Take your soapmaking design to the next level! This hands on lab is all about using color and swirling! I’ll demo three advanced soap designs including a nonpareil swirl, a peacock swirl and hearts and flowers. We’ll talk about how to create a slow moving recipe and how oils, water, heat and additives can affect trace.
Then you’ll get to make your own designed soap!
