    Print your own labels?

    I also do the labels inside and wrap outer.. cleaner look I think and if you're doing a show you can just take the outer off and rewrap what you don't sell. :)

    Soaping trigger a migraine?

    Oh yes.. big time migraine person here and I'm very sensitive to fragrances. Funny Obsidian mentioned lemongrass because thats the one one that gives me the fastest headache.. just opening the bottle can cause it and if I work with it I get a full on migraine. I don't even have it in my EO...

    Print your own labels?

    Print all my labels and use Maestro. I like having the ability to print when I need since I have quite a few products and print daily.

    Has anyone used Cleopatra's Choice?

    gah.. well next time I'll go there.. I used the other place to get free ship and the 20% off. Next I'll use San Fran since it would just take 1 day to me. Thanks! I didn't realize the larger bags were also 'fine' grain so only looked at the green bag from when I searched for it. thanks! eta...

    Has anyone used Cleopatra's Choice?

    I did look there actually but the price is quite a bit more.. even without the sale price. :/ Their reviews on the salt are good, just hate slow shipping so never like to try new places. LOL

    Has anyone used Cleopatra's Choice?

    Curious if anyone has bought from here? Not likely since they seem limited on items, but I need more dead sea salt asap and WSP is out again. Plus Cleo's has a sale and free ship right now. Just not sure how fast they ship or if their products are on the up

    Brown Kraft Labels

    Here's mine and you can see it bends nicely. Just make sure you order for laser.

    Brown Kraft Labels

    Yep.. I use tons of their labels and actually just got my normal soap labels in the craft to test out the color. I couldn't wrap my head around a sticky craft and how it would feel/bend so they sent me some free sheets. I like the feel and look. :)

    yellow lye water

    Yep yep.. sugar in all batches turns it yellow. In my non sugar it stays clear.

    Do swirled soaps really sell better?

    Yeah it just depends on why the person buying the soap.. is buying the soap. I have some customers who are totally natural and want nothing but natural colors and essential oils, while others like natural soaps to avoid chemicals like SLS but are ok with Mica to get some fun colors. I think they...

    The cat ruined my soap!

    Oh that's a bummer. If mine isn't in the fridge to stall gel it's in my oven away from small hands and animals. Just a nice habit to get into I think and even my larger loaf fits there. I've put it on top of the fridge also if the oven is in use. :)

    What's this cream-like goo through the middle of the loaf?

    Make them stained glass and fill with clear M&P. :) As for what it is.. I have no input other than what's been said. sorry.

    Bulk Apothecary FO sale

    Well I'm one of their bad reviewers from the 9 pages of negative they have on yelp.. of course yelp has those hidden unless you ask to see them. Not sure why. My review was 2012 but I've tried them again as of last month and only one problem out of my 3 orders. I will still order from them on...

    infusing botanicals help!!

    I have some here but I prefer to only use dried I buy for the reasons Dahila mentioned.. fresh with water content I just don't like to deal or worry with. Dried has always worked very well for me with great results in whatever I'm doing whether it's a tea, infusion, etc. so I stick with it. :)...

    Why do you prefer HP or CP?

    CP - I can't get past the look of HP and how little I can do with it design wise. I'm sure some can do great things with it but it was just too much work for the dozen or so I tried.

    First attempt at CP cupcakes

    oh no.. clean up and make them muffins! :)

    infusing botanicals help!!

    I infuse and tincture quite a bit with around 50+ herbs here. lol My favorite is Calendula.. smell is just amazing. Your best way to infuse is with time, in a jar, near a window... but I know that's not always practical. So IMO second best is in a mason jar in low heat simmering water for...

    Hot process soap seems sticky when wet...

    Interesting recipe.. I can't say I've ever used this assortment of butters and at this level without coconut oil, and I never use PKO so it's hard to relate it for me personally, sorry. My first thought was even with that amount of PKO it seemed soft but the numbers are all in line. I'll be...
