10 easy soap techniques that aren't swirls
When I was a beginner soaper, it seemed like all the tutorials online were only interested in teaching in-the-pot swirls, hanger swirls, and drop swirls — so basically, swirls.
As someone who had enjoyed baking for years, I wanted to do more than mix something in a bowl and dump it into a mold. There's nothing wrong with a simple swirl, but I wanted a challenge.
If you feel comfortable with basic soap recipes and don't mind messing up while you learn, I highly recommend trying one of these fun, non-swirl techniques for your next batch.
