As most of you know, I have been hosting 11 weeks of Soap Challenges<\/a> on this blog, highlighting a different technique to try each week. The last Soap Challenge link-up just closed this morning, so I thought it would be fun to recognize the participants who made through at least 10 out of the 11 weeks of challenges – and posted their work!<\/p>\n

Here are some highlights from the participants who posted their work in 10 out of 11 challenges:<\/p>\n

There were so many more who participated – even those who were quietly making their soaps at home, or joined in late, or have gone back to the beginning after we finished. I’ve received so many lovely comments about the challenges, and am now compiling ideas for more challenges.<\/p>\n

UPDATE: And the rest, as they say, is history!! The Soap Challenge Club<\/u><\/a> has become an amazing opportunity for soapmakers who want to expand their skills. Each month a different technique or tutorial is presented and prizes from our sponsors can be earned by those who create outstanding soaps using the technique of that month.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
