I'll be adding more to this section in future videos. Be sure to check out Bramble Berry, Lovin' Soap, and the Nerdy Farmwife for more immediate info.
Hello everyone! I'm so happy to 'see' you again! đ Many of you have asked about the stick blender that I am using and until now I didn't have a link for you! But I finally found it by chance and you can find the link in the video description. YAY! Anyway...be sure to read the video description for more info including the next release, etc..
Hi Holly,
I have a question maybe u can help me with. I get my lye at Natures Garden and Iâve been making my soap for C.P probably 4 or 5 years now. I use my recipe the same on for years. I got a new shipment from them and I master batch my lye and I go to blend the lye and soap and it would mix and look like thin soap then when I stopped it turned into oil and water and the mica was way down on the bottom. I mixed it for over an hr. So of course I tossed it. So I gabbed another one and it did the same thing so I got rid of all of that. I open a new bottle of lye same company and I poured or my husband poured the lye in and it never dissolved at all. He mixed for 40 minutes and it never dissolved in the water?! I put salt, sugar , sodium lactate in my lye solution like I always do. But itâs almost like I was sold something other then lye. Iâve always got my lye from them. But this is the second bottle out of that box. Itâs still 2 days later sitting at the bottom separated from the water. And when I pick up the jar it moves around in the water like salt or sugar would if it didnât dissolve. Do u happen to know why this would do that.
Hey Holly, I know you and I share a love for coffee.. I was wondering if you've ever tried any of the coffee subscription services that are available?
Where do I find you at to order some bath bombs and soap for myself? I've watched so many videos and have made my own as I love any DIY projects to include the whole family, but want something special for myself, and you're the best I've seen and love the ingredients you use. Thanks
@@NorseButterfly I have not. We're really picky abut coffee and have decided that we really only like Pike's from Starbucks. We can't seem to find any other 'strong' coffee (most are a joke, haha!) that doesn't taste like motor oil. LOL Have you tried any that you like?
@@moonshadowessentialssoapsn5287 Wow, that's so discouraging. Perhaps you got Potassium Hydroxide instead of Sodium Hydroxide? That's the only thing I can think of that might cause these horrible results. YIKES!
Omgoodness So glad I found someone that adds the milk to the oils instead of the lye to the milk while risking the milk burning. This method is so much easier. Love it!! Thank you!! đđđđ
Yes me too! So much easier!
What a great idea to have a farmhouse collection! We feel the same way, ready for something simplerâ€ïž
I love the simple honesty of naked soap, Holly. Just love it.â€ïž Iris
Thank you Iris!
So wonderful to see your new collection Holly! We love our farmers market during the summer here and I put up all sorts of veggies and fruits to enjoy all year long!
Happy New Year Holly! Glad to see you back! Love the simple soap, thank you for sharing! đ
Thank you Nancy!
Awe Holly so lovely to see you back!..
I'm in love with your new soap & cant
wait to see more of them! đ
Lovely to see you back Holly hope you had a nice Xmas and New Years. Ours was quiet and delightful. IMO pink soaps are so nice I think itâs kind of a perfect colour for soap. So glad youâre back thanks Holly. đđ„°
Thanks again, Holly. Always look forward to your videos.đđ
Thank you!
Beautiful! Peach is one of my favorite scents! Can't wait to get my hands on one of these and excited to see what other goodies you come out with in this collection!
Thank you! I have been craving peach scents so much this year already!
Yay, you're back! That soap is simply beautiful! Thanks for sharing
Thank you Michelle!
Excited for your new collection! đ„° Happy to see a new video from you & hope you had a wonderful holiday season Holly âșïž
I love the color and peaches.... YUM. Great job!!đ§Ąđđđđđ§Ą
Thank you!
I'm going to have to get my hands on some of these farmhouse collections
I would be so pleased if you did Alesha! Thank you so much!
Holly, I so enjoy your videos! These a just beautiful.
Thank you Gwen!
