How To Make A Wood Grain Soap

Here is the video Instagram asked for after I posted the pictures of my wood grain soap.
It was scented in Tobacco Vanille from Muddy Soap Co. This fragrance can be very quick moving, which I talk about in the video and how I tame it, but I know most folks just fast forward to the pour part.
I used no colorant for the brown, that’s just the Tobacco Vanille that discolors.
I used titanium dioxide from brambleberry, and shimmer gold mica -

Please note, if you are new to cold process soap making, do as I say and not as I do.
I routinely soap in short sleeves with long gloves, and a face shield. (Which you can see very briefly in my Lemonder Blue Bee video, it’s a bit scary, sorry! )
However, you should always soap in long sleeves and with full protective gear! Lye is dangerous, as it is hot soap!
I hope you have enjoyed this video, if you have, a thumbs up and a comment really do make my day. I read each and every one, and appreciate them tremendously!
If you didn’t enjoy it, and left a thumbs down, let me know why in the comments! I always appreciate constructive criticism.
Happy soaping!

A friend gave me some cedar fragrance and I was pondering how I was going to use it… I saw this video and knew it would be PERFECT (if I could pull it off….)… I tried my 3rd-ever loaf of soap with this technique last night… I am SO thrilled with the look of the loaf!! And I really can’t wait to cut into it and see what it reveals!!! Thank you so much for sharing this! This new soaper went from intimidated to inspired in 20 minutes!! 😻

This method is FAR simpler and I appreciate you filming it and showing/explaining how to cut the soap properly (it was a little confusing before your video). I also love the two-in-one design with the line pour and wood grain designs depending on how you cut it. I adore this FO by Muddy Soap Co. It is such an intoxicating fragrance and I fell in love with it immediately. I did sadly learn the hard way how much this FO discolors and bleeds into unscented batter lol, it completely overwhelmed my blues, gold and white 😅. It’s a favorite though and will stick around. Thanks for sharing
