Swirling techniques build on color theory to take your soap design to the next level. A swirl can include anything from a simple linear pattern to more elaborate and creative methods. Swirling creates movement, visual interest, and a polished finish for individual bars.
This technique is even a bit addicting! You may find that after exploring this chapter, you can’t help but think about how to incorporate more and more swirls into your soap designs. You’ll quickly discover that a swirl can be created without much effort; sometimes, bleeding colors will do the work for you and create a wonderfully watercolor-inspired design. Swirling is all about blurring the lines, so take that to heart when designing your soap.
