I spray alcohol first then place buds. My buds are homegrown and always keep their purple.
Oooo, home grown! I bet those are lovely 💗
Ive heard other people mention that it works.
Thanks for the giggle this morning, the mouse poop struggle is real 😂
🤣 yes, yes it is 😂
Try dipping them in pure(1st process) wax cappings beeswax- this is *the purest* wax, what makes a WHITE candle. Without any dye. It's a very light yellow at first, until heated and formed, then cools to the purest of virgin whites. What's actually used in(and donated to, as a tithe) churches! For *THEIR* ceremonial candles.😉you just won't find a purer wax. Of course, a light enough dip will leave you with that clear coat when dry.
Wow, that's a fantastic idea. Never would have thought of something like that, cool!😃
That's a great idea. I allow my botanicals to soak in melted shea butter or avocado oil (because of the high unsaponifiables). That always kept mine from turning brown even when thoroughly mixed into the soap, but I love this idea.
@@SarahAnneStuff That's a great idea! Thanks for sharing!
Do you have a link to Amazon streamer? I'd like for you to get credit if I buy it.
Thanks! I just added a link for you.
I love your laugh. ❤
Cool and subtle design. 💐 I felt like the size of your bar became wider right? Now they look a big bar for me. I am not sure. May be I am wrong. Enjoyed the video though missed your pleasing talk and smile. 💕💕
Thank you ☺️
Thank you for the video. Can you post the recipe please
I don’t share this particular recipe
So gorgeous! I love love a white creamy bar of soap! When I make them I just can't wait to get them under some water and try out the creamy lather. ESPECIALLY goat milk soap!! yours turned out beautifully, the clay looks wonderful in there
🥰 thank you 💕
Hi Ellen! I just made my first batch of goats milk soap and when I cut it, I noticed little yellow spots. Is this because I need to strain my goats milk/lye solution or maybe I should have put my mold in the freezer? My goats milk was frozen and I soaped at room temp. 🤔 Thank you...I sure enjoy your videos!
Some times the milk fats can turn dark yellow, it can be tricky. Some folks do put the soap in the fridge to prevent gel phase..
Thank you very much! I stick blended my gm/lye mixture this time to break up the little pieces of fat and then I strained. I put this loaf in the fridge...fingers crossed!! I very much appreciate your feedback!
Do you let everything get to just room temperature ?
Yes, I like my oils and lye to be around 80 degrees or so..
Where do you get your slide loaf cutter?
The slab splitter is from Workshop Heritage.
When I use flower buds of any type on top I let the soap cure first then I drizzle a little melt and pour on top to act as glue. Sometimes neater so it's not obvious and sometimes I drop it on carelessly and let the drops drop. I like that melting type look
Oh, that's a great idea!
Thank you great idea
Dust your lavender buds with a nice purple mica and it will help keep them purple❤️❤️❤️🙏🇨🇦
You are right, they do look like mouse poop on top of the soap and then they all fall off during the cut. I love the way your soap looks. That's my story...I use that line all the time. LOL The top looks great.
😆 yes! Thank you!
Very nicely done, one of my favorites to make, beautiful
Thank you! It's a classic
Such a beautiful video, thank you for sharing! Do you mind sharing where you got supplies? Mainly your mold and cutters! They're perfect!
Thanks! The description box has links to items used
Have you ever had issues with fragrance oil spots? I discovered that if I don’t mix the FO very well in the oil mixture, I get these brown spots that smell strongly of FO.
I haven't had that issue, but I have had a few FO's seep and that's a huge bummer...
Dont spray with alcohol spray it before you add them, I had the same issue with roses......i dont spray them anymore
Thanks! Yes, that seems to be working!
Elen, only once I've added lavender flowers to soap. You're right. Looks like a mouse poop .. Haha.. I never add them again. You made a wonderful soap.
🤣 Thanks!
Looks lovely!! Do you freeze your goats milk? Does your lye solution have titanium dioxide? So creamy and white! Love it ❤️
thank you! Yes, I freeze my goat milk in cubes, and I did add about 1/2 teaspoon of T.D. to the lye solution.
I was going to say spray alcohol first then put on buds, but you did it on your own and it looks awesome! Very creamy looking. Lovely. 👍
Thanks! It's such a learning curve... but I think the spraying before did help, because the buds held their color much better😃
Beautiful work as always, Ellen! I just love your videos and soaps 💕

🥰 thank you, and blessings to you Shonna
Hi, Ellen...could you put subtitle in spanish, please?🥰
Not sure how to do that, I'll look into it😉
Spray soap before adding lavender buds. It works for me
Yes! I learned that the hard way😅
Enjoy watching you! Do you let your soap go through gel phase when using goat milk?
Thanks! Yes, I usually do gel on all my soaps. the exception being if it has high sugar like honey... then I don't.
I have that exact fragrance so I definitely going to do a replica of this!
It's so good! Have fun soaping!
i put on whole lavender flowers and find these dont show the brown look.
I found that if I don't spritz them with alcohol, they hold the color better...
is the red clay for color?
Yes, it's the blush color swirl (and it's great on the skin too)
Lovely as always!
thank you😊
Hi Ellen, I enjoyed watching that vid and the soap came out looking creamy and luxurious..thank you !
Do you use a cooled lye mixture to add to the frozen goat milk cubes, or do u use the lye when it’s hot and then use it to melt the cubes...I use it hot but the milk still scorches slightly.
Thank you! I use frozen goat milk cubes and add my lye very slowly to reduce scorching.
Ellen Ruth Soap thanks a lot Ellen, I will try that for sure !
How much time passes between when you cut the soap and you stamp it?
I'll usually wait several hours to a day..
