tryanything, a couple more things you can do to keep it at least semi-controlled: Soap at low temps (I'm talking room temp, below 90 degrees) Use full water amount, no discount. HTH! FreeRabbit, I'm in your boat lol Still looking for that magic way to keep it from looking dark when...

An alternative would be to plan your sessions according to fragrance. Do one fragrance that gives you plenty of time to work, and one that moves very fast. Use your stick blender on the well-behaved one, and a whisk on the fast mover. Then all you have to worry about is having enough...

Oh my... that's so pretty! It really does give a peaceful feeling, and I see the blue flower as well. <3 it!

I'm so sorry :( Sending healing energy to your wife, and calming energy to you both.

Alright, I've gone ahead and edited my original post to show a bit of a running total for each FO (to the side of the FO in red), so we know where we're at, and maybe it will encourage others to chime in on some of these that they like to help us reach our 10 lb. total :wink: Thank you...

Another worth checking out is Essential Wholesale (google for link). HTH!

Excellent, Laura :P Please let us know when you find out. I'd be interested in at least 8 oz. of the Basil Lime and Oakmoss as well. There are about 15 on this list that I'd be interested in buying at least 8 oz. of, so I'm easy about whatever we can bring together :wink:

Very nice, MsSharLee. Yours is very smooth looking compared to most whipped soap I've seen, good job!

Thank you for the encouragement judymoody, it did lift my spirits a bit :) Unfortunately though, it seems most people are in your same boat as we haven't gotten much response at all. I'm going to give it another 4 days (til the end of the week), to see if there's sufficient interest, and then...

I passed the review on to my daughter, and predictably, she didn't care if it was black, so long as she could smell it lol Will still try, though, just to see ^^

How dark, photoshadows? as in, milk chocolate or dark chocolate? I'm wondering if some vanilla stabilizer + TD + white mica combo might be able to keep it under control ^^ I doubt my daughter would care about it being black even, she's so in love with it OOB, but..."Vanilla Peach" just begs for...

This. I adore chunky bars, and yours just make me want one so bad!

Wow, sooo jealous! :wink: My hubby's eyes glaze over in just that way when I start talking soap lol. I've even tried to get him interested in making me molds and cutters, and no go there too :( Nice to see the pic of the lexan though, I've really been thinking about trying some liners like...

I don't sell myself, but have done quite a bit of reading up on the subject, just in case I ever decide to go there. From what I've read, you'd add your overhead, packaging, and labor to your total loaf cost, then divide by how many slices you get per log. For labor, you'd decide on an...

I really like the framed signs... it gives a bit of a more polished look :)

Love how creamy the tops look!

Those are really cute for Halloween!

I don't sell, but personally I don't see any question regarding products laid out on a table as being "over the line". Would you worry about asking a store manager in Wal-Mart about any aspect of the product you're about to buy? Granted, Wal-Mart is resale, not handcrafted goods, but the...

Really gorgeous swirl, despite the thickness :D and I really kind of like air bubbles, as long as they're not huge or too many... it adds to the appeal of handmade ^^ As for the milk frother, you can get one on amazon for 1.99, 4.99 with free shipping if your total order makes $25 (all items...

photoshadows how much total are you thinking? kharmon320 how much are you thinking total? Asking because it's really easy to tweak the boxes so we meet the minimum if we have a general idea of totals :D