Hey! Holly...I'm so pleased your back. I've missed you so...At one stage I started to watch how to make 12 different flavours of croissants....So not the same and highly calorific !!!đ. Bless you. Happy New Yearđ
I gave my son-in-law ( a professional cook) that same stick blender for his birthday a couple years ago and he absolutely loves it!
That's great! It would be extra awesome in the kitchen!
Where did you find this stick blender? I like it.

That pour was so ahhhhhhhh so satisfying.
I thought so too! Thank you Sarah!
You're welcome.
Happy New Year Holly and all xx
Love the new collection! I think the color turned out gorgeous!
Thanks for your videos, Holly! I really enjoy them.đ€
Thank you Angela!
Thank you for sharing. Iâve never add the milk to the oils before. It doesnât look like scorching was a problem so thatâs good to know.
Thanks for watching! I don't have any issues with scorching when adding a smaller portion of milk to the oils.
Happy New Year!
Great start with fresh peach, clean & refreshing. Love it!
For sure! Thank you!
Hi Holly, it's Jill. I hope you had a wonderful Christmas and New Year with the family. I caught up on those videos. It's nice things have calmed down in my studio, looks like at yours too. What a lovely batch of soap, so pretty and creamy. I love your theme for this coming release. I do one similar in the summer. I hope you haven't had the cold weather that we've had in Tennessee! The horses and dogs hate it. We added a new horse to our gang at Christmas. A buckskin Quarter Horse mare named Kit, she's a real sweetheart. I hope your Doberman is doing better, heard he hit a rough patch. Hopefully he stays on the upswing. Glad to have time to watch videos again. Stay safe and healthy! Look forward to the next video!
Beautiful Hollyâ€ïž so rich and creamy!!
Good to see you!! I haven't found a good peach fragrance yet. Every one I have tried has faded to nothing :( Looks great!! Love the single colors!!
Thank you! The worst experience I've had is with a peach one from Nature's Garden. I prefer blends for stubborn fragrances.
I love this!
Thank you!
Happy New Year and welcome back, did you use your own buttermilk? Every time you share your cows I canât stop thinking about homemade butter , cheese and buttermilk,. Lovely soap Holly, as always
Thank you! Oh I sure wish I could. Our three cows are boys. We could try to milk them but I don't think they'd be any too pleased. đ
@@moriversoap no, they wonât.
Really love your videos â€ïž your new collection sounds fab đđ€©
I love the peach fragrance!!!
Yay! Thank you!
Love it! I love peaches. So yummy
Thank you bunches!!
It's absolutely beautiful soap & now I've found your store, I will be getting me some of this soap. I signed up to get notified when your store reopens. I'm excited to try your soap and get some of your amazing bath bombs. Thanks for the video
Thank you so much!
Holly LOVE the color
Thank you Diane! I'm so glad!
Sooooo good girl! Love love love!

Awe thanks so much! What part of Missouri are you in?
@@moriversoap Iâm in the Independence area! Born and raised đ GO CHIEFS!
Very pretty soap!
Thank you!
Hello from Canada! I love watching you soap. I have learned new things and techniques watching your videos. I've learned a thing or two about packaging up the boxes as well, so thank you! When I can't see your face and just hear your voice, I keep thinking you're Molly from 90day fiance - Pillow talkers. LOL. Keep on doing your lovely videos!
Thank you! I am so glad!
Can't wait for you to open.. I just opened my last bar yesterday! Gotta get more!
Thank you! I'm so excited to reopen. I wish it wasn't taking so long!
Love it!
Thank you Donna!
Youâre most welcomeâ€ïž
Thank you for sharing such inspiring videos. I am wondering what the dimensions are of your large square mold & how much batter does it hold? I did try the links you kindly shared however the mold is not to be found. đđ
Thanks! My husband usually builds the molds for me. The one used in this video was 18 x 16 and holds 40 lbs.
Very petty color Holly!
Thank you Cheryl!
Do not forget to always activate the Arabic language. Your channel is great and I am an Egyptian following you. I wish you good luck and thank you đ
Thanks! I would definitely like to be able to add more languages. My account doesn't allow for it right now. I'm still trying to figure out how to go about it.
