I absolutely love how you are with your employee, you praise her and appreciate her talent, its awesome to hear you talking about her like shes family. New subscriber. Love this atmosphere and creativity 👍🥇
This is one of the most beautiful presentations I have ever seen on the web. I am following you from Croatia, Europe, and in my country, there are no workshops for such creations. I am so grateful to both of you, Mrs. Soap & Clay as well as Mrs. GeorgiaMae for your recipe as well as sharing your knowledge. With your presentations, you are really expanding this wonderful art far beyond the borders of your country. Thank you so much.
I know this is old but I'm going back and binging old videos. Georgia Mae is all of the awesome. I wanted to @ but didn't know the spelling. So sorry. All the props to her. Miss her much. Hope she's doing well.❤❤❤
You two are the absolute best! I love love watching you! And your soap is outstanding! I'm a soap maker myself but I have only been doing it for a year and I taught myself between RUclips soaping 101 and thermal mermaid. I met and soap maker who had been making soap for 47 and she taught me a few things but I love to watch other soapmakers to try and see either where I went wrong or if I missed something. Your channel is fantastic and I watch it imceststlily your an excellent teacher!
This is great! My first batch was with my regular soap recipe, with tallow. Which, needless to say, didn’t turn out so great. It was surprisingly usable, with a lot of work and patience, but difficult. I didn’t have cocoa butter so I replaced the cocoa butter with Shea after checking the soap properties of both. I think it will work. (I’ll let you know). So I made an array of pinks, red, black (dark gray) and white for some Valentine’s Soaps. I love your videos! I’ve been making (plain-ish) soap for well over 15 years but I’m also an artist (paint, jewelry, etc) so now I’m seeing how I can make soap my art too! Georgia Mae is amazing. I hope I can do as well as she does. Thank you both for the videos! 💖
@Soap & Clay! Don't be so hard on yourself! If you create art you are an artist, just because someone else makes different or more impressive art does not mean that what you create is not art. If you have created something that causes emotion and human feeling than you have made art! I think that everyone should appreciate the art they create every day. Everyone watching this- you are an artist if you made something! it doesn't matter how "good" or "professional" that something is. Art is art! ♥
Soap dough is my jam, or dough 😁 I have so much fun designing soaps with soap dough. I especially like to use it on top to match the theme. I absolutely adore her ducks 😻
I tried this recipe. Thank you so much for giving us so many recipes! Mine came out a bit sticky, but I've been having an absolute ball with it. I wish I could show you pics of what I did with it!
Oh hi! I just saw this video of yours just now. I really wanted so much to make my own soap dough but I don’t have Avocado oil. What can I use in place of the Avocado oil? TIA for your soonest response. Your video was two years ago I don’t know if you are still active but I hope you’re still so that I can follow your instructions on how to make soap. Warm regards 🥰💗by the way, I’m your new subscriber now 🥰
Questions!! 1) If you have a specific purpose / embed you want to use the soap dough for, does fragrancing the soap dough batch positively or negatively affect the pliability of the dough? Neutral? Dependent on the fragrance? Avoid ones that have significant acceleration maybe? 2) How does the cornstarch affect color? Notable lightening of any color? Negligible? None? RUclips threw this video at me randomly and I have a couple projects in mind that would benefit from some soap doughs...
Hey! You sure can! I tend to make my soap dough white and add colors to it as I need it. Takes a bit of extra work but I’m not left extra of an unwanted color that way.
Do you ever do soap dough projects with the kidlets? I'm thinking about making up a batch for my son and I to do a project together because I know he would dig it. And he has an ENTIRE DRAWER of play doh molds and extruders that I think might be handy. As a mom and a maker, is there any reason I shouldn't let my 7 year old use soap dough? I mean, it IS basically cured, and lye shouldn't be an issue, but I thought maybe I should run it by a more experienced soaper so I know if I'm being ignorant about something.
Soap dough has fully gone through saponification and is safe for kiddos to use, for sure! And as an added bonus, it won’t taste any worse than play doh if the super littles put it in their mouth. 😂
Hi. U didn’t tell 3 things. 1). How much SF? How much water as percentage of oils OR Lye Concentration? 3) temp while mixing lye into oils? 4). Did u go through gel phase? Any alternate of avocado oil? Avocado & rice bran r too much expensive in my country?
The recipe is in the video about 2.5 minutes in. If you’re having trouble determining super fat and what not, plug it into soap calc and check out the specifics. To the rest, the video covers it! Have fun!
I had the same... Soft dough but by the next day... Waaalaaah beautiful soap dough... I'm oceans away from Mrs Soap and clay otherwise if I was closer would have given a huge hug to say thank you soooo much

Very informative. Thank you for the instructional video. Very helpful.
Georgia Mae has the BEST job ever!

“Her soap dough creations are never simple” simple isn’t in my vocabulary😅
Georgia Mae don’t I know it. 😂

SO MUCH THIS!!!!! The world needs so much more of this! 😻

Great work. On another note...that shirt is hilarious 😆
the t-shirt 😆 love it 🌰🌰

Hey! You can always tag me on insta so I can see them!
Can you help me to write the recipe down ? I can't read them. It is so blur, the last superfat 3 % ? And the last sentence ?
Oh hi! I just saw this video of yours just now. I really wanted so much to make my own soap dough but I don’t have Avocado oil. What can I use in place of the Avocado oil?

Would this recipe work with cookie cutters making "soap sugar cookie" but instead of using colored icing using a medium traced CP soap as the icing?
Love the idea!
Question....
Someone mentioned piping soap dough?!?!
I've never heard of that. How can we pipe soap dough? I'm very interested 😁
Congratulations!!!! Woot woot!! Thanks for sharing your recipe!!! What is the lye concentration % of the recipe?
Hi! I’m not sure on this one; I posted the recipe roughly 3 minutes in. I wanna say 5% superfat, and 2.4x lye for the water. :)
Fantastic
Questions!!
1) If you have a specific purpose / embed you want to use the soap dough for, does fragrancing the soap dough batch positively or negatively affect the pliability of the dough? Neutral? Dependent on the fragrance? Avoid ones that have significant acceleration maybe?

Can you add color later once it sets ?
Hey! You sure can! I tend to make my soap dough white and add colors to it as I need it. Takes a bit of extra work but I’m not left extra of an unwanted color that way.

Can I put soap dough in a bottle and use it? If yes, how long?
I dunno, I’ve never tried it! Heat some water, use 1 part soap dough, 2 parts water, and let us know what happens!

@@MrsSoapAndClay ❤️
Is there any remedy in case if any dough starts cracking or fine lines occurring?
The dough is cracking after it’s been formed into something? You can try a bit of glycerin and close the cracks. Have fun!
@@MrsSoapAndClay wow. Thank U so much ☺️
Nice t shirt! 😆
Just went and bought one!
It’s one of my favorites, for sure! 😂
My dough was so so so soft.
Give it a few days to firm up!
I had the same... Soft dough but by the next day... Waaalaaah beautiful soap dough... I'm oceans away from Mrs Soap and clay otherwise if I was closer would have given a huge hug to say thank you soooo much
Where might I find the rest of the videos for this? Does she have a channel?
For soap dough? I have like four or five others on the channel, mostly all in the Year One playlist.
