- If you've watched my last couple of videos, you've seen my red and white holiday soaps. But this time of year is more than the observed holidays. It's typically a time for family and friend get togethers, and festive foods In our house, the cooler weather means it's fireplace time, hot drinks and bundling in blankets. So, with some thought, I decided to make another blue soap signifying winter. Plus, I'm using the fragrance Angel Baby and that gave me the idea to name this one "Angel". What came to mind was the use of white and light blue as the dominant colors and the feel of coolness. The drop pour plus spoon swirl gave me the swirl ideas, because I though they would look winglike.
I also included a short demonstration about how I mix my micas at the beginning. Hope you'll enjoy.
Thanks to all who have ordered soap from the website at vibrantsoap.com I have a nice variety of soap waiting for you there.
I'm still uploading two photos a day on the Vibrant Soap Instagram page, so check that out for a look at some of the visuals that inspire me. Maybe they'll inspire you too!
I thank you all for your subscriptions to this channel and all your wonderful comments too. I appreciate it all! Take good care of yourselves! - Jak na to + styl
That one is very beautiful - the bars got nicer the more you cut - the gold is so pretty in there - you are a colour genius! xxxx
And you're always so nice. Thank you so much!
Thank You! Another great video! My dad who is 81 took my brother and myself when I was a youngster on camping trips. He would point out trees and different plants to us. We would hike. Thank you for sharing with us.
Glad you had those experiences too. They make such an impact on your lives don't they. Thanks pal, it's great to be in touch.
I love the vibrant colors against the light blue color!
I absolutely love this loaf!!! You may not have noticed it but I did. You have such a beautiful array of masquerade masks, medieval dragons and maybe one or two stingrays in these individual bars of soaps. ❤️
Glad you like it! I'm going to take a closer look to find those images. Thank you so much!
I cant get over how sparkly the gold remained, its just so pretty and dainty
Thanks. I learned that by trying a little bit of a concentrated gold mica.
The colours go so well together with the right amount of contrast and the swirl is beautiful. Another stunning soap as always.
Thanks so much Shirley. Now I bet you're off to make some Pavlova. :)
@@vibranttravelswithClyde I’ll make some pavlova for Christmas dessert like I usually do. This time I’ll try to remember to take a picture and post it on Instagram.
Love the blues and the gold together
Thanks Angela! Gold with just about anything...well, I love it.
Stunningly femininely gorgeous soaps, bar none. Xquisite, my dear. Yes! and cleanliness iz nxt to godliness so the name angelic wit the blues and shimmer gold on white? Fabulous! just fabulous. Perfect. Tata👍💃
Glad ta hear parents safe. Keep in good touch, mine are both gone and I miss their joy and fun like a phat kid loves cake. Yu feel me? Stay tight ❌⭕❌⭕
Oh and one last thing. YOU LOVE ALL THE COLORS, MR. ARTIST. Even I kno thaT and am far away. Your moods and projected outcomes of your bars command your color choices and because of that yu have great room for much affection towards color...all of dem, yup. Boy, it shows.
Thanqu so much. I so enjoy your vids. Feel like I'm standin in yo kitchen workshop area chattin it up, laughin and smilin. Lolz
Mad props to yu for such a creation and lil superlative creations all. Yu art, man!🖤👋💯
Again, I love your poetic praise. Hope I'm worthy of all that and I thank you from the bottom of my heart. You caught me loving the colors again. Thanks also for the loving thoughts of parents. I guess that's you like a guardian angel on my shoulder as I'm soaping. Thanks for being there.
And AGAIN you gloop the majority of the remaining soap on one end. :) You're not the only one who does that. I catch myself doing that as well.
Yep, we're all human. We do the best we can.
Good to see you’re staying well Clyde. This is a great soap. I’ve worked out why I love your videos so much-you’re so peaceful! So controlled. If that had been me with the soap thickening like that I’d have been all rush and panic.🤣 you just adapt and make something fabulous. You’ve inspired me to try your dual swirl for my next soap. Stay well and happy. Love from Australia. We’re praying for you guys over there in winter. Our summer is keeping us almost Covid free. I pray you can join us soon. Let’s hope sanity returns to the world in 2021🤗
Sheri! Absolutely. Thanks for your good wishes. You've heard that we're experiencing an awful spike now. I love walking around, but I encounter too many who aren't wearing masks...still! Good thing that I have lots of interests that I can do at home. We've got a friend down there in Australia that we hope to visit one day. We had to cancel several trips because of the pandemic. I wish you the best too. Glad to hear about your status down there.
@@vibranttravelswithClyde stay well Clyde. Hopefully we’ll all be out of this madness before too long and you’ll be able to take your trip to the land downunder. It would be nice to return to pre-Covid certainty, but I think it might take a while. Like you, I’m grateful for the hobbies.🤗
Thank you for sharing you beautiful talent!! Watching your videos is so mesmerizing and fun. I so enjoy your creations. 💖💐
Hello Sharon! ... thank you for watching. I sure enjoy the soap making progress. Glad you like the videos.
Fantastic colors and the design is really beautiful. Great job Clyde
Hello Soapy Oaks! Thank you very much!
