    I want to build a soap stamper

    They're pricey but you could get a snap press and use epoxy or gorilla glue to attach a piece of melamine to the bottom die, and the stamp to the top die. You could set the soap on and pull the lever to squish the stamp. Bonus that they'd be removable.

    How many knitters?

    I generally knit, but the cardigan I'm working on is too heavy for July, so I am crocheting cotton bath poufs today. Hubby and the kids are going to be my pouf testers. :)

    My first 100% salt bars... and some beer too!

    I thought I had reduced it enough (about a shot glass full), but I guess Budweiser has it's own ideas. lol It feels great, but smells like yeasty brown sugar-ish vanilla beans. Good thing the kiddos don't care as long as it's not "store-soap". ;) The only one they have refused to use is the...

    Why wouldn't my soap melt?

    The glass seems to dissipate the heat really quickly. Do you have something else to melt it in? It's strange that it went funny in the microwave though. I was so excited when I tried it and it worked. lol Sooo much faster. :)

    Lumps of coal

    Those are awesome! I think I know what I'm doing on my next day off. They will be great in the kiddos stockings- it's super cute and they are now in love with "the good soap", aka mom's. ;)

    Why wouldn't my soap melt?

    I found with my pyrex bowls, it takes forever over a double boiler. I either use my stainless mixing bowl, or I use the pyrex in the microwave and it works fine.

    Nuffin. :( I thought I would be smart and order the lye from a company that was closer to me. My stuff from Ontario arrived yesterday; stuff from BC hasn't even shipped yet. Well, I am making body butters this weekend and my bottles arrived for my hand soap, but no cp soaps this weekend. :(...

    Oh YUM!! First CPOP

    Just my 2lb wooden mold. I didn't want to do a big batch in case I messed up. Now I wish I had more. I did drop one "accidentally" so it's dented and must now become mine. ;)

    Latest Label Creation

    Only change is that melon only has 1 "L". Otherwise I like it. My labels for my knitting are lime green and pink, so the green is great. I like the idea of the colour block matching the scent, too. Sent from my iPhone using Soap Making
