I love this! My husband has been saying for years I need to make this and I just never have gotten around to it. If I do finally make it, I won't tell him you made it so it is cool to do - I'll just let him think it was all his idea!🤣
I LOVE that you’re keeping with the macrame theme and knotting with great functional knot. You’re awesome! Totally going with your method. Thank you for doing this. 💚
How very cool! We had soap on a rope when I was a kid! I'd forgotten about that! Lol! We had 3D shaped ones, a green frog and a pink pig! Gosh that brings back memories! A gorgeous soap, love the ombre. And as usual you are a fountain of knowledge. Thank you so very much for sharing! 😊
For me personally, I enjoy the interaction (if you can call it that) with a face instead of just a voice. Other people may feel different. The channels I enjoy most are the lives. But there I would suggest if you want to do that, look at some big name live channels, not news. They all have moderators for the chat and interact with their subscribers. The easiest kind of live I've seen is the good old q and a. And now I must hide this video or someone male will be buying... Lol
I've been wanting to do this! Your soaps on ropes are beautiful! Thank you for this video. It is so inspiring and full of soap making wisdom. Thanks again, and God bless you! 🙏
Every video a new technique and learning opportunity! Thanks for sharing with us all Lisa! Just love the wisdom you are so willing to share with everyone. It’s educational, organized, specific, detailed, relaxing, and all around enjoyable to watch you. ❤️
You really are an angel. I can do this on my one and only assessment but I had no idea how to. Looks like I'm going to be doing lots of practice soaps on ropes 😂. Thank you so much.
Thank you Lisa for this great video. I had a lot of questions about making this kind of soap and you answered all of them. Also your soap is gorgeous ❤️
Hi, I was also a child in the 70’s and I definitely remember soap on a rope. I too also like to set the rope in the soap rather than drill a hole as I thought the same thing before I even made my first soap on a rope, that the soap would eventually break away from the rope. I saw someone in a video drilling a hole into a melt and pour soap and asked the question, wouldn’t that break off. I was told that the best method to make soap on a rope was with cold process. I said, but you used melt and pour? I didn’t ask anymore questions after that. Anyway, I have a soap on a rope made recently from a melt and pour soap base and am yet to test it out but I do have a cold process soap on a rope that I made last November and it is still on the rope. ☺👍💜🧼
I think whether the soap is melt and pour of cold process can just be a personal preference, but yes, like you i believe the rope should be the last thing left after all the soap has gone
Hi Lisa, thank you so much for your videos, they are really inspiring. I wonder where people buy such handy soap mould? Are they custom made? It is an interesting technique of making sope on robe, unfortunately, there is nothing to tight to in my ordinary moulds.
Fanfrickentastic! I love, love, love this soap Lisa! Thank you so much for sharing! I always love your ombre soaps! Quick question... do you think that Rum Bay fragrance is a masculine scent or unisex? Someone told me it smelled like a barbershop and it crushed my soul like someone miss stepped during a Mexican Hat Dance.
This look so good - thank you for detailed explanation. I do have a question - do you cover them to avoid soda ash? I'm wondering how to cover my soap with the ropes hanging over the side!
I love this technique, what a great video. Can i ask if you think single or 3-4 strand chord works best. (which stays twisted the best). Would also love to see you do a review of FO in the uk and which work best in CP soap. Thanks again for another very informative video.
I have used the cotton macrame or the cotton washing line cord. One is my gardeners soap that hangs on the hose bib. The cotton dries nicely and it’s biodegradable. And I have gone completely blank on what the name of your “flat” knot is, I think it’s a kind of reefing knot but don’t remember!!
greetings from Houston. Your work is amazing. I have a question: how much lye solution can I prepare and how long can I storage it? How and how long can I storage it. Thanks for sharing your knowledge. Bless you!
You can prepare as much as you like. Your need to keep it sealed in good air tight containers and obviously stored safely and in a cool environment. I tend to make enough for about 1 month's worth of soap making at a time. I put mine in 1 litre bottles so that I'm not letting air into to much lye each time I open the bottle, the other bottles stay sealed until I need them.
Please madam, after adding colors and perfumes in the soap and leaving it to rest for a month or more, does it become toxic and all the additives oxidize?
I always thought the point of soap on a rope is to go around your neck? Comes in handy in camp showers/baths in creeks/lakes, or...in prison. Then my true crime brain concocts several crimes that can be done with soap on a rope, or accidents.
@@IDreamInSoap most of what I see now is the shorter loop sort, which again, is handy in the bush for camping, hunting, etc, as it goes around the wrist, and you're less likely to lose it permanently if using in a river or lake, should you drop it.
