The change in packaging and in soap bar size makes sense with what's going on with the economy at the moment. I'm looking forward to the follow-up video. I'm sure if you put them up for sale on your site, they'll most likely fly off the shelf...lol. I know I'd definitely buy both bars. Tallow? I'm all in!
I love your soap studio. Nice seeing the behind the scenes look at where you pack the items etc. You are definitely one of my favorite soap makers of all time. Keep doing what you're doing and I'll keep buying 👍😁
Looking forward to seeing part 2. Your soap studio is looking great, you have a wonderful collection of everything a soaper could want. I'm so glad that you are finally able to get on with life without the stress you've been through. It's wonderful to see you smiling again. ❤️ 😍😍
Holly is the best soap maker ever. She was one of the first soapers I ever ordered from and was impressed from the very beginning. Love how they lather and smell. She’s the best. 😍 She inspired me to make soap a long time ago.
I like the paper wrapped, it’s less to throw away, and I’ve used the papers to wrap other things or to put in my winter clothing storage, the light sent is lovely
Besides your fabulous products, I enjoy watching you because you take safety into consideration;something not all creators do. Your studio looks great. You are an awesome teacher and I can’t wait to buy this soap.
Loved watching this video and your walk through of your gorgeous studio!! My husband is having my small workshop built this year at our cottage here where we spend 3 seasons now. Winters are too brutal here so we go back to the city in November. I'm really excited to have my own space! Yay!!
I am such a mentalist when it comes to every part of my life accept this soap making area lol. I have embed molds that I know I will never use but for some reason can't get rid of they take up so much space it's ridiculous and so am I. Thank you for the tour and the soap turned out beautiful Ms. Holly.
Love your soap studio Holly and I couldn't hear the fabulous new air conditioning unit, you deserve to be comfortable while your making your products cause your amazing and so hard working.You really have gone all out with this year's Rainbow Extravaganza. Thank you for sharing the recipe I'm going to give it a try as I haven't made soap for a couple of months due to the anxiety and stress certain people have put me through, anyways enough said about that topic I refuse to let them get me down anymore, thank you for all your videos I just love listening to your voice. 🤗💖
Holly, Blessing and Merry Christmas to you and your family! You are so creative and a special in your recipes and training. I am working on a recipe that I hope to make very soon. If it turns out fabulous, which the soapcalc seems to suggest, I will be definitely sharing it with you. Love watching your videos and do not want to sell, but do this as a hobby only. I am 75-1/2 and too old to be starting a business. Love to you!
I love your studio! I use beef tallow in all my soaps except for your recipe that you gave on here, I really love that one by the way 💙, thank you! The tallow makes a nice hard bar of soap and I can unmold it faster, plus it helps in conditioning too. I can't wait for part 2 of this video 😃. Thanks Holly 😊.
Hi Holly, a little down time from all those fragrance oil from the 🌈 released will be great. So Essential oil great way to relax and making simple soap. Yes some time y'all need your own batches soap. Y'all need soap as well. Thank you for giving us a peek into your studio. Congratulations on getting a new cool system you really needed it in order to work comfortable for you.
Thank you so much for making a tallow soap, I love them! It's nice to see a popular soap maker using tallow which I found to be a tough sell. Love your videos and your chats while cutting your soap! The cut video was great too. Thank you for all you do for the soaping community. S
I’ve been using tallow in my cps for the past little bit now and it truly does make for an AMAZING SOAP! It’s so nice to see other people talking about how amazing tallow soap is.
Thank you so much, relaxing and beautiful as always. I always add Cedarwood to my lavender essential oil to anchor the scent. Peppermint is my to go during summer. Love the cooling sensation specially with the heat here in AZ!
Great video & recipe! I love that you don’t include lye and water amounts. It reinforces that people MUST use a soaping calculator to complete the formulation. Great safety measure!
Ive been using bear tallow. Its amazing. My son hunts and uses everything from the animal. At first I felt sad because I love bears.. but the soap is luxurious and my family and friends love it .
Love seeing your studio. It's so nice and organized. I got my items I ordered from the Rainbow Extravaganza (maybe my order is one of those shown in the beginning?) and I can't decide which one is my favorite. They all smell so good. The smell opening my mailbox was just heavenly.
Those bottles are good by themselves to make a 50/50 mix. Thats what I use them for. I heard the amount for olive oil. With that amount this recipe should have made 60 bars of soap if your cutting them at 5oz bars. I bet you had a lot of fun doing that. I actually love to cut soap. Making it too.
Hi there. My name is Monica and I’m from Colombia 🇨🇴, I’m a soap maker too and when I found your video it shocked me. Hahahaha. The oils you use in your oils blend are the same I’m being for about 2 years I add sunflower oil and shea butter to the blend and is amazing. Tallow has wonderful properties for the skin.
Great to see you using this underappreciated oil. I make all my soaps with 28% beef tallow and 28% lard. They make beautiful soaps with all the qualities I want in a finished bar, and it's so white I don't even need TD (I hate TD).
Yes! Tallow is my favorite now. I will make all our home soaps with tallow. I haven't tried lard yet but I need to. Someday when I can make soap again!
I am a hobby soap maker. Thank you for sharing about Bulk Natural Oils, I just received my order from them and was very impressed with the quality of my order. I use WSP in the beginning but because of the cost I am looking elsewhere, I compared what I bought with WSP price and even with shipping I saved quite a bit of money, and I received my order in 3 day, I live in Ohio. Thank you for sharing and helping us out, I have been watching you from the beginning of my soap making journey!
I made tallow soft it was already 54 conditioning and I add milk it’s so creamy looking I like it I get all my oils from the same place they do have good prices I soap at 33 too lol 😂
Great video! How do you learn what essential oils work good together?? I'm confused on essentials on what works good with each other. Any pointers?? Thanks so very much! Love your videos!
I don't think I have done an actual tutorial but I have shown it on occasion. This video is what pops into my head first: th-cam.com/video/KLOk7ENvVIo/w-d-xo.html
The idea of tallow in soap kind of grosses me out but I love the look of these soaps. They’re so beautifully simple and luxurious, creamy looking soaps. They are inviting.
We picked up our order in Kansas City. Unfortunately, they just relocated to Chicago so having a fairly local supplier was very short lived. I'll probably just go back to Soapers Choice.
Have you ever made soap from bear fat? In Elizabethan times in England, it was very common to use bear oil as a hair styling product. (For those who couldn't afford bear fat, dog oil was available. That was what happened to the strays rounded up by dog catchers back then.) I assume it must have some nice qualities for hair and skin?
That's so sad that you experienced that. Many people use animal fats in soaps. I have never had any negativity from it. I have a new tallow soap video going up today.

