and really make me feel like i need to start making some soap!! 😂😙

[@TreeMarieSoapworks]

Aww...thank you so much! 💕

[@yanais88]

@@TreeMarieSoapworks Thank YOU!! 💕💕

[@Nigulable]

Thanks for the video. Planning on doing my first confetti soap and wondering if it is a problem during cutting or elsewhere to use older soap pieces? Pieces of cured (4-6 weeks) soap? Thanks in advance!

[@deniseschillinger8090]

C please, your videos are all so informative. I love watching them!

[@TreeMarieSoapworks]

Thank you, Denise!

hello,it seemed that the inbeds were the full length of the mold but when you cut it they were about 1.3rd which was perfect.thank you

[@TreeMarieSoapworks]

Glad it helped! Enjoy! ❣

[@lornalammers6824]

I appreciate your "Things I Would Do Different" portion of the video, it's very interesting :) I vote D

You are so helpful! I just love watching and learning more the fun way. Thank you so much 🦋

[@TreeMarieSoapworks]

Thank you so much, Yvonne! 🐛🦋✨

[@gwen525600]

Oh my gosh, my head is spinning from the math! You are very good at figuring this out. I'll have to watch this a few times to fully understand. Thanks for explaining this. I'm curious to know if the confetti soap was unscented or was the scent complimentary to the fragrance in the new soap? Thanks!

[@TreeMarieSoapworks]

There is a way of setting up a proportion to skip one step, but this way made sense to me. They are both the same scent, but they don't have to be. I have a bar of it sitting right here beside me. It's so pretty. 😊💕

[@ddsisson]

I just recently came across your channel. I noticed in this video you said you’re from Indiana....ME TOO!! 👏🏻👏🏻

[@HelenOlaniyan]

Wow!!!!👍👍👍👍 that's beautiful

[@dida079]

Loving this one

[@donnalh3030]

I understand adding the coconut carbon powder to the oils before adding your lye but is there an advantage to adding your fragrance to the oils rather than to the batter? Thanks for this video; such a fun looking soap!

[@joannelagdameo4834]

Love this video, Terry!!! I vote for C.

[@TreeMarieSoapworks]

Thank you so much, Joanne!

[@rosemoon3190]

Great video! Do you have instructions on making the wooden box for the silicone mold?

[@janellepeck2577]

Love the confetti against the black. It looks like sea shells.

[@TreeMarieSoapworks]

I thought so too, Janelle. They seem to have an iridescent quality like shells do.

[@chandicem9122]

I would like C and D. Such a great video. I always learn something new watching your videos!😊❤❤ The confetti soaps are so pretty!

[@erin.olliart]

Hi Teri! Nice soap. I vote A then D. 😃 they are both pretty! Also is that the 10in mold from BB? I’m asking to find out if you made the wood box to go around it ?

[@TreeMarieSoapworks]

Thank you, Erin! Yes, It is the 10" mold from BB. We made the wooden frame to go around it. 👍

[@tbythesea1]

How about B or D? I like them both!!

[@guardianminifarm8005]

I would love to see B made; that looks lovely.

[@TreeMarieSoapworks]

Thank you so much. I will eventually be making all of them. 😊

[@tammypowell1423]

Love all the info! I would like to see all 4 choices, but B looks like fun if I had to pick just one.

[@TreeMarieSoapworks]

Thank you, Tammy! I will eventually be making them all, so don't worry!

[@debbieescobar6267]

I vote for D. Also, Teri, where did you find the tiny squeeze bottles you use to top off oils? My 2oz ones from Amazon have a larger opening. Thanx! I learned so many new things from this video!

[@jessabeebees956]

Thank you! So helpful

[@TreeMarieSoapworks]

You're so welcome!

[@kerendn]

What do you mean when you say you turn the oven off and leave the light on? When the light is on, does the oven still generate heat? And if so, at what temperature? My oven has a timer, a mode selector (bake, turbo, grill, etc) and a temperature selector, so I don't understand how to apply your method in my oven. Thank you 😊

[@TreeMarieSoapworks]

Does your oven have an incandescent light bulb in it? Those generate a little heat. I just preheat the oven a little and turn it off, and the light keeps it warm. I am just trying to nudge it through gel to avoid partial gel. 😊

[@kerendn]

@@TreeMarieSoapworks oh! One of the modes (grill, bake, turbo, etc) has a light bulb icon. I never noticed it before! Thank you for taking the time to explain it to me :-)

[@TreeMarieSoapworks]

Yeah, that is a crazy rule. You have to pay? Insane!

[@elanehomestudio-laineyneal7499]

Tree Marie Soapworks I know £180 for 6 soaps to be passed and then you can’t change the recipe at all. Plus we can’t make anything that resembles food or drink. It’s mad.

[@Megan200317]

Watching you mix your colorants with your palette knife is my favorite thing about your videos. 😊 I wish I was able to be more technical and exact with my soap making as you are. My method is more, close my eyes while I sniff my FO and attempt what comes to mind immediately before making.

[@Megan200317]

Your explanation makes so much sense.

Hi Teri, I am loving my fig, & peppermint, your soaps look and smell divine. Katherine My Choice is "C" TY
