Leaf and Flower Soap Mold

Video Transcript

"In this clip we're going to use this leaf and flower mold for soaps. And this is actually a two-step part that we're going to use to get the desired look we want. It has a little inset here where we're going to fill up the leaf and fill up the flower, and let that set before we pour on our final layer. So, I have melted here this avocado base again, just in a white, and I'm going to use a small spoon and fill that center portion very carefully, and very slowly. Just adding small amounts until we fill up the center portion. Then I'll do the same on the flower. And I got a little bit on the inside there. I could let it go if it doesn't bother me, or I could try to clean up the inside of the mold with a little piece of tissue, which is what I'm going to do. It actually set up so hard, it just came off like a little bead. And then we'll let that set. All right, our first step has set up nice and hard now, and to complete this, we're going to spritz each mold with our alcohol. And I've prepared over here some olive oil soap based with a fragrance and color, and I've just done two different colors for design features only. And that has been all mixed and melted together, and it's going to go right over that first layer. And we'll do the same for the flower. And we'll let that set up until it's hard. All right, our leaf and flower molds are set up and ready to pop out. They've been in the freezer for a minute, and they just pop right out there. And you can see the effects of the two-step, how that first layer just pops out and the olive oil translucent soap adds really nice to the color. And there's our leaf and flower mold soaps! "
