I am a designer and one of the first things I was taught is that odd numbers are far more interesting to the eye than even numbers. I always design in 3’s, 5’s and 7’s.
I love how you experiment with techniques and show us the results, it's great because it really makes you think about soap and how it behaves and reacts
Oh my gosh, this episode was so validating. I've been soap making for about two years now, and I recently started trying to build a recipe from scratch. After researching a TON of oils and fatty acid properties, I decided on Olive, Coconut, Palm (sustainable of course), Castor, Avocado, and, you guessed it, Cocoa Butter! As you were adding your oils I was like, oh my gosh, I'm on the right track! My percentages are slightly different because I have really dry skin in the winter, so I like a bit more conditioning, but this made me really happy seeing a professional soap maker choose the same oils!
Good to hear! If you like that formula, try the Honey Video recipe. That recipe is my favorite right now! It has an abundant creamy lather. ua-cam.com/video/eGA3OmG7c3Y/v-deo.html
I want to try the teardrop technique, but I did not dare yet. I've been watching your video every day before bedtime for three weeks. I appreciate you taking the time to share these videos and share them for free. I think I should make the right teardrop before the technique in this video, but these leaves were great too. Thank you so much.
Thank you Emily! You can use that trick to divide anything into equal parts. If something is 6.375 inches and you want to divide it into 3 equal parts, use centimeters (because they are smaller increments), pick a number that is divisible by 3 that is just a bit bigger than 6.375 inches. If it is 24 cm, slant the ruler and divide by 3 and mark every 8 cm.
@@TreeMarieSoapworks hahahhaa my eyes glazed over and I thought "magical math mumbo jumbo" then I watch the beauty happening and think "ahhhh artistry" LOLOLOL I have a lot of respect for artists who choose a medium that requires weights, measurements, temperature, and timing. I know that so many artists are learning from you. TFS
Oh my gosh. The first batch was pretty but the second batch, STUNNING!! 😍😍 I love that top and the swirl is beautiful!! Love the color combo too. 😍 much love to you!
After watching this video I actually attempted to make this on your Facebook page I do apologize for my appearance it was early in the morning and the kids were homeschooling it didn’t come out as beautiful as yours however I have to say considering I just watched a quick tutorial had I remembered which way to turn my hanger it probably would’ve come out almost as good as yours thank you so much for continuously teaching me wonderful things and I love how you work so meticulously
@@TreeMarieSoapworks Thanks for the inspiration. I have just made a soap using this pattern. It didn't workout quite how I had expected as my fragrance discoloured my mixture but love the design in general. I have made a video of this that I am just uploading now on my other channel...Mayne Street Soap
Exceptional, professional educational teaching soap making video. Video visuals were extraordinary. Voice explanations, tips and tricks were very helpful. Wonderfully well done. Inspirational. Mucho Gracias
i love your videos. You have such a nice speaking voice. Keep them coming. I am a beginner, and only do melt and pour right now. I like to watch to get ideas that I might be able to do. Thank you so much.
Thoroughly enjoyed this video, as well as all the others you've made. This feather technique is achieved differently than I had imagined. Can't wait to try it and hope to tune in to your tutorial on the soap challenge. Keep the videos going please.
I loved this video and I agree with you about the odd numbers, I was actually counting them before you said it lol. I would try 5 to 7 thin layers for the thinner individual feather type, anyway you decide I thought this was beautifully constructed.
You did a wonderful job on those. I really like the simple black and white. Very elegant. I loved the step by step that you took us through as well. Thank you for sharing.
@@TreeMarieSoapworks Did I ask you if you would be interested in doing a huge You Tube Collaboration yet? If you have any interest, please let me know, its super fun and there are SO many creators that have joined in. You can contact me at soapsforlove@gmail.com I really hope that you do.
@@TreeMarieSoapworks A fall collab. Everyone is going to be making soap for the fall anyway so I thought it would be appropriate. No money involved, just make a video like you normally would with a few little things that everyone has to do to make it a collaboration. It wouldn't be due until Sept 1st. SO there is plenty of time. I can go more into detail in an email though. If not, there will be another one after this one. Keep it in mind.
For the designs on the top of the soaps; I love them both equally for different reasons. The more complicated pattern looks great with this technique, but the simpler hearts would look better on more geometric-sorta patterned soaps. However, they both look amazing anyway, so do what you think! Love the way they turned out, awesome work..!
I am a real newbie in this soaping business (have actually only made 4 batches, and got the bug!) I love your channel because every time you show us another creative technique. Thank you very much for sharing your knowledge. I think this feather/leaves design is just lovely and I do like both tops, I would just make more of the little hearts if I was making that particular design (I know you run out of batter) Regards
Wonderful you're such a talented soapmaker thanks for sharing how you made it with us I love it ❤️👍🏻 I voted for the more complicated hearts but actually I really love both of them 😁
I’m going to try this technique with pound cake, using chocolate for the colored part! I think that would be beautiful! Hope it turns out like your beautiful soap!
Nice idea of the pouring tool, great minds think alike! I made something similar out of polymer clay, but I have not gotten to use it yet, nice contrasting colors!
You did a wonderful job on this design, I have tried it myself about a year ago and it didn't turn out nearly as well. I like your idea of putting the fat straw on the hanger. You have inspired me to try it again, but I think I will alternate the colors (white, green, white, blue, white, gold.etc). Look forward to your tutorial next month on the Soap Challenge.
That little trick with tilting the ruler to easily make perfectly equal slices of an unknown length slab is brilliant. I would have been screwing around with a calculator trying to add 61/64ths of an inch
I really look forward to your videos. You're a great teacher! This method is way, waaaay above my skill level, but hopefully someday I'll feel confident enough to give it a try. Thank you so much for these excellent videos!
Hi! :D I know, creators always wonder how people got to their videos. So here it goes: I watched Sophia Nygaard's newest video. And at the end of that video was a Royalty Soaps reaction video to viral soap hacks (Big warning against using cinnamon in soap!). I then fell down a rabbit hole of her videos *guilty face*. And now I'm here! Also, I saw your profile picture, and it reminded me so much of Royal Copenhagen's porcelain (especially their 'mega'), that I just had to find the video of how you made those. That this is the exact video in which you thank Katie for her shout-out, just ties the whole thing together xD Big thumbs up to yt creators who take their description box seriously!

