The Soap Bar: October 2014
http://thesoapbar.blogspot.com/2014_10_01_archive.html
Saturday, October 18, 2014. I've been awfully thoughtful today. Had a 3 day migraine that made me temporarily insane but I worked through the week anyway. This morning, the quietness of the house and the early onset of head pain, naturally lended itself to a 4 hour nap. So when I woke up, I'm feeling still. The birds are chirping and there is nothing else. A photographer has done his or her job if the image took me away, even for a moment. I am just sharing some of the ones I looked at today.

The Soap Bar: August 2015
http://thesoapbar.blogspot.com/2015_08_01_archive.html
Sunday, August 2, 2015. Onward and upward. We shall gain strength this month. August is a transitional month for many of us who are effected by school. Summer winds down, vacations come to an end and nerves arise because of going to a new school and the weather will be changing. It's a time where we may need to find love and strength from a new source. Focus on something bright green and go with it. This challenge has a few challenges to meet. Place of the food ingredient's origin. With the hashtag: #ori...

The Soap Bar: January 2015
http://thesoapbar.blogspot.com/2015_01_01_archive.html
Sunday, January 18, 2015. Our creation for the magazine assignment turned out to be our top selling soap: Palm Beach Illustrated soap. Scented with a tropical sweet fruity and floral blend which matched perfectly. This was our interpretation of Palm Beach's ocean. I added ground oatmeal for my bottom layer (sand), apricot meal pencil line (crushed shells), white chopped soap embed layer (large shells and rocks), blue/green Peacock mica. Swirly layer (ocean) and topped with a sprinkle of Goldfinger mica.

The Soap Bar: May 2015
http://thesoapbar.blogspot.com/2015_05_01_archive.html
Sunday, May 31, 2015. Summer Loving.It Happened So Fast. Do you remember when you were a kid, school had ended and summer stretched out in front of you filled with endless possibilities? How you were full of optimism and excitement and it felt like you had all the time in the world to make anything you could imagine happen? Memories can be extremely difficult to tap into for some, and for those of you that have almost no good memories, share with us just one, even if it was a childhood fantasy and not an...

Every picture was interesting and creative and there's no way I could choose the best. I will choose three, as I promised, but there were dozens that I wanted in the trio today. These are in no particular order. Tanya Rasley of Canard Labs. It was taken on a d...

The Soap Bar: Little Pudge
http://thesoapbar.blogspot.com/2011/07/little-pudge.html
Thursday, July 14, 2011. Curat-Romania/ Curat Clean hit the floor running. Misty Renee Al-Eryani, the proprietor/soap maker/ owner has introduced her soaps with a unique bang and a flair. When I look at her soaps and packaging, I see independence, fun, freedom, creativity and love eeking. From every part of Misty's process. I don't know Misty, but I'd guess she's not the quiet and timid type that wouldn't fight for her beliefs. How do I get that from a website? Do you get that, too? Ok, moving on. This i...

The Soap Bar: June 2015
http://thesoapbar.blogspot.com/2015_06_01_archive.html
Sunday, June 28, 2015. Summer Loving. The Memories Don't Die. There were very few entries this month, but they were all wonderful and I thank you for participating. As with our latest challenges, I have asked for an explanation along with the soap you made, so that we, as artists, draw out our thoughts as we create and really get in touch with your art and your inner artist. It also makes the soap more interesting to look at as a viewers standpoint because the history adds depth and understanding. I took...

The Soap Bar: Shake It Up With Photos Skillz, Part One
http://thesoapbar.blogspot.com/2015/07/shake-it-up-with-photos-skillz-part-one.html
Saturday, July 4, 2015. Shake It Up With Photos Skillz, Part One. Some of you want to sell your soap but are having a hard time doing that because getting a good picture of them isn't easy. Photographs of your product are more important than you think. Images are what speaks to people more and more these days, because isn't the internet all imagery? We all have a comfort zone: Things we do that make us feel secure in our abilities. But in my opinion, that comfort zone needs a little shaking up. This trai...
