Garden Succulent - Soap Piping + Plant Embeds Handmade Soap - How It's Made - Cold Process!

Garden Succulent Cold Process Soap with Floral Embeds and Piped Leaves! This is for the current month's challenge focusing on soap tops. We can either pick textures or piping. I of course tried both, but this one would be geared toward the piped tops category. This was one of my attempts with piping. I am an absolute novice when it comes to piping! I had made these succulents with leftover soap from the Lush Succulent soap I made a few months ago. And this was a perfect opportunity to use them! I did a basic pour with the main part of the loaf and set the embeds once the top was set up enough to support them. The next day, I piped the larger leaves and then did the smaller leaves the day after that. A few big things I learned - it took forever for my soap batter for piping to set up! Next time, I will start that batter first thing in the morning. The second thing was that I need to make a much smaller batch for the piping. In ended up making a lot of extra leaves to use in a later batch of soap. At the end of the day, I was super pleased with how the leaves turned out! I had tried to do one flower a few days prior with some other test piping batter, but it was too fluid and too late at night to wait. But, definitely something I'll try again in the future! I used Green Tea from Essential Depot and Lush Succulent plus Salty Mariner from Brambleberry. My colors came from Wholesale Supplies Plus, Brambleberry, and Nurture.
