I am having he!! of a time finding a program that makes round labels, or labels that have a curve to the lettering, aside from maestro label maker. Any suggestions?

Do you guys make round soaps (such as from a PVC pipe mold)? If so, do you think they sell as well as bar soaps?
I have been making bars up until now and I like them very much, but just because I have to try absolutely everything, I bought a short length of 3" PVC pipe today and made 2 molds out of it. I have it lined with parchment paper which always works nice for me and have taped a piece of plastic over the bottom. I am ready to rock. If they work well, it seems that you could make a boatload of PVC pipe molds for a fraction of the cost of wooden or, heaven forbid, HDPE molds.
What say all you experienced soapers?

It's not the shape of the bar, it's the size of the glass that counts. :wink:

I'm just thinking about doing my facial bars in 2.5" PVC (3" is good for body bars, I wanted something smaller for the facial ones). Do you know how hard it is to find the stuff?

And would you believe that I eventually came across some in my BF's dad's business's basement??? LOL!

The Hardware store didn't have any? Like Home Depot or Lowes?
That's odd.

I was thinking you could make your own "tamper" out of those to make bath tablets. Get the PVC tube and a wood dowel that's smaller and tamp tamp tamp - I have NOOOOO idea if it would work, but well, that's the idea.. lol

not the 2.5" PVC. 3" and 2" and even 1", but not 2.5"

I have looked EVERYWHERE for 2.5 inch (inner diameter) pvc. They don't make it. That is the size I need for my facial, as well. I asked every hardware person I could think of and my DH. No luck. If you find out, let me know.

Oh, after dropping a frozen pvc on concrete filled with soap, it slid out beeutifully! No pushing or prodding. No lining, no oiling. I have been dropping soaps on the ground all morning