That second bar was just pure perfection. So beautiful 💜
Beautiful! Those are so nice and the black and white are just classic.
2nd batch is the WINNER ♡
Thank you so much! 💝
Love them both! And the music is beautiful!

It's funny I found katie through you and then she did a video mentioning so so full circle soap joy! you both have me hooked
So exciting! 💖✨
It's the same for me. :)
Some! Haha
Same here too🙋🏻♀️
Oh my gosh. The first batch was pretty but the second batch, STUNNING!! 😍😍 I love that top and the swirl is beautiful!! Love the color combo too. 😍 much love to you!
Odd numbers always look better, it's a big rule in the interior design world ♥️
Thank you, Serel!
You are an amazing artist! All these soaps you've made with different design looks amazing! ❤️
beautiful both batches but I like more the second one because the top looks very elegant the design and the inside swirl is perfect...really nice...

Watching you mix the colorants with oil on the glass is one of the most soothing sights I've seen lately. Please keep up the great soap!
Aww...thank you so much Maegan! 🎨💕
I LOVE the black swirl! So elegant.
Thank you! 💕
I love that second decorative top! They're both so beautiful. Thank you for sharing your videos. God bless you! 🙏
Your techniques are so clean, and you definitely know what you're doing!
The second batch design results reminds me of a Hannukah menorah. Beautiful!
So beautiful. They both look amazing and so delicate.
Thank you so much! 🌿💕

