How many bars do you have right now, and is it excessive?

[AmyW]

I have 96 bars curing And I want more, but I'm waiting for my castor oil to get here on Friday before I go nuts again. Just curious, for fun, if I'm on the low or high end of obsessed

If part of your count is business stock, how much is personal?

 

[pixybratt]

about 100 at different stages

 

[calico21]

Without going and counting probably around 60... some are good bars that have turned out well, some re-batched and am praying I don't have to toss my GM ones that have been curing.

I have business stock; about 600 bars and need to make more as I'm running a little low on some bars.

 

[Lynnz]

I have roughly 300 bars in stock and about twenty hanging out in the house :0)

I only make soap for personal use, and I have around 80 or 90 around the place at the moment, after giving away around 50 over Christmas. :shock: But I have made 5 batches already this year. :roll: And you think you're obsessed!!!

What can I say...Hi, my name is Sherry and it's been two days since my last batch of soap . This site has become a support group for my new obsession. I have at least 50 bars curing at the moment.

 

[judymoody]

Probably 100 or so. I've been experimenting with different mixes of oils and with natural colorants so I've made lots of small batches of 6 to 8 bars. And I have all of those little sample FO bottles to use up!

 

[cwarren]

almost 400 here. my new bread rack is almost full..

 

[Dragonkaz]

For personal use only ... and I'm guessing in excess of 150 as of today.

I'm pleased I try to limit myself to only one batch a weekend ... or it would be way to scary.

I keep getting amazing ideas from the other members of this forum and I just have to give them a try. What a shame ... I'm having so much fun! lol!

I have a stand alone shelf in my master bedroom that has around 1500+ bars that are already cured and ready to go. I just sent in my application for an LLC on tuesday (BIL took his time filling in out!), so once that goes through and I get insurance, I'll be set to sell locally. I have probably around 50 bars sitting on my shelf in the laundry room curing from last month. I haven't soaped a batch since the 1st of this year. I'm ready to start some spring scents, florals, haven't used those yet and have read that the accellaration is fun, can't wait!

I also try to limit myself to one batch a week - I pretty much got cleaned out over the holidays, so now only have around 75 bars. I give away as much as I can so that I "need" to make more.

Around 500 +/- Different fragrances, all business stock.

For personal use I make Carebears CO/CB unscented.
There are probably 6 or 8 bars of that in the powder rooms, and maybe a dozen in the linen closet.

 

[KimHartley24]

Just threw away 17 bars from a bad batch from October, and have 42 bars in varying stages of curing, though I did give away 8 bars recently My low numbers are going to change soon though! I've got supplies on the way and I've been waiting to fix up my workspace before I make any more soap By the end of next week surely I'll have more than 100 curing bars

 

[carebear]

define excessive. i've never heard of that in relation to soap.

 

[honor435]

I have over 100, I did some shows over Christmas, sold over 100, need to regroup, fun obsession though.

 

[agriffin]

I probably have about 400. And since I don't sell anymore right now..yes it is excessive. I'll have lots of happy friends/co-workers.

 

[Stinkydancer]

I'm low on mine since I dislocated my shoulder but I have an excessive amount of someone's else soap- since she closed up shop and stopped making it. I'm still sad about it.

 

[krissy]

i have about 60-70 in my house right now. i need to buy more oils so i can soap some more though. 8)

 

[SudsyKat]

I have about 60 bars (I gave away about that many for Christmas too). Right now, it's not feeling excessive, but give me a couple more weeks!
