The Clash of Soaping Techniques

If only I could soap all day and everyday I would be one happy person.  I don't know about you but I tend to daydream about making soap while working my day job.  I thought about this soap for days and finally made the time to make it yesterday.  
I am always trying to push the boundaries of my soaping skills.  This goat milk soap is a combination of several soaping techniques that I have learned.  I used five colors and the techniques I used include the ITP swirl(in the pot), Mantra Swirl, Hanger Swirl and a technique called Synergy that I found on the Soaping 101 Channel on You Tube.  I also used a picture for inspiration from the fragrance Oil I used...Eucalyptus Spearmint. 
Here is the result of all that daydreaming.....

  3. I am totally with you in wishing I could soap all day and daydreaming about soap while at work! :-p The colors of your soap does convey its name. I hope to have the courage to do a mantra soon. Thank you for the inspiration. :-)

  5. Wow! This is exquisite!
    I, too, dream about soap - both when I'm sleeping and during my day job. I have come up with so many ideas - I need to write them down, as I wake up and forget a lot of them.
    I saw this technique on Soaping 101 and thought about adding the in the pot swirl, but not the mantra - great idea! Wonderful Colors! I can almost smell it from here.
    Thank you for the great video!
