I don't even have space in my house to lay out 17 colors! Not to mention the skill, stamina or patience. Kudos!

There are ways to eliminate those white spots. After you disperse the TD in either water or oil, whisk it really well then pour it through the mesh of a tea ball. :) I keep a bottle with my TD already dispersed and just shake it up and squirt it straight into my batter. I also use it with a very...

I did one soap in a silicone liner that looks like it has a rind. I trimmed it off a couple, then decided I liked the effect. :)

The artistry some people put into their soaps just blows me away.

I do CPOP with my silicone molds and liners, and I've found that if I turn the heat really low, then off as soon as it goes into the oven, I don't have any bubbles. Also give it some good sprays with alcohol. I love CPOP, it produces such a gorgeous bar!

Thanks, guys! It is just weird. LOL!

I made a soap that was pretty much my regular recipe, but I changed out palm for GV shortening. I ran it through Soapcalc and printed the recipe. Since that time, I've made the same recipe a few times with no problem. Well, this batch is just odd. First, its very pretty, almost translucent...

It doesn't have to be white to be pretty! ITP is really my favorite swirl, always so unpredictable and unique. :)

I'm glad you're okay! I'm running into a lot of resistance in a group I belong to regarding labeling. This is exactly why we need to label and carry liability insurance, even if we're just hobby soapers. Many of the ingredients we use are allergans...milks, coconut, soy and so forth.

Hi, are there any updates on this process? I came across a bag of powdered pine resin and I'm not quite sure what to do with it. I do CP or CPOP soaping. Its a light gold powder and smells really lovely. :)

The recipe came up as a bad link. :(

Thank you! I'll go search.

I was wondering if this would work. I tried AC and got a dark grey soap and it does lather light grey. I have a client who wants a black soap and I haven't found a good method of doing it. To further complicate the design, the scent he's chosen doesn't discolor at all! LOL! I might add some...

My daughter's boyfriend trained her to use my soap. LOL! I think she was afraid of it and when I sent some bars over, he fell in love with a berrywine fragrance, so now she uses it. When I gift to friends, I give them and "Ugly" bar to actually use. Something flawed or a sample. That sometimes...

Can I use this in my cold process soap? http://www.ebay.com/itm/271434377034?_trksid=p2060778.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT If so, how do I prepare it? Thanks!

My 25 year old niece is developmentally disabled, and she did take a big bite out of a fresh bar of soap! LOL! She survived, though she was quite unhappy about it.

I write romance novels. ;)

They're certainly worth it! I love that I can tone it down or bring it up. The green and blue are just amazing together. :)

Maybe sometime we can have a meet-up, and do just that! I travel quite a lot so I'm in the Sacramento area a lot. :)

The pastel one really is interesting; as it gets used, the colors become brighter. But yes, I'm partial to the strong colors of the first one. :) Thanks!