Yeah, I think pretty packaging is so overrated the true beauty is the soap or whatever. people can always wrap with paper than pretty tissue paper over the thicker paper.
I love tallow soaps! They make such nice hard bars and are so conditioning! Thank you for sharing your recipe.

I second the paper wrapping.
Oh that is a good idea!!
Two of my favorite fragrances! I love simple soap, easy to make and easy on the skin! I also love sweet orange, lime and lemon! Yum!

Hi from Florida! I make tallow soaps which I love! I use 30% in most of my recipes. Your batter look beautiful. Can’t wait to see part two!
I use 90%, but I’m thrilled to see anyone using any amount of tallow! It makes such a lovely bar of soap!
Besides your fabulous products, I enjoy watching you because you take safety into consideration;something not all creators do. Your studio looks great. You are an awesome teacher and I can’t wait to buy this soap.

I'd love to buy a bar or two of this tallow soap! It looks so luscious and creamy! 💕
So excited for your minisplit. Will be so nice for you!

i was just re-watching your soap making videos and then you posted!! I love your longer videos so much, awesome soap, lots of love from Brazil! 🇧🇷❤
Ha! I like watching Holly's older videos as well. I sometimes watch them for their nostalgia effect. 😊
Holly, Blessing and Merry Christmas to you and your family! You are so creative and a special in your recipes and training. I am working on a recipe that I hope to make very soon.

