    What to use to line wooden mold?

    I love the craft foam too I tried to use freezer paper, but went back to the foam :) When I first started out I used plastic grocery bags, but you have to keep it nice and smooth or you will have wrinkles in your soap.

    How important is distilled water?

    Depends on what is in your water. I get terrible ash if I use even filtered tap water so I stick with distilled.

    I know it's sounds funny, but this is the only place I could find the glass droppers I wanted for my eo's. I ordered some litmus paper super cheap too plus had a free shipping code can't beat that. They have lots of other stuff like goggles, aprons, beakers etc. They are pretty fast at shipping...
