My First Attempt. I Have Notes.

It took me five minutes to pick up the soap I dropped in the shower, so I hope I never commit a felony.

But it was a lovely soap. Well, lovely-ish. Above is my very first batch of homemade soap. I wanted to capture my dog’s likeness in the top bar, so I carved Ricky’s bust out of clay and created a silicone mold. It needs more definition. I can do better.

The other two bars came from a pre-fab mold. Also eh. I’m going to try a glycerine mix next time, which I think will help. The good news is, with everything I try, I never give up. Even if I make mistakes along the way, I’d rather fail than regret.
