Holly I was thinking about you today. I knew you were needing a small respite and it was nice to see a vid from you today! You are so right, you have to take care of you, it's paramount. We all need that down time to re group and re charge. Do take care 🙂
I love how you talk so naturally whilst making your soaps, it’s like we’re all together in the room and the does look beautiful Holly, I hope your ok and feel rejuvenated. All the best for the year ahead, stay safe.
Beautiful per usual Holly! I'm so happy to see you back to soaping and up loading all your fantastic videos. I hope you get to feeling better soon! God Bless you 10 fold!
We really missed you Holly but please take care of yourself. I love Lavender it’s my favourite EO of all it’s beautiful mixed with lemon 🍋 such a pretty soap. Thanks Holly so glad to see you back. 💐💕😊
Hey! Holly I was so glad to see a new soap vlog. I was so overwhelmed I fell asleep. I can't believe MYSELF!! Apologies. I will watch u now from the start. Lovely to see you. Thanks 💜
I love your wispy swirls! My favorite that I make is pink and green in a stark white and very mildly scented with sweetpea. I know it's an old school fragrance but I still love it!
Nice to have you back Holly...It's beautiful as always..I'm sorry your back and neck are bothering you. Take care of yourself. I will say prayers for you. Be well. 😊❤👍
I hope you and your family are doing well. I really missed you and your videos; they just make me so happy. I am glad you are back if you are back, lol .
I love lavender and lemon too, you should try lavender and sweet orange essential oils. That is my absolute favorite 😍 Thank you for the awesome videos Holly💖
Thank you Vinessa. I did actually prefer the orange over the lemon when giving it the old sniffaroo. I think I was wanting to save my orange eo for another project. It's definitely going to be on the to-do list.
So happy to see you back, I love this soap particularly those round swirlies, they remind me of the patterns you get on some of the crystals like blue lace agate, so very pretty, you take it easy we don't want you gone forever. 🥰
Thank you Dawna. It's been a tough few months with some serious stressors. Thankfully nothing health or relationship related so we will survive it and move on.
Love watching your soap making. It's very soothing. From watching you, I am confident that I can move on from MP and try CP. I love making it for myself and I have a few friends that purchase. Thank you for the inspiration.💖
Welcome back! So great to see you :) I think I have now watched everything you've made! wow, I sound like a stalker! I'm not really, I'm just new to the soap world and planning my own foray into it. I love your enthusiasm, sorry if I've said that before, but it's not something we do much here in the UK. Your joy in what you are doing is evident and I love it! That purple is gorgeous, and definitely works for lavender scent. The swirls are epic, some look like the rings you get in tree trunks! Thank you for sharing with us, I'm excited to be on this train with you :)
The forgetting thing is so odd. I went and uploaded some old candle videos was amazed at some of the stuff I forgot that I used to say all the time! Glad you are back, my husband and I enjoy your videos a lot! Soap looks great!
Hi Holly, I am binge watching your videos from this one moving forward. I was so busy that I didn't have much time for YT. This is gonna be a treat. Sending you love and God's blessings from Pretoria, South Africa 🇿🇦 🌻. May we all have a blessed 2022😊🥰
I’m just now starting cold processing after using melt and pour for so long and honestly this is the first video that I came across that wasn’t some “gawdy” scent or glitter infused 😌 I like lavender and I love mica powders
Oh yayyy!! So glad to see you back Holly!! I was actually looking for you on youtube last week!! 😉 Hope you're OK and I send best wishes for the new year!! I know only too well about back pain. I broke my spine a number of years ago so I have to be very careful too. Take care of yourself first! 👍 Love your Lavender Lemon soap!! 💞
I had a terrible fall on the ice one morning after freezing rain a number of years ago. I have to be very careful and have limited activities but I keep going. 👍
Welcome back! A lovely pour, thanks you so much. If it holds up well, would you mind sharing a link also to the liner paper used for your wood mold please? Thanks kindly.
Making soap is really a strain on some of our body parts. May I suggest; get some anti-fatigue mats for your soaping and packaging area to stand on. Be sure to get yourself some massages in between. Lovely soap bars.
Hi Holly! Nice soap! I too am a newly converted lavender lover. Never tried the lavender/lemon e.o. combination - I'll have to give it a go. Can I ask where you got your silicone popsicle sticks? Thank you - and I hope you have a great new year!
Hey Holly! Just dropping by to say hello. Beautiful soap as usual. I hope all is well in the Ozarks. Off topic question: Do you watch Ozarks on Netflix?
Thank you. I have not watched that show. My husband watched and then informed me that I would not enjoy it. Haha! He screens shows because he knows I am a sensitive sally. I ask him all the time "Would I like it?" Usually, he says "nooooo". 😂
@@moriversoap 😂 Well, I would definitely trust your husband then. I think it's a good show. Tourism has actually increased at the Lake of the Ozarks since the series started in 2017 so the show definitely put the Ozarks on the map.
Really like the colors. Do you find a lot of people to be allergic to shea butter in soap? What % of cocoa butter do you use in your recipe? I find your soap to be very moisturizing.
Thank you. I rarely use shea butter because I have some sensitivities myself. I use cocoa butter at different ranges for my different recipes. Typically between 10-15%.
I found your videos today, and I am in love (I am binge watching all of them). If I were to ever try making cold pressed soap, can I substitute the goat milk for coconut milk or other vegan options?
I noticed you line your molds with paper, do you not like silicone lined molds or because your molds are different sizes then the silicone liners come?
My husband builds the wooden molds for me. These all existed long before anyone started making silicone liners/wood molds to sell to the public. To replace them (and not even with the size I want) would be close to $2000. Whereas a roll of freezer paper for $30 will last me two years. I wouldn't want to even attempt to make silicone liners as I know it wouldn't be precise enough.
Holly you can't be gone for so long we missed you and your videos.....Wishing you a successful 2022.
Hi Holly!….
It’s so Lovely to see you back, I’ve missed you loads beautiful lady!

