Cow Pie anyone? - Updated Pics on Page 3

[agriffin]

Well, I tried making cow pie shaped soap...

What can I say... novelty sells here in Grand Prairie, TX!

I think I need to smash them a little flatter before they harden too much. And they will turn darker brown as they cure. They have vanilla in them...

Not too pleased... but okay for a first try

OMG!!
i don't know whether that is more disgusting or genius!
what a fun idea!

 

[CherryGardenGirl]

Oh dear . . . that last picture is a killer

 

[Deda]

Oh dear. That's disgusting!
Is Grand Prairie close to Trophy Club? Sounds really familiar.

Just south of Dallas...

I know it's disgusting! But it WILL sell!

Now I'm going to take a shower... I just feel dirty after making those...

 

[Deda]

Where are you selling them? I have to send one to my sister. ASAP.

 

[Tabitha]

Hey Grand Prairie, I am in Corsicana, Just about 40 minutes South of you!

LOL, well I sell at the Grand PRairie farmer's market... but I think these are still in the works...

If anybody wants to make their own I just piped out of a frosting bag (tip cut off a bit) when the soap was thick trace... and that's lemon grass for uh... added texture...

but I googled cow pie pictures... I think I need to go for more flat?

 

[IanT]

that is so twisted...... I love it.

 

[Healinya]

Those are pretty cool... I would buy it lol.

There was a web site that was shared here awhile back that I thought I had bookmarked but can't find - they had every mold shape you would never have thought of... I wish I could find it, because you're photo is making me want to have my own fun lol..

I can't believe I even thought this, but what if you crumble up heavy wax paper and then open it flat. Press that against the semi-firm soap, and it will flatten then while leaving behind a.... better texture??

Great Job...again - very cool

 

[dagmar88]

Can't you find one of these locally?

 

[ToniD]

Yes, I can tell you that if any of my sons or my husband were to buy a bar of soap, those would be the ones! Creative idea

 

[IanT]

Lol also..not sure if you have ever been around cows.... but re: the flat cowpie thing.... just remember that unlike dogs/cats and such...they dont squat.... their business end is like 4 ft off the ground, so youve gotta think of that fall/impact as the flattening factor lol

I cant believe Im giving advice/input based off of cowpies lol

So you could produce a full line of POO soaps, dog poo, cat poo.... Growing up on a dairy farm these look pretty authentic. The fly is a good idea too.

You are a creative genius and obviously you have a great sense of humour.

You're going to sell $hi% soap. Good for you.

Cheers.

Thank you for the giggle.

LOL.. From memory theres a greenish tint I think,& Ian,you have it down pat(haha) on the gravity thing. Splllatt!! Sort of ripples out from the centre. Hows about thwopping those plates on the bench a coupla times to flatten it a bit?

 

[April]

Sometimes a golden tint, depends on time or year and grass.

Hahaha, that's exactly what my boyfriend did! And it seemed to work, but now they have lightened up a bit. But the FO I used had some vanilla in it, so hopefully they will darken up a bit.... Thanks!
