About the Model

I designed this soap dish to showcase both beauty and practicality. The intricate heart-shaped border adds character but can result in slight variations in thickness, which may show minor imperfections in some prints. These subtle details are usually hidden within the gentle slopes of the border, giving each print a unique, handmade look. If you prefer a more streamlined finish, consider tweaking the slicer settings for the middle section or exploring my cleaner models:

• Soap Dish with Squiggle Border and Hearts
• Soap Dish with Hearts Pattern
