I'm happy & excited because I got my soap swap box today! Thank you Terri! The box is so pretty. I was undecided for most of the day on opening it today or on Christmas. I finally decided that I'm going to open it Christmas morning.

I agree with Dennis. My BIL is a truck driver. He does local (in state) but they're always looking for cross country drivers. I hope things go well for you and your family.

Maybe you could adhere a small top, like a water bottle cap to the inside of your mold to create the indentation?

Today I made labels and started packaging a Christmas order for a friend. I really like how my labels turned out! [emoji1]

I just found a simple recipe at kolyanaturals.com: 1 cup goat's milk powder (I plan to substitute regular powdered milk) 1/2 cup arrowroot powder 1/2 cup baking 20 drops of essential oil Directions: mix ingredients together well. Store in a glass jar. Add 3-5 tablespoons to bath as the water is...

I like using castor oil as my "luxury" oil. It seems to add something that I can't get from other oils. I've used pomace before. It is from the last pressing and to me it traces quicker than EVOO. I had been using this from Amazon. The product description had it listed as EVOO. It wasn't until...

SoapyQueen15, please don't be discouraged by the initial comments. This is a good forum and no, they don't usually sugar coat things but it's not to be mean. The fact that you don't know things like soap making terms, oil characteristics, testing, etc means that you should study more until you...

It's been a while since I made my dog soap, it was a big batch and I no longer have my dog. Commercial shampoos made by fur-baby itch terribly. I remember that I used apple cider vinegar to reduce the ph, tea tree EO, coconut oil, castor oil, palm oil and EVOO infused with licorice root, neem...

Is this a hot process or cold process soap? If it's hot process, I'd say those were overcooked or cooled bits of soap from the sides of the pot. If it's cold process and it seized, I'd guess it's just pieces of the seized batter. Hopefully one of the more experienced soapers will chime in with...

Congratulations on your sales! Do your daughter or son-in-law help out when you do shows? If not, maybe they could help set up/tear down or work the table and give you a little more free time with your hubby?

I love the blue tub in the Soaptopia pic! Those are all very creative displays.

[emoji23][emoji23][emoji23][emoji23] tired of looking at soap pics lol! There's no such thing!

I believe I had that book too but I can't remember where it is. Have you checked your local library? If your library doesn't have it, they may be able to request it from another library. There's also half.com. I found a replacement for a out of print cook book that I once lost.

I'm so frustrated with Amazon's delivery service. I live in an apartment building. Our front door had been broken for the last 4 months so entering the building is not an issue. This is why I was very confused when I got email from Amazon stating that my Crock-Pot duo and other items were...

This morning I cut the soaps I made yesterday. They smell wonderful but I'm a little disappointed in my oranges. The orange satsuma is supposed to be 3 shades of orange and a yellow. All of the micas were from Nurture's except for the red I used in the cranberry currant. The cranberry currant is...
