I do gel for the good portion of my soaps. I’m am going to try that distilled water method! Will that help still if they’ve cured 4 weeks already?? :)

Yea as much as I try to embrace it on some soaps, others I just wanted the pretty tops I had intended! Lol it’s the type A in my I guess haha. I may have to learn to embrace it if all else fails. The ash loves my soaps! Lol

Thank you. I have tried the steam method in the past but I was getting sweaty soap before getting rid of the ash, I was using a boiling water method though lol. Didn’t go over well. Could just be that I’m a spaz. I should try again.

So I’ve done the spray with alcohol method.. And it’s just not working. Is there something else I can do to avoid soda ash? Please? It doesn’t happen on all soaps with similar or the same recipe. I just don’t get it :oops: Top photo is a goats milk soap, the bottom is not. Both have soda ash. I...

That was an incredibly helpful post thank you! Looking for some new suppliers!

Hmmm so you never microwave in these? I usually use the same rubbermade microwave safe items but they are getting worn. So I picked these up. I’m trying to limit the amount of dishes guilty. But I want to keep it safe. I’ll spend the money and keep doing what I am if needed.

Oh yea I just peaked while reading your post. Looks like a fun slide for oils. Lol I’ll def keep that in mind. I usually just keep it to small batches. But I do double from time to time. Thank you for your response. I plan to soap after work tonight and was nervous to put these to use! I def...

I’ve always been afraid to use these in fear of melting them but I’ve finally found them at the dollar tree. I’ve seen so many videos with soapers using these mixing bowls.. but now that I’ve purchased them I see they say not safe for microwave use.. Sooo wouldn’t that make it unsafe for mixing...

Thanks!

OooOooOoo looks like an aliennn lol

Not working ugh. I never had this problem before all my photos are the same size so weird. Haha well restarting my phone apparently solved the problem this is the soap that reminds me of two angels. I don’t know maybe it’s just me. But I see it and it’s special to me. It’s like they’re...

There’s one more I want to post. From these cuts it’s my favorite. It reminds me of two angels for some reason. And after recent events in life it feels kind of special.. It says my file is too large for the server to handle right now so I’ll try again another time =) Thank you :)

I’m calling it “first snow” lol. I love themmmm :rolleyes: Great molds but I only liked one flake out of the whole mold selection. And boy were they are to get out! The mold I have the flakes were really thick so I actually sliced them to be this size. I didn’t realize how thick they’d be. I...

‘‘Tis the season to get ready for the season! Lol I’m so excited for this soap I’ve been planing in my mind. Finally got around to it last night after prepping the embeds over the weekend. :) I’ll update once it’s cut! I hope I didn’t mud up the innards bahahahaha. I went a little nutty with the...

Lol I was in bed writing all that after a looooong shift last night haha. I only used 2 tsp of honey. But I did add it at a very light trace.. so that may have been my problem. :( I am going to read into what @SaltedFig wrote about and the blog she posted of and def try this method for my next...

o_O Soo I soaped at around 109 degrees. I usually go hotter but knowing I was adding honey I was trying to keep it low. I left mold in freezer overnight! Wrapped with ice even! And still couldn’t beat that gel! Lol! DAG NABBIT BATMAN :rolleyes: Anyway. This is some blueberry oatmeal and...

Thank you so much..

My sister is hanging in there, and I wanted to thank everyone for their kind heartfelt support through a very hard time.. she is healing body, mind and soul as much as time allows.. Time is that tricky ingredient to healing though. As frustrating as it is.. It’s going to take time. Here’s the...

Hi guys thank you all for your loving support for a perfect stranger in this crafty soap world of ours.. I just wanted to update you on the situation and share with you the cuts I cut. I am in Arizona now. I took the soonest flight I could and took an unpaid leave of absence from work to be...

Thank you all for your kind comments and much needed prayers. My sister is still waiting a very detailed hysterectomy. There is a large team of doctors that need to be involved in this surgery so it’s very scary. They have pushed it til tomorrow so it’s like agony all around... they have always...
