I haven't updated my blog for a while, although I have a lot of things to share! I have been experimenting with some new soap techniques, but today I'd like to tell about my meeting with Tatsiana Serko, known as steso. In September I visited her in California and we spent a wonderful week together!
We walked on the beach near the Cliff House & Sutro Baths:
We took a ride on the famous San Francisco cable cars:
we walked all the way to Pier 39:
and visited a lot of other places! You can see some other pictures on my Instagram.
Tatsiana is a wonderful person, very nice, relaxing, creative, generous, thoughtful, and she is a fun to be with! I really enjoyed spending time with her... And course we had been making soap!
Here are 2 cold-process rimmed soap we made together. The first is scented with BrambleBerry's Cucumber Oak:
Not long before my trip to California I saw on pinterest this amazing yellow and black soap by La Perle. I fell in love with it! Naturally, me and Tatiana tried to recreate this soap technique, :) I call it a traveling faux funnel swirl. The soap scented with brambleberry's Kumquat was our first attempt at this technique - it's not perfect, but not too bad either!
I also got a lot of gifts from Tatsiana! I will show them a bit later, they deserve a separate post! :)
