Hmmmm...may have to give this a go this week-end! Thanks!

Quick question for all the M&P folks.....how do I not get the lines from pouring layers of the same color (for imbeds)? I've tried spritzing the first layer (as well as the imbed) with alcohol before pouring the second layer....but I still get the line!?! :? Thanks! ~Becky

OMG!!!They are sooo cute! Itty Bitty doxies!! I want another so bad! LOL!

I use plain white vinegar in the wash. I have a 6 month old puppy who is not fully house trained yet. She still wets her crate blankets occasionally. The vinegar is wonderful for getting all the urine smell out of her blankets....leaves them smelling fresh. I just add a cup to the washer, then...

Thank you! The breeder I got her from called her coloring 'harlequin'....but my friend (the vet) said she's a cross between a single dapple and a piebald, and that there is realy no such pattern (the harlequin) in doxies (I tend to defer to the vet of 30 years for this kind of info! :D ) It...

This is my doxie baby, Lucy. She's almost 6 months old....a dapple piebald. She is spoilied rotten...and she knows it! :D She's doing beautifully with her crate....hardley ever whines when I leave for work in the mornings now...and no messes. House training is.....a constant uphill battle...

Hi! I made my first batch of salt bars several weeks ago. They looked and smelled wonderful!! But when I tried a bar last night in the shower, I found tht it didn't lather much. Is this normal with salt bars?? I've never used on ebefore, so I have nothing to compare it to. Thanks! ~Becky

I'm still fairly new to soaping as well! I'd love to set up a trade with you. It would be awesome to try someone else's soaps! I sent you a pm....

I've used red wine in my soap before. When I mixed the lye into it...it turned an ugly muddy brown color and smelled awful!!! The whole house reaked for days!!! But after it cured, I've got this lovely maroon/burgundy color. I say go for it...just ignore the color of the lye water (or lye...

I've got a holiday craft fair coming in a few months and I'm so undecided on what to order as far as some good holiday scents...but I really need to make up my mind and get an order placed so my soap has time to cure! :P I've had a few requests for a pumpkin pie scent. Any recommendations...

You are absolutely right!!! :) I should have been a little more clear. :P The 'organic all veggie shortning' that I purchase lists the ingedients as palm oil and nothing else. That's why I mentioned checking the label for ingredients! :wink:

I get mine at my local Kroger. It's a 24 oz tub of Spectrum (brand name) organic all veggie shortning. It's in the 'health food' section of the store. I pay $5.15 for the tub. I have found that not all Kroger stores have it, though! I have also seen the same brand at Whole Foods for $6.98 a...

I've used 'Sweet Dreams' herbal tea before in place of my water. It's a blend of Chamomile, hibiscus, peppermint leaves, rose blossoms, spearmint leaves, and orange blossoms. I also added a little dried tea from a few tea bags. It turned the soap a very pale greenish/tan color and it had a very...