Tallow lover here. Used on body and lip balms as well along with bison tallow
Your studio is awesome, love it.😎👌❤️

Thank you! It seems like the tallow had a good general reception here but I would think sales would be tough too.
I’ve been using tallow in my cps for the past little bit now and it truly does make for an AMAZING SOAP! It’s so nice to see other people talking about how amazing tallow soap is.
It sure does! We're using these batches now.
Thanks Holly! I really enjoyed your video. Can't wait for part 2.
Another lovely video. Thanks so much for the studio tour. I never tried soaping with tallow. Very interesting!!!
Thanks for giving me a nice studio tour. I should buy some of your soaps
Thank you so much, relaxing and beautiful as always. I always add Cedarwood to my lavender essential oil to anchor the scent. Peppermint is my to go during summer. Love the cooling sensation specially with the heat here in AZ!
I would love the option of some smaller bars, I want to try every soap you make!
Great video & recipe! I love that you don’t include lye and water amounts. It reinforces that people MUST use a soaping calculator to complete the formulation. Great safety measure!
Looking forward to this one Holly when I’m home & settled! 💛
Enjoy all that you create. Wonderful set up. You do make a lot of soaps and other goodies. Wish you the best
Great role modeling/inspiration.
Thank you Leslie!
Great video Holly! Thanks for sharing ☺️
I have a split unit in my shop and I love it!
I absolutely love your channel. It’s so relaxing. Thank you for all you do
Thank you!
Ive been using bear tallow. Its amazing. My son hunts and uses everything from the animal. At first I felt sad because I love bears.. but the soap is luxurious and my family and friends love it .
Oh how interesting! I am glad that every part is going to use.
Do you sell it? I would love to try bear fat soap.
I don’t blame you on changing your packaging. The boxes are beautiful but with the cost of goods going up, I’d make cuts where I could!
Looking forward to seeing part two .looks very creamy and silky x
Thank you Jayne! They're so good!
I just love the creamy colour of that Peppermint one!! Looks edible!!!
Love seeing your studio. It's so nice and organized.
I got my items I ordered from the Rainbow Extravaganza (maybe my order is one of those shown in the beginning?) and I can't decide which one is my favorite. They all smell so good. The smell opening my mailbox was just heavenly.
I’m so glad you are getting some better air in your shop Holly! Way to go!
Thank you! It's AMAZING!!
I think smaller bars and paper packaging is smart. Prices for products are crazy and this makes sense 😊
I second this.
Thank you Jahmelle! I am definitely going to go with some smaller bars for a while. My new multi-cutter was delivered today.
Welcome to Tallow Soaping!! I love it although i use 40% tallow in my soaps. It is such a wonderful ingredient :)
I'm more inclined to use tallow soaps. The more tallow the better, as far as I'm concerned. 😊
I use it in all of my soaps and moisturizer. It is heavenly! 😇
Thx for the video and recipe, Holly!! The bars look amazing!! Can’t wait to see them unmolded!! Hugs from
Argentina!!
Thank you Ramiro!
Looks amazing. Wow. Welll done.
Thank you Elaine!
I bet it was so nice to make these more straightforward soaps after rainbow extravaganza!!!
It was so refreshing! I love rainbows and such but I always need to go back to the basics after working with them.
Thanks for sharing the suppliers and your recipe
Thank you Linda!
Those bottles are good by themselves to make a 50/50 mix. Thats what I use them for.
I heard the amount for olive oil. With that amount this recipe should have made 60 bars of soap if your cutting them at 5oz bars. I bet you had a lot of fun doing that. I actually love to cut soap. Making it too.

