Butterfly Swirl



For starters, please accept my apologies for any mistakes or 'what is that?'.... that may be in this post :)

This is my first ever blog post, butterfly swirl, soap challenge, and my second time using micas for colourants.So, honestly, I'm not sure what I'm doing, but I hope this blog works, and thanks Amy, for making me get out of my comfort zone and try something new!  


I have only seen a few butterfly swirl soaps, but they are fascinating! Soap swirls and designs are my weakness, actually let's be honest, anything to do with soap is my weakness, and I spend far too much time googling them!

 So why am I still here? I've got to go make soap! 


An hour later.......

This is what the top looks like:

Micas from Nuture 
I decided to try making little butterflies to decorate the top. Original, I know!


Scented with a nice blend that is fruity sweet, light and airy.
Now I just have to wait, very impatiently, so I can see what it looks like inside! 






That Afternoon!








It's not perfect, but I'm really happy with my first attempt.
 Then again, maybe there's a three winged  butterfly out there somewhere! :)