Thank you so much Irene! I like whimsical too! I hope to make some more whimsical leaves! 🌿💕
I actually came here from royalty soaps, it was a great decision love both the channels
Welcome Anny! Thank you so much!
I love your quiet calming voice and I appreciate all your explanations!
Thank you so much, Kezza! 💖
you and royalty soaps are my favorite soap sisters on youtube
so truly i love the shoutouts to one another.
Aww...thanks so much!
Excellent, very modern and crisp.
Thank you Alana! 🍃
I like the fancier top. Like you I like the crispness of the second attempt. Thank you for posting these videos
I like the flat top soap (classy) so much better than the spoon push effect.
Exceptional, professional educational teaching soap making video. Video visuals were extraordinary. Voice explanations, tips and tricks were very helpful. Wonderfully well done. Inspirational. Mucho Gracias
I liked them both for different reasons. Would be pretty with other colors.
Thank you Peggy! 💕
Beautiful!! I love both tops but really love the intricate design on the second. Thank you for sharing
Lovely...the color green would be awesome! Would like a video on dividers for 10 bar mold.
Thank you! I think I will make that video next! 😊👍
Totally in love with the second set of bars ... beautiful!
Both beautiful but the second one is perfect imo. 😍 love it
Thank you! 🌿
Lindíssimo! Adorei. Gratidão. Parabéns pela arte e pela aula expositiva de técnicas para o desenho. adorável!!!

I'm so glad you are learning! You will love CP soap making!
I prefer this color,it’s elegant
Thank you! I agree! Black and white is the most elegant! ❣🤍❣
I love the second top. Really a nice accent to the more simple interior design.
Thank you Teresa!
Hermoso❤ felicidades
Admiró tu trabajo.
Diseños divinos.
Thank you so much! 💝
Lovely video! As far as the question goes. I couldn't decide. I like them both equally.
Thank you so much! 💕
Elegant bars. I love to watch you clean them up after you cut them, and I always learn so much from your videos. Thank you for taking the time.
Aww...thank you for saying so! So glad you are learning! 💕
Very elegant! I love the top on the second one. I doubt I'll ever have the patience that you have to make a soap similar to this.
Thanks so much, Carolyn!
The second top is so beautiful. I do like both though. You are very talented. Thank you for your videos!
it's a beautiful job, congratulations
I absolutely love your channel, I am a new soaper, I love experimenting
Like them both, love the second one.
Thanks so much! 💖✨
I see your amazing hand blender. Where did you get that? It looks like a drill.
As an artist, I’d like to say you are right on.
3,5,7’s etc are great for catching the eye and making it move along the design😉
Hi Margi; good to know! 💕
I love your videos. The top on the second batch is my favorite. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you and you're welcome Melinda! 💕
Thoroughly enjoyed this video, as well as all the others you've made. This feather technique is achieved differently than I had imagined. Can't wait to try it and hope to tune in to your tutorial on the soap challenge. Keep the videos going please.
Thank you so much Laura! 💖
If you made green instead of black it would look like palm fronds.
Totally! 🌿
I like the swirled top!
I found you on your own, but I LOVE KATIE!! SHE IS FANTASTIC!
Yay! Thank you!
Your top on the 2nd batch made me smile. Loved them both.
Aww... thank you! I sure enjoyed the swirling! 💞
I love this so much!
I also love Katie and Royalty Soaps.
Much love!
Thank you so much Rose! 💖✨
Beautiful. I’d like the look of leaves. I’d like to try it in the future
Thank you! You should try it! I hope to try again soon too!💕
Second top gets my vote!
Thank you Judy! 💖
I could watch this over and over again.....
I would love to see a repeat video of this in different colours.
I would also love to see a 10bar divider video. That would be super. Xo
Okay great Rose! I think I might show the dividers next. 😊
I would love to see you make orange cream sickle! My favorite ❤️
Oh, that would be nice! 🧡
I can’t decide which top I like the most.... they’re both attractive 😊 another great tutorial 💕
Thanks so much, Susan! 😊
Love the second top💖