Hello Monica! Tallow is so amazing!
Wow they look so creamy and beautiful 😍
Thank you! They are extra creamy!
I have been wanting to try that!
Hope all is well and you're enjoying the new home front. Miss watching the videos and learned a lot from watching them. :)
Thank you Karen! We are getting settled in on the new property and hope to start building the new workspace soon.
Great to see you using this underappreciated oil. I make all my soaps with 28% beef tallow and 28% lard. They make beautiful soaps with all the qualities I want in a finished bar, and it's so white I don't even need TD (I hate TD).
Yes! Tallow is my favorite now. I will make all our home soaps with tallow. I haven't tried lard yet but I need to. Someday when I can make soap again!
What is TD
It's Titanium Dioxide.
I've used lard since the beginning I haven't tried tallow yet but want to
I use lard in my soaps and I love it. I really need to try tallow!
Nice! I need to try lard someday!
You are going to need a bigger place soon it look so cramp and I can't wait to see the new soaps you make
I love using tallow in my soaps! I use 26%
Very nice! The tallow is great.
We just got minnie splits too...yes amazing.. so sick of the window air-conditioning..we have electric heat..ugh..
They are so amazing! I was going in and out of the attic today and it just revved up and kept it nice and cool.
❤❤❤ look great
Thank you!

That's great! I wish they hadn't moved away from Kansas City as now we can't pick up orders anymore. Oh well.
That's why Granny made her's out by the cement pond in a big ol iron pot.
That does make sense. Haha!
If you decide to sell them, I’d buy some to try it out!
I made tallow soft it was already 54 conditioning and I add milk it’s so creamy looking I like it I get all my oils from the same place they do have good prices I soap at 33 too lol 😂
Oh yes the tallow is so creamy especially with milk.
Great video! How do you learn what essential oils work good together?? I'm confused on essentials on what works good with each other. Any pointers?? Thanks so very much! Love your videos!
Thank you Lisa! I would go explore the website eocalc.com. They have great blends and usage rates.
I would luv to see a video of you opening the found in your bulk supplies unknown Bramble Berry boxes.
I am still planning on it for sure. Haha! Woops.
any chance you have a video with step-by-step instructions for lining a mold?
I don't think I have done an actual tutorial but I have shown it on occasion. This video is what pops into my head first: th-cam.com/video/KLOk7ENvVIo/w-d-xo.html
@@moriversoap thank you so much idk why but I struggle with it
Boxes are outrageous. I'm going to paper.
I'm allergic to coconut. Can I simply replace that portion with tallow?
Yes you can, or any other oil you like.
The best soap is made with tallow.
The idea of tallow in soap kind of grosses me out but I love the look of these soaps. They’re so beautifully simple and luxurious, creamy looking soaps. They are inviting.
I was right there with you. I don't think I can do lard yet. LOL But they are really lovely bars!
👏🏻💜
How is shipping from bulk natural oils?
We picked up our order in Kansas City. Unfortunately, they just relocated to Chicago so having a fairly local supplier was very short lived. I'll probably just go back to Soapers Choice.
What is the difference between tallow & lard
They are both rendered fat. The tallow can be from cattle, deer, bear, etc., and the lard is from a pig.
Have you ever made soap from bear fat?
In Elizabethan times in England, it was very common to use bear oil as a hair styling product. (For those who couldn't afford bear fat, dog oil was available. That was what happened to the strays rounded up by dog catchers back then.) I assume it must have some nice qualities for hair and skin?
How much sodium lactate? Beautiful soap. As always!!!
I used 3% in this batch. It's calculated off of the oil weight but I considered part of the water portion.
How much lye, I couldn't hear what was said?
First 🥇
I started making soap with tallow and lard and I find they make the best soap. I know everyone is different though
That sounds great Linda!
i am to scared to use any animal fats in my soaps last time I used animals people destroyed my booth they were arrested and charged.
That's so sad that you experienced that. Many people use animal fats in soaps. I have never had any negativity from it. I have a new tallow soap video going up today.
@@moriversoap cool i love your videos so much they make my day a lot better.
