I wonder if the epsom salts in soap might lead to sweating though....

My goats always said Maa not Baa (sheep baa) LOL. Milk Ma Soaps?

Good point about the stinging...I was wanting to do sugar first and thats a great reason to keep doing it!

Just that LOL-My normal label with the scent name as "Sampler pack" and a freestanding sign that says "Try several great scents at once with our sampler pack! Also great for traveling and guest rooms". . I now use the boxes with windows so I'll put the colorful ones in the middle to be the most...

I'm in Florida, my growing season is in weeks due to the heat and bugs. So far the only thing that survived this far is...broccoli! I was suprised. The bok choy greens types do the best until the bugs move in. My "guest" cherry tomatoes (darn squirrels) went about 100 tomoatoes each before...

I actually ended up changing my sale bin up because too many sales came out of it...originally I was using full sized bars that just didn't work right. Now that I went through most of my backstock, newer sale bin offerings are smaller bars. Some customers were complaining but I explained that is...

I'm blind too LOL! I *swear* that said odd........... but even old is ok to see if there's been any updates if the last info is from say 2 years ago! Heck half of us probably play with ideas and never bother to post how it did here, a post might trigger "oh I tried that....yea it did/didn't...

Thanks! I mean I expected a bit of difference but it keeps getting mushier and mushier. I'm looking for something I can make without buying someone else's "secret" (foaming whip) ingredient anyway, this was just a test. I do have some emulsifiers around. Currently poking through the book to see...

Hrm maybe think of it as a paste that takes two months to saponify? LOL... this is when multiple projects at the same time comes in handy, just making sure you label your "in wait" stuff well. Now hrm is this a balm base or something else....

Okay, well, that changes things. I have Barclay's book for Anhydrous products, I think I'll go through that and see what recipes she has in it. Save the whip for something...whipped? (Waiting for my mixer to come in). *grumble*.....Well, at least I halved the recipe to test and I can use up what...

I always notice a huge uptick right before Christmas (ooo I'm going to make gifts in two weeks!) or after one of those startup shows features a soapmaker. (been here longer than what the joined says, had issues with original username LOL). Also happens when the forum gets mentioned in a facebook...

I've been wanting to play with scrubs and did a bunch of research...I thought. I followed a recipe on WSP's site http://www.wholesalesuppliesplus.com/handmade101/how-to-make-recipes/salt-scrub-scoops-melon.aspx for a salt scrub but subbed in sugar, thinking it couldn't be *that* different. The...

"A couple of recipes I saw also stated you have to wait 2 months to work with it. That's what has really turned me off. While has 2 months to figure out whether your recipe works?!?! Are you waiting that much time between too?" Errrrr I'm not sure how you meant that, but since you need to wait...

DeeAnna, I just pictured you chewing on a roll of Gorilla tape......

Hrm, haven't seen anything like that zanzalawi...and nowhere in home improvement forums have I found any advice for coating old silicone other than peel it off LOL

I tried the white version that claimed to be 100% silicone on a cheapo walmart ice cube mold, that's a no go as it peeled right off :(. earlene, I was reading with interest the DIY molds, did you use the clear stuff? I don't care about vinegar smells LOL. They don't make what I have in mind...

I couldn't find this on a search...I have a silicone mold thats the right shape and size for a project but I need to add some detailing to it. Trying to figure out if the silicone in a tube would work? Has anyone tried this? I'm reluctant to toally mess up a mold...although I may have too :).

I've seen people do a display shelf with one unwrapped bar of each (labeled on the shelf) and then the extra sellables were kept in totes under the table...

New labels are a hit....and my new molds came in. Gotta figure out how I wanna do my next project...whee!

Oooof, at least its melt and pour and you can just remelt it :) (well, assuming you don't boil it...LOL)
