Step 1: Prepare your Fall Leaves: Using 3 of your mixing bowls weight out and place 80
grams of Goat's Milk Melt and Pour Soap into each one.
Step 2: Next, melt the first bowl of soap in the microwave 30
seconds at a time. Stir gently. Keep melting until all soap is in a liquid
state.
Step 3: Add 25 drops of FUN Tomato Red and 10 drops of FUN Red
Oxide Soap Colorant. Stir well. Next, add 4 grams of Fresh Fallen Leaves
fragrance oil. Mix again. Then,
pour soap into your dime size leaves mold. Spritz with alcohol and allow to fully set up. Set any unused soap aside.
Please
Note: In order to have enough red leaf embeds, you
will need to fill your dime sized leaf mold an additional (4) times with red
soap.
Step 4: Once your dime sized leaf mold has set up,
place the mold upside down and gently ease the soap leaves out of the
mold. Then, remelt your red soap and
fill your embeds again. Repeat until all
red soap is used. Set all finished red
soap leaf embeds aside.
Step
5: Prepare your Tree Base: This should be done while you are working on
the red leaf embeds. In another microwave
safe glass container, weigh out and melt 1200 grams of Diamond Clear Melt and
Pour Soap in the microwave 30 seconds at a time. Stir gently. Keep melting
until all soap is in a liquid state.
Step
6: Add 60 grams Fresh Fallen Leaves fragrance oil; stir
well. Once incorporated, pour the soap
into your square loaf mold. Spritz the soap with
alcohol. Allow to partially set up.
Step 17: Prepare the Green Portion: In a microwave safe glass container, weigh
out and melt 180 grams of Goat's Milk Melt and Pour Soap in the microwave 30
seconds at a time. Stir gently. Keep melting until all soap is in a liquid
state.
Step 18: Add 60 drops FUN Kelly Green Soap Colorant
and 9 grams of Fresh Fallen Leaves fragrance oil. Stir well.
In a mixing bowl, set aside 60 grams of melted green soap.
Step 19: Spritz the square loaf mold with alcohol. Then, carefully pour the remaining melted
green soap into the square loaf mold.
Allow this to fully set up.
Step
20: While the green layer is setting up, gently
stir all of your leaf embeds to incorporate all the colors together. Now, remelt the 60 grams of green soap that you set
aside.
Step
21: Spritz the set up green layer of soap with alcohol. Then, using the 60 grams of green soap, pour
a thin layer on top of the original green layer. Then, sprinkle the variously colored leaves
on top of the green soap in the mold.
Step
22: Melt 180 grams of Diamond Clear Melt and Pour
Soap in the microwave. Pour this over
the leaves to hold any loose leaves in place.
Allow this to set up.
Please Note: Due to the natural color of the fragrance oil Fresh
Fallen Leaves, there may be some slight discoloration in the clear portions of
your soap.
Your Fresh Fallen Leaves Soap Loaf is now ready to be cut and used. Enjoy!
