Yes, it takes forever to get to S. FL. I do like their products though!

No you can't make all the pretty swirls, but I love the marbling in HP soap. I have this Sweet Orange & Patchouli soap where you can see all of the orange color from the sweet orange oil swirled throughout. Quite pretty. You can't beat the cure time!

Didn't account for water & lye...duh! Thanks!

Super cute ideas! I would skip the tinkle one, even though I like it best. Boy, I wish I was in their class!

Hi All! I'm very confused about the measurements of my new crafter's choice silicone mold #1501. The website said that it will hold 40-44 ozs. I made a 44 oz batch intending to use one mold. I ended up using both molds and filled the molds almost to the top. I only used 1 oz of FO, 1 tbsp of...

LOL! Doesn't seem worth it!

Remember...KISS when making your first batch. Like TEG said I would make a very simple OO, CO, Palm soap, so you don't even have to use scents. It's cheap and makes a nice bar with a nice soap smell. Good luck and let us know how it went.

Thanks for the tip, Isg! I was thinking of making some cupcake soaps for the girls in the office for St. Valentine's Day. They all look good, but that first one on the left is perfection! Did you scent them with lemon? That is what I smelled when I saw them. I don't know why my mind does that.

Has there been a change in the water you are using?

I hear you! I get the same reaction here! It's like saying I make my soap with poop. So have I'm only making lard soap for myself, and when they ask about my beautiful skin I'll say...lard, baby, lard!

Welcome to the forum! There is another beekeeper here from S. FL. Maybe she will come around and say hi.

Welcome to the forum! Lots of nice, knowledgeable people here.

Congrats! Now the addiction begins! Don't forget to post a pic of the cut soap!

Your soaps turned out yummy looking! You got a nice swirl going and everything. Did you use Fudge Brownie from Crafter's Choice? How did it behave? I just bought it and LOVE the smell and will be using it this week.

Welcome! Beautiful soap! Do you presently sell or just make soap for yourself? I LOVE Genny's poo-bar!! I've been using it for several months and my hair has never felt or looked better. I did HP it, so mine wasn't as soft right from the mold and now it's nice & hard. I was out of avocado...

I make cakes...I have letter stamps...now why didn't I think to that!! All three soaps are gorgeous!

Too pretty to be a shampoo bar! Have you tried spraying the tops with alcohol right after you mold it? I've been able to control mine with that method.

Hey, what's wrong with the name Rose! :lol:

Mine are on my drying rack for about 6 wks, then they'll go into plastic shoe box with holes. This is how I store me other soaps.
