    Hi Holly, I stumbled on your videos in my feed and have been glued to your tutorials ever since. I love how your soaps come out, how you shoot and narrate the videos and I just can't stop watching your videos. Can I also say that I just love your style of soaping. You, along with the other handful of soapers I watch are just so inspiring. Note: I pick up habits from the other soapers. My habit from you is when I start to make my soaps I will definitely stick blend and mix the batter with the spatula AND place the spatula in the soap mould before pouring the soap batter in. I'm in my second year of learning and just love to see the wonderful veteran's show their knowledge. Thank you for being here for early soapers like me! 😊

    When I was little we collected cockles and mussels, Holly your clam shell pouring was so realistic, you always make it look easy but I know it isn’t. You have become my favourite soap maker to watch, your videos are always beautiful. Thank you it is a pleasure to watch you and dream of producing a soap half as good as yours. Take care.

It's so cool the soap looks just like a clam shell, I love watching you guys make beautiful soap! Was this a 2 lb mold? Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful videos as they are so relaxing to watch and listen to. This covid 19 virus is crazy, it's like the whole world stopped! My family and I are doing well and hope your family is too. Stay well my soapmaking friend and God speed to you and everyone on here reading these comments. 💞
