March 2018 | Abalone and Sea Real Estate | KCK Soapery

Custom-made soap for a friend who is also a real estate agent here in Midland, Michigan.

She loves the Abalone and Sea fragrance and this is what I came up for her.  I hope she and her clients will like them.  She likes to incorporate the seashells into the soap and I decided to add a small Michigan state design onto the soap as well.

I used my favorite recipe which includes coconut oil, olive oil, rice bran oil, palm oil, mango butter and castor oil.  Fragrance is described as a fresh ocean scent with notes of day lilies, sea spray, watery florals and musk.

Michigan state and the seashells were made using a melt and pour soap base.

Poured white soap batter as base and poured a green and a blue line in the middle.

Covered the lines with white and repeat.

Drizzled the leftover green and blue on top on the white.

Made a swirl using chopstick.

Added the toppings made.

Out of the mold and cut.

Can't wait to show you the second batch I made for my real estate friend!

February 2018 | Mother's Love | KCK Soapery

Scented with a blend of peonies, hyacinth, day lilies, apple blossoms, and soft bergamot.  I love the swirl on this batch but the camera did not do justice to it.

Ingredients are my usual Coconut oil, Olive oil, Rice Bran oil, Palm oil, Mango butter, and Castor oil.

Colored with titanium dioxide for white and red mica. I alternately poured red and white in the middle of the mold and did a bit of hanger swirl.

Covered with white after the hanger swirl and drizzled the leftover red batter on top.

Swirled the top with chopstick.

Out of the mold.

I am quite happy with the hanger and chopstick swirl in this batch.  

Enjoy!

November 2017 | Abalone and Sea | KCK Soapery

This was my daughter's color vision.  Her vision was of galaxy and it's a combination of blue, purple and white.

Blue and purple mica and titanium dioxide for white. Scented with Abalone and Sea described as a fresh ocean scent with notes of days lily, sea spray, watery florals, and musk.

Same favorite recipe which includes the following ingredients: Coconut oil, olive oil, rice bran oil, mango butter, palm oil and castor oil.

Poured the white base.

Poured a middle line of purple.

Alternate blue and purple soap batter.

Covered the swirls with white.

Drizzled purple on top of white.

Blue leftover soap batter.

Made a swirl with chopstick.

We were a little worried since the blue seems to overpower the purple.

Off the mold.  The purple is not as prominent but still visible.

Off the mold.

They turned out pretty good!