I really like seeing you talk to us at the start, makes you more than just a disembodied voice and a relatable person :)
Nice to have you back, Holly. I was missing your videos.
Beautiful per usual Holly! I'm so happy to see you back to soaping and up loading all your fantastic videos. I hope you get to feeling better soon! God Bless you 10 fold!

So happy to see you back, I love this soap particularly those round swirlies, they remind me of the patterns you get on some of the crystals like blue lace agate, so very pretty, you take it easy we don't want you gone forever. 🥰
I think that I was thinking about agate too. Thank you Charmain.
Love watching you make soap!

Glad to see you...love how you explain everything!!!
This soap looks absolutely delightful
Hi Holly, it's so nice to see you again!! Loving the soap this sounds like a fragrance I'd love 💕
Welcome back! I made soap the other week and I felt like a true beginner all over again!
Welcome back, I was beginning to wonder if you had been unwell. Great to see you're well. I've missed your videos.
Thank you Dawna. It's been a tough few months with some serious stressors. Thankfully nothing health or relationship related so we will survive it and move on.
Happy New Year, glad to see you back 🛁🧼🛀
Yes, I agree, we all must spend more slow time, with our family! Thank you for the video
Lovely to see you back. I was beginning to worry. Beautiful soap as usual. Thank you for sharing x
Thank you Alison. Things have been hard the last many months. It's not health related or anything. I may be able to make a video about it someday.
Love watching your soap making. It's very soothing. From watching you, I am confident that I can move on from MP and try CP. I love making it for myself and I have a few friends that purchase. Thank you for the inspiration.💖
You crack me up. I need to do this one for my daughter who graduated from LSU. Very beautiful.
That would be a great idea!
So good to see you back! I love that your tiny batches are the same as my huge batches lol
I love those colours together
Beautiful soap as always Holly, I like it a lot.

Another beautiful soap! I might be ready for the next launch!
I love that color combination it always reminds me of lavender gelato. Have a great weekend Ms. Holly!

Thank you Donna!
I think it turned out gorgeous!😍 I wish I could smell it. 😃 I bet it smell beautiful with that blend.
Thank you Shannon! It was quite lovely.
Welcome back! A lovely pour, thanks you so much. If it holds up well, would you mind sharing a link also to the liner paper used for your wood mold please? Thanks kindly.
Thank you. The paper does alright but I do prefer the white freezer paper. I believe the brown freezer paper was from webstaurantstore.com.
Hope you are feeling better, I really enjoy your wonderful videos :)
💖wow, enjoyed your video very much! I’d like your recipe!😃
I love the purple with the yellow. It's beautiful. You have inspired me to try this method to create the swirl effect.
Thank you!
Very amazing so beautiful
Welcome back.
It looks amazing, like always
Very pretty!!!
Missed you! I hope you got some good rest. Love the colors. Can’t wait for your first release. Did you get a new puppy?
Thank you. We did not end up getting that puppy.
Nice to see you back, question please, how thick do your cut your soaps ?
Thank you. I cut at 1.25 inches.
Would love to try this soap!
What kind of paper do you use to line your wooden molds? Tanks btw what a beautyful soaps🥰
Thank you. I use unbleached freezer paper.
Looking nice and i am loving it.
Thank you! This was a great batch!
I think the colors are perfect
Thank you Nikki!
Nice colors in that, despite some gray.
What size are your finished bars? You mention 1.25 inches thick.
Thank you. They are cut at 3.25-3.5 x 2.5 x 1.25.
Beautiful
Making soap is really a strain on some of our body parts. May I suggest; get some anti-fatigue mats for your soaping and packaging area to stand on. Be sure to get yourself some massages in between. Lovely soap bars.
Thank you. I definitely need to look into some.
@@moriversoap oh yes indeed. Crocs has never failed me yet either.
Hi Holly! Nice soap!
I too am a newly converted lavender lover. Never tried the lavender/lemon e.o. combination - I'll have to give it a go.
Can I ask where you got your silicone popsicle sticks?
Thank you - and I hope you have a great new year!
Thank you Cathy. I got them from Amazon.
This looks amazing!!!
Thank you!
Hey Holly! Just dropping by to say hello. Beautiful soap as usual. I hope all is well in the Ozarks.
Off topic question: Do you watch Ozarks on Netflix?

Thank you! I am so glad you enjoy the videos! You can certainly use other milks in your soaps.
Do you use equal parts lavender and lemon eo? About what percentage is your eo blend if you don’t mind me asking?
I am finally in front of my notes so that I can answer your question. I used 56% Lavender and 44% Lemon.
@@moriversoap that sounds delicious!
@@moriversoap thank you so much for your reply! You make the most beautiful soaps!
sorry you're having back and neck issues! :C The soap came out beautifully!
Where did you buy your soap bucket
So very pretty
