Monarch Butterfly - 408 gm oils
Solid Soap · NaOH · 408 g oil load · 5% superfat · 3 views · 0 saves
Using up sesame oil. Colors: Orange, yellow, black, brown, TD Pour dark on far left with mold tilted; Pour white to hold dark in place (black) Pour colors alternating alongside dark & onto dark; pour white to keep colors on the far left, until mold is full, Butterfly swirl. Heat in microwave oven to simulate CPOP, then insulate overnight in drawer at Home2Suites near IAH airport. Damn! It overheated in the Microwave oven at 3rd time doing 30 second burst. Should have stopped after the 2nd 30 seconds. It boiled a bit over. At least no mess in MW because it was well wrapped in Saran Wrap, but the top looks bubbly & brown instead of the pretty top swirl. The inside will be a surprise.
