If you are a Melt and pour Soap maker, you may want to check out this project from The Soap Queen called Seascape Melt and Pour Soap.
According to The Soap Queen, the key to this project is a good understanding of how melt and pour soap behaves at different temperatures. The hotter it is, the thinner it is. As it cools, it becomes thicker and more viscous. When swirling soap around 135 degrees F, the colors are more likely to completely blend and the swirl becomes more muddled. If the soap is too cool, you end up with large clumps and layers of soap.
