Melt & Pour Soap: Electric "Pop" Colors

Come join Debbie Chialtas of Soapylove for brand-new glycerin soap projects! Debbie is our Melt & Pour Soap expert from Southern California, and she's constantly coming up with beautiful & innovative ways to use Melt & Pour soap. She's taught at The Nova Studio for years, each time encouraging & inspiring her students. Debbie is also the author of a book called SoapyLove: Squeaky Clean Projects using Melt & Pour Soap, a beautiful book full of color tutorials that allows readers to replicate the amazing results Debbie is known for. Come to this brand-new Melt & Pour soap crafting class to feed your creative desires, and pick up a signed copy of her book while you're here!

Turn the volume way up for this totally awesome class! Glycerin soap is easy, fun, & a great medium to play with neon and super bright colors. We'll use a variety of molds, supplies, & techniques to create 3 rockin' designs!

The projects to be covered are:

1) Pop Star Soap: This soapy pop is truly fit for stardom. These pops feature bright, crystal clear colors and super sparkly stars. You'll love the "big reveal" when you unmold them!

2) I Heart Soap: Learn the intricacies of detailed molds with this fun project. You will be amazed by how perfect your soaps will be! Choose from several neon colors perfect for multi-colored designs.

3) Retro Robot Soap: This project not only appeals to boys (particularly tricky customers!), but has a cool retro vibe. You'll get to play with dissolving paper, clam shell molds, & learn my secret trick to a perfect color fade!

Each student will take home detailed handouts explaining the techniques used in the class to make each product and 2 Pop Star Soaps, 2 "I Heart Soaps", & 2 Retro Robot Soaps, all packaged & ready to give or use. Note: Debbie uses cosmetic-grade, skin-safe Fragrance Oils in her classes.
