I'm getting Kelsei's 42 bar mold!!! It's an early anniversary gift. DH said I could order it so I can soap my butt off to ready in time for the festival. He also told me to buy any soap supplies that I need!!!!!

How exciting! That's a big mold! Congrats on the mold AND the anniversity. Sounds like you have a keeper

I did lavender patchouli, orange patchouli, and eucalyptus, lavender, peppermint, rosemary blend last night. I'll post pictures later. I was trying something new. For the last blend, I had the idea of splitting the batch in half, coloring one half with liquid chlorophyll, other half natural and then instead of doing a swirl in the pot, I was going to pour the uncolored part back into the pot, but only in one spot so that it would look like the soap was one half white and one half green and then I was going to pour into the mold. Theory was the bars would be white on one side, green on the other and swirled in the middle. I just didn't take enough soap out so there was a lot more green then white, but I am still pleased with the way they turned out. I got some really neat shapes.​

I ordered some scents from the scent works. I'm still waiting for my tracking number. I ordered them over the weekend so maybe they just did not get to my order yet. I ordered sweet pumpkin, vanilla sandelwood, lemon verbena,cucumber lettuce,oatmeal milk and honey, black raspberry creme and english lavender. I ran out of scents and can't wait to get soaping again. I will be ordering my candycorn and a few others once I get paid on friday from alabaster scents.

Scent Works Black Raspberry Cream is the best ever! My best seller.

Let me know what you think of their OMH and pumkin.

Any idea how I could use real pumpkin in soap?

Puree it up like you did the cuks and add it in! Or add it to only half your batch and do a swirl or layer.