Nice
Thank you!
So lovely! Nice job. I don't know about you but I have to scrape my little mica containers or else they drive me crazy đ! Have ya gotten your mini scrapers yet? I'd be super interested in seeing them work. Y'all have a great year! Hugz, Tree
Haha! It does drive me a little crazy. LOL I had an amazing customer send me some scrapers from Michaels. They're fantastic and they may be my favorite new thing!
I notice that I angled my phone to pour with you lol. Beautiful peach đ color
That's funny!
Hi, when will you make more watermelon for the farmhouse collection?
The fragrance that I needed was sold out so I'm waiting for more to restock. I do keep my products in rotation though. The next release coming up will be a Mini Rainbow Extravaganza!
Great idea, farmhouse soaps. This looks like tomatoe soup though lol. Thanks Holly đ
Happy new year holli
Happy New Year!
How do you treat the tops of your soaps? Do you spray all of them with alcohol? Or do you steam them before cutting and filming? Just curious đ
I usually spray them off an on with alcohol. I did have to pull the steamer out recently for a batch as it was just covered with ash.
Just wondering at what temp are your oils and lye solution when you combine them.
I soap at room temp. That varies from 58 in the winter to 78 in the summer.
@@moriversoap thank you so much for your reply. I love watching your CZcams channel. You come accross as very experienced yet make it look so enticing. Hope to be able to shop on your page soon.
Beautiful soap. I have often wondered how do soap makers stay compliant with the FDA? I mean how does that work?
Typically soap doesn't have a lot of restrictions. We can't make any claims about it other than it cleanses the skin. It is on the cosmetics side of things that we have to be super particular with ingredients, labeling, etc..
@@moriversoap Thank you for the insight. Love your products!!
What is a good peach fragrance oil that has staying power?
I am sitting here trying to think of what I used! I have good notes but they are stored at the moment. I think this was a mixture. I am going to be getting into my stuff in the next couple of weeks. Please feel free to ask me over and over until I get that answered for you.
Hi Marcie! I was digging through all my notes the other day and remembered you had asked about the peach. I used Peach Nectar from The Flaming Candle in this soap.
Hi Holly, may I ask what you use for a superfat?
It depends on the recipe but most of the time I use 6%.
Other than on here, I've never seen "lye lint" before...what is the worst case scenario if it isn't removed?
I soap with a reduced solution to accommodate for milks, sodium lactate, etc.. That scenario will cause lye lint as well as a cool room/rapid cool down. If it's fresh it blends in perfectly. If it is 'crunchy' feeling when stirring with a spoon, it can potentially not blend in well and cause a lye pocket. I have never had issues with it myself because it's either fresh or I strain it if not.
Where I can buy the clear box packaging? Thks
I'm not quite sure what clear box you're talking about. Let me know and I'll try to answer.
why dont you like to pour at a thin trace?
I tend to get a lot more ash on the soap when I pour too thin. Sometimes it can even create a mottled appearance to the soap.
@@moriversoap 0h wow ok ty so much
Hi Holly, I was wondering why you choose to use fragrances instead of pure essential oils why i ask is your using some natural products , honestly theres alot of people that cant breathe in chemical fragrances as they qre toxic to people like myself i have a lung disease ,love your videos âŁ
Yes, cold process soap is made using natural products in general. That's just the nature of handcrafted soap. I do use essential oils and fragrances in my products. I am not a strictly essential oil soaper though you will find many that are. That is their market. It's not my market. Fragrances offer scents that cannot be achieved using essential oils. We use fragrance and essential oils at the safe usage rates (usually much lower) determined by IFRA. Essential oils also have real side effects that can bother some people as well. They are more strictly regulated for that reason. There are many people that avoid essential oils. I have sensitivities to several essential oils myself. I often love using unscented soaps...no essential oils and no fragrance either. Anyway, I think you'll find that most soapmakers use a variety of essential oils and fragrances. Remember, venom, poison ivy, etc. are natural too but it doesn't mean it's safe.