So beautiful! I was reminded of butterflies and birds in some of those swirls. Gorgeous soap!
Great imagery in your comment. Love that. Thank you so much!
Love this design. Love the idea of having a mixed background rather than one colour really adds extra interest 💕. Glad your parents are staying safe...such worrying times 💕
Hi Hilary, so nice of you to mention my parents. Appreciated. Glad you like that mixed background too. Thank you!
This is a really beautiful soap, I love seeing that splash of purple inside the white. A very fitting name for this soap. I'm so happy you have spoken to your parents and they are safe and well. In Tasmania, a small Island compared to many we have been Covid virus free for many many months it's worrying hearing news from the rest of the world.
When I was a teacher in a national program, I met some other teachers from Tasmania. Thanks and I'm glad you're staying safe from Covid. Hope it stays that way. Thanks as always.
I love your collaboration of colors. They are so beautiful. The texture top is beautiful.
Thank you so much Consuela!
I knew there was a reason why I woke up at 6:30 in the morning (beside the pets telling me feed me mom). It's so pretty! Stay safe my favorite soaper.
Awww thank you! Now you can feed the pets! Stay safe too! Good to hear from you.
@@vibranttravelswithClyde Will do!
I love the colors, beautiful soaps 😍💖
Thank you very much Edgar!
thank you so much for posting this video. I have learned so much from you. Your color choices and designs inspire me. I was so interested to see how you handled the acceleration with so much calmness. Seems I always panic and this was a great lesson for me to watch and learn. You are a master!
Awww thanks so much. To tell you the truth, I often panic on the inside while keeping it cool on the inside. :D
Beautiful colors and swirl in this one
Thanks so much Jacque for that. Appreciated!

What a beautiful soap ! Soft, but full of energy ! « Angel’s heart » I would call it, if I can make a suggestion...
Hi Sylvie, I would have except I already have a soap and video called Angel's Heart. :D
@@vibranttravelswithClyde oh yes ! I remember. Another beautiful one. Nevertheless, this soap, for me, is the representation of an angelic presence.
@@sylvieprevost5328 Thank you very much.
I love the different shades of blue! Are you going to do more cooking videos?? Do you have any ideas for like holiday stuff, desserts or meal ideas? I was just wondering if you were cooking, what are you planning to make? I’m not a meat eater, but I want to make something special. I’m just checking out what other people’s holiday menu is like.
It will be the usual Thanksgiving fare, except a Spatchcocked chicken instead of the turkey, Mashed sweet potatoes, dressing, cranberry sauce and a pumpkin pie for dessert. Wonder what you're going to prepare? Thanks Ashley and early Thanksgiving wishes for you and family.
@@vibranttravelswithClyde So far I’m just planning on all the usuals, exactly what you listed, but I think everyone wants turkey. But mashed sweet potatoes sounds yummy. I think I’m going to make some new dips, like: pumpkin cream cheese, pineapple coconut cranberry cream cheese ball, & mango salsa. I guess a simple pumpkin pie is good enough.
Hi, very nice soap you made! Do you know where I can get the basket that you held your mold with?
Desperately to make my first batch of soap next week and I am stuck at the last part, The palm oil, i just can't find where to buy my oils and butters and which ones I can be sure are sustainable. If anyone can help steer me in the right direction I'd be so grateful. I just can't use palm oil without seeing dead orangutans
Look for Palm Done Right or RSPO palm. Other non-palm options are lard, tallow, and soy wax (Golden Wax 444 because it's 100% soy - no paraffin, vybar or other additive). I know people can be averse to animal fats in soap, but lard and tallow are almost a perfect match for human skin's fatty acid profile, therefore is extremely skin friendly. It's a very green option because those fats won't sit in the landfill creating greenhouse gases; lye changes the molecular structure of fats - and makes them more biodegradable.
Another thing to look for when buying palm oil - is "no-stir" palm or hydrogenated palm. Otherwise, your container of palm has to be completely melted, stirred very well before you can measure it out for soaping. It can cause irregularities in your soap without this, because the fatty acids separate.
Brambleberry used to carry RSPO palm. Amazon. Bulk Apothecary (watch for shipping cost!). Good luck! For other questions, try www.soapmakingforum.com....a very calm, friendly helpful group of people - no drama.
Thank you. Are you in an area where it's difficult to find oil these days? As the pandemic started, my source of olive oil dried up for a time. I had to have it shipped. Anyway, my best to you and hope you can find your supplies.
@@karijaneify Great of you to share all that. Thank you!
@@karijaneify thankyou so much for the info it's all so interesting and very helpful as i am trying to figure it all out. oh I would love to get the palm done right but their website doesn't seem to have a selling point. All I can find is the information about all their accreditations and all that.
@@vibranttravelswithClyde thanks & yes i live in Brisbane Qld where oils aren't hard to come by usually (like olive or sunflower or coconut But the palm oil is and larger bulk quantities of avocado or hemp and things. I never see it anywhere & so far on amazon I'm finding only very small containers of it with 0 accreditation or info on where it came from. I'm quite lost
