Look at the paper cups. You can see oil absorbed into the paper taking away part of the oils. The koi is adorable.

OMG! Thank you so much 🙈 I really appreciate all your kind words! I have noticed that the color does indeed affect the texture of the soap; reds/oranges cause a more soft, pliable result. Side note: If it's crumbly when you start to knead it it should be fine. Continue mashing it as much as you can, wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and give it a few more hours to over night - it will soften up or at least it does for me 😄 I absolutely LOVE the soap you made!! Gorgeous!

I suspect the paper cups absorbed some of your water or oils and dried the dough out ☹️

The entire little thing of Katie talking to herself/us about how it was ok that she didn't do a perfect job and with her acknowledging her strengths and weaknesses in a healthy or positive way made my night. I just finished a really hard lab report that I had been crying about the night before and now here she is, being so okay with failure and so ok with acknowledging the fact that she could and would grow as a soap maker and it feels like shes talking to me. It feels like she's telling me that I can mess up and still be fine. It just made me really happy. 9:25 to 10:17

I do a motion like you're snapping and rub the clay between your finger and your thumb. It will spread out and you just curl that around and keep doing that adding petals. Done it many of times with clay not so much with soap , though it does work

Yes, the paper cup storage was a big issue, and I’m sure all colorants could behave differently, but I’m surprised no one mentioned that she also used popsicle sticks to mix the smaller ones and the stick blender for the big ones. That could have accelerated trace and contributed to it as well...

When I make my soap dough, I place the saran wrap directly on the top of the dough so there is no air gap between the top of the dough and the rim of the container.

I'm not into soap making myself but love watching you and your results. While I'm watching you, in my head I'm actually thinking polymer clay and resin! Lol I sculpt with polymer clay and just starting to use resin. I love how positive you are even when you think you didn't do great because there is no such thing as failure! Their learning steps! If something doesn't work then way one feels it should, take a step back, think about what you did then think about ways to improve and make it better! I feel that applies to ANYTHING in life that we may come across. I'll be sure to try this with p polymer clay and resin! I think your soap turned out beautifully!

THAT IS SO ADORABLE!!!! Wow!!! FYI... you are ‘that person who’s so talented that after you watch their videos and see their soap you’re like huh... well... I am a little kid 🤣🤣’ More sculpting!! That was fun to watch!

Seeing the thumbnail: “Maybe I can do that!” Watching her make the soap clay: “lol That’s so much work and looks so expensive” Watching her make and assemble her masterpiece: “I was such a FOOL thinking I could do this”

Hi Katie great creation I love your willingness to try new things and teach us at the same time. I enjoyed this video very much. Hugs 🤗

This has got to be my favorite soap so far! So much detail. Beautiful!!

//FULL ON SQUEALING OVER HERE// Omg, your little fish and is koi pond were SO CUTE!!!! This inspires me SO MUCH!! 💙💙💙💙

Oh my gosh!! So pretty! It’s so intricate and time intensive... that kind of stuff relaxes me.

What a positive and beautiful channel to discover in times like these. 🥰 Thank you for being so sweet

Soap flower bouquet!! Have you seen them Katie? I saw some beautiful ones on goodsey in a box that you set on the counter as decoration & use individual petals to wash your hands or put flower petals in your bath. So beautiful! Since then I've googled them & I'm shook! Never knew they existed.

Wow!!! I'd love to see you do more of these, this is amazing! Great job

That is- that is just one of the cutest soaps I've ever seen, hands down. Adorable! 😊😍

Hey Katie. I just wanted to tell you that I really enjoy you sharing videos of you trying new things and learning as you go. It's the main reason I love your channel so much. You are not afraid of making mistakes and learning from them and sharing the process and it makes you so relatable. I really appreciate you ❤

I love when fish are encased in soap or candles and things especially orb ones lol my mind

Wow I just love this ❤️ I've been crafting in micro for a while, and this makes me want to combine making soap more than ever. You have such a creative mind. Thank you for always putting yourself out there how you do ❤️❤️❤️

This is an unbelievably beautiful bar of soap.

This is amazing! It was really wonderful to just watch your hands sculpt everything with the nice music! Really great job!

You are so talented and spread so much joy. Thank you!

Super duper cute, Katie!! You have inspired me! (And entertained me, too!) You are a delight!

It's so beautiful, I think you really should do this more often.

These videos have always helped to calm me down when im having a panic attack. Your voice is so soothing in a non sleepy way 😂 i love it and it makes me feel like a kid again like I’m at camp doing crafts with a cool counselor or a cool baby sitter

Hi Katie-I loved that you showed us something different in soap making and the obstacles you faced along the way . It turned out so pretty. We have seen many versions of your mixing different colours with matching soap decorations either high top or low top but now you have been branching out with other soap ideas. I love it and it shows new possibilities in soap making. Thank you so much!

This was so satisfying!!!!!!! Yes please sculpt more!

This is amazing! It looks like one of those Resin creations you currently see everywhere! I love this.

Me, an amateur soap maker, watching Katie on Royalty Soaps: 1:02

You are so insanely talented. Wow. Your videos have been very therapeutic. Keep up the great work.

I really liked the multi-dimensional aspects of the different embeds and bits inside the clear soap! It was really really neat 😊

That is just too stinking cute!!! Love it, but I can see how that would be very time consuming.

Gorgeous soap, would love to see more!

It looks so lovely, especially that koi fish was so well made. And the lily pads too

This little pond soap is so adorable! And you are so cheerful. I love watching your videos and I know nothing about soaps.

OOOooo! Katie! You could make soap clay turtles! Little folks would love them and those are pretty easy to sculpt.

I find every batch is so different and every mica or colorant is definitely different too. I put mine in baggies and let them sit if crumbly. If sticky I let it sit out a few minutes and then try again. Super cute soap! 😁

Do not ever say you are not talented!! That soap is super cute! You have a great mind fit imaging how things should go together. Thanks for sharing! You ROCK this soap stuff!

This is the best thing yet !!!! 😍 so cool!!

I’ve never been so early! Love your vids! ❤️

Never been this early for a video but this soap looks gorgeous

She did such amazing job with the Koi Fish Pond soap bar. So pretty. I definitely want!
