    Local colorant for cold process soap

    I am in Atlanta and use Aztec in Knoxville or Micas and More in Ft Lauderdale, Both ship super fast! We have one supply place in Norcross but I have never been there. They have very strange hours like Tues & wed 1-5 so thats just not doable for me.

    I buy sheets of PVC for customers every week (my day job) and it never occurred to me to use it soaping. Dang! yesterday I bought 3/8" 4x8 sheets for $65.00. Wonder if I could get my husband to cut it down..........;)

    My Lye water froze??

    It was 4.2 water and 4 lye so that was it. Thank you! I tossed it and started again. This time with not ice bath and it worked perfectly. I am trying to incorporate some goat milk so i discounted the water.

    Chalky Soap????

    I had no idea about the lye & glass thing. I was using plastic measuring cups but they all started splitting and cracking. So I started using glass ones with no trouble. Now I am scratching my head as what to use.......
