I got my mold!

It's really really really well put together. Can't wait to wash and use it. It'll do 18 bars at a time no matter how they are cut (horizontally or vertically)

Where did you get it from?

Custom craft tools.

I bought two more before I used the first one

That’s why you visit the plumbing section of your local hardware store @MomInWA, to purchase a jar of Red Devil. I know where you live, and you DO have stores there!


How did you apply the gold mica @Nonnie? It looks fantastic!!!

I used my finger and a soft bristle brush withsome mica. Worked out pretty good.

I absolutely hated the round soap so I have been playing around with them. I took a few and smooshed them in my shampoo bar mold. It helped a little. Then, I took the leftover embed logs and cut them to fit inside cavity molds. I'll make a batch of white batter again like the other bees and pour over. Maybe I'll have decent looking soap then.

I love your creativity! I'm excited to see how the bee molds turn out.

When I make slabs, not so much. But multicolor or multi-loaf batches requires days of preparation and checking and rechecking. Then execution is fast.

Fragrance and/or sodium gluconate gets missed often

Yes, I can relate to the little cups of extras I forgot to stir in at the end before pouring into the mold
