Wanted to test out my little scent vials from soapalooza...needed my 12 bar mold. 12 bar mold was occupied with pine tar soap from last weeks project. Let's just say a week is not quite enough time in a silicone mold for pine tar soap. Three bars are mushed back together, the rest look ok I guess....another week would've been better but I WANTED MY MOLD.
Soooo anyone thinking of pine tar, don't use your favorite testing mold. /lesson
Remainder of batter after pouring test half bars was colored part paprika and part allspice and darnit I wanted to leave some white! I now have brown and orange soap in seashell molds instead of white orange brown swirly seashells. Well, guess I'll see how it looks-it's unscented so there's always confetti! Now I'm off to make the labels for the test bars so I don't forget who accelerated and who didn't......
Edit: apparently I spilled some fragrance oil on my hands. Those vials are impossible to open. Very glad I got scents that work decent together...I'm on my fifth handwashing and I still smell....
