    What soapy thing have you done today?

    If you are okay with taking medications, you could to your doctor about Imitrex for migraine treatment. It makes you feel very weird for about an hour but then you can get up and do stuff. There are conditions that you can't take it with.

    Let's play Good News / Bad News

    Bad news: I was preping my bedroom to paint and found mold under my craft desk and the floor is soft about a foot-and-a-half into the room. Good news: we have not sold the RV yet so I have a place to sleep. My breathing seems to be doing better after just one night. Bad news: we're having...

    Post your Gripe

    I decided to paint my room instead of just rearranging. Underneath the desk that I wasn't planning to move I found a bit of mold along the bottom edge of the wall. When I went to look at it the floor shifted underneath my feet. I now I'm going to have to hire someone to fix it. So much for my...

    What I learned today ....

    Edit I learned to unwatch then posts I comment on the re-watch without email notices. We had a patch of mint right outside the door and our cat would escape and roll in the it.

    What did YOU do today?

    I'm working on rearranging my bedroom. I have almost finished the closet organizer shelf system. I'm also spraypainting some of my shelves. I am so tempted to paint while everything is cleaned off and packed up.

    after making batch larger the soap gelled in the middle

    Okay, reasons first. The soap is insulating itself as it has a larger mass. Also possibly the wood can be more insulating then silicone. Possible solutions. Wrap it up and let it go to full gel so you don't have any lines between gel and ungelled. Or, knowing that it gels, try immediately...

    Unmolding from individual carved wood molds

    It is and air drying modeling material. Think Play-Doh consistency except made out of different materials. It is smoother and won't dissolve once dry. I think it also may be less prone to cracking as it dries. It might work for these purposes. Most likely molded to the general shape and then...

    Perfume containing alcohol

    Edit I am not an expert and have never tried this. It might be possible to use it in hot process. If you add it at the end after the cook the lye will not have a chance to morph it. Also you would not have to evaperate the alcohol in this case. After all, alcohol can be added to hot process...

    Confetti soap - How to make it look good?

    Remember to account for the volume of the confetti bits when calculating the recipe size. A 5 pound mold will NOT hold a 5 pound batch of soap once you add 1 pound of confetti. If using a small to moderate amount of confetti, blend to a slightly thicker trace and stir confetti into batter...

    Unmolding from individual carved wood molds

    The only problem with the lining the carved molds would be you lose detail. You could have your friend carve a positive mold that you could use brush on mold maker to make a silicone liner. Be sure to use mold release or brush well with cornstarch. You can make a very thin silicone mold as long...
