It’s time for our last Melt and Pour Challenge of the summer! We’ve seen some pretty incredible layered, embedded and swirled soaps. Are you ready for the next challenge?
Pssst… Check back later today to see the winners of the #Swirling Challenge!
Your mission (if you choose to accept it):
- Create a unique soap that follows the theme for the challenge of the week. This week we want to see soap sculpting in melt and pour!
- Post your pictures of your embedded melt and pour soap to Bramble Berry’s Facebook page during the entry period (July 23rd-August 6th).
- Your entry must have the hashtag of the week in order to be entered into the contest. This week, your picture must have the hashtag “#Soap Sculpting“
- At the end of the two weeks, Team Bramble Berry will pick our favorite soaps. The winners of the challenge will be featured on the Soap Queen Blog! You have until Monday, August 6th to post your Melt and Pour #Soap Sculpting pictures.
- You can submit up to three different pictures.

I posted 3 pictures ..but they were deleted of soap I sculpted with MP …with molds can you tell me why they were not added to the album? I thought I tagged them correctly
Courtney with Bramble Berry says
Hi Stephani! We chatted last Friday in a private message about the photos. Please let me know if you have any other questions =)

I really love these soapy challenges. I do not make “sculptural” soap as of yet so I will really enjoy seeing the submissions for this challenge!
haukur says
I am not getting this challenge 😉 something you can make out of mp soap with your hands not using molds ?
Becky with Bramble Berry says
Hi Haukur!
This is a challenge that you use M&P soap to ‘sculpt’ or create something that is beyond what a single mold can make. Here are some examples:
You Will Come Into a Fortune: http://www.soapqueen.com/bath-and-body-tutorials/melt-and-pour-soap/you-will-come-into-a-fortune-2/
Make Like a Tree and Leaf: http://www.soapqueen.com/bath-and-body-tutorials/melt-and-pour-soap/make-like-a-tree-and-leaf-2/
Soapy Nesting: http://www.soapqueen.com/bath-and-body-tutorials/melt-and-pour-soap/soapy-nesting-easter-soaps-part-2-2/
You can also use Flexy Fast to make your own mold out of an object at home and that can be entered into the challenge as well.

I hope this helps. =)
