A fail and a save…


Sigh….I had such great expectations for this soap! It was supposed to be a layered hot process milk, oatmeal and honey soap. It smelled soooo good as I was pouring it, but as soon as I cut into it I could see there was a problem:





It looks just like bacon :(


Lol!
















Hmmmm, what to do with a soap that smells like toasty oats and honey and looks like bacon!? After mulling it over for a couple of days, I decided to chunk it up and add it into some melt and pour base: 






Much better :)














It’s so important to document the failures as much as the successes. Sometimes the best lessons are learned by our mistakes!

  2. I made a soap once that looked like a hunk of blue cheese. I think bacon's better.
