My sister has asked me to make bars of soap for bridal shower favors. Any cute ideas on labeling it?

It's just cut and not cleaned up yet. But I like it.

I want to try adding poppy seeds to some of my soap. I have been asked if I have this my people looking for poppy seed soap. Do you have to do anything to the poppy seeds prior to adding them? Do they make the soap too scratchy? Thanks!

Has anyone ordered the .15 oz lip balm tubes from them? I usually order from speciality bottles, but BA is about $10 cheaper for 200 tubes.

I am placing an order from BB and I was thinking of getting activated charcoal for some of the more masculine scents. Has anyone used this as a colorant? Your thoughts?

How do you use clay for colorant. I have seen some fabulous pictures of people that have used clay, the pinks are incredible. I saw that BB sells clay, how do you use it in CP soap, and does the color morph to something else?

Last night I decided to rebatch all of the scraps (from beveling edges). I used a crockpot and a milk/water mixture for the liquid. It seems to come out great until I added the untramarine powder from brambleberry for the color. It seemed to stay in little powder balls and I wasn't able to...

I want to make a honey goat milk soal with oats on the top. Anyone have any good honey FOs?

I scan the free books on amazon every few days to find the good ones. Today there is one for soap making. Looks interesting. I downloaded it but haven't had a chance to read it yet. Here is the link http://www.amazon.com/Basic-Soap-Making ... 4606011_12

I hate car shopping.... I am driving a 2002 Honda CR-V. I love this car to death, but it has 180,000 miles on it, and I can't count on it to be reliable forever...although so far (knocking on wood) it hasn't given me ONE OUNCE of trouble! So, I am car shopping. I am trying to make a deal on...

...in another batch of soap, how much do you use? For instance, would the bevelings from one 6 lb batch be enough to mix into another 6 lb batch, or would you need more shavings than that?

So, I was afraid that it would lack bubbles and lather. I used my regular recipe, and just substituted most of the water for GM. I tried it this morning (4 week cure) and I loved it! It was more lathery and bubbly than the normal recipe! I am in love and might not be able to soap w/o GM now!!

Does anyone use this in their soap? Does it add any positive properties to your soap? I have seen it in a lot of stores here and it made me think..... Thanks!

I have been looking for a cheap sturdy shelf for all of my soap things. They have taken over my basement and it is driving me nuts! So, I stopped at salvation army this afternoon and got this for $14.95! I am pretty happy with it, but it looks like I might need TWO!!

I am really having fun with the goat milk. I have gone through 3 quarts! Here are the soaps that I have made so far... The first two are Orange Spice. I added tapioca pearls to 1/2 and poppy seeds to the other half of the batch... This is my mom's fav scent and they are leaving for FL for...

I was there last night and they had silicone muffin pans in the shape of ghosts, fall leaves, and pumpkins! I got four, I can't wait to use them this weekend!! Oh, they were only $3.99 each!!

http://cgi.ebay.com/5-6-Lb-NO-LINER-SOA ... .m20.l1116 I have the TOG molds and they just aren't working out....these looked nice, and not too $$$$....

So, I have made two batches now, but neither are ready to use. So, what can I expect from them? Will the lather be creamier? Will there be a bunch of bubbles? What makes the GM Soap so special??

I am so excited! I found a goat farm in the town next to mine (about 30 min away...) and I w-mailed to see if they would sell me some GM for my soap, and she said she would! I am so excited!!!

I made my first GM soap with this over a week ago. The scent is awesome! Smells just like a creamsicle, and it didn't discolor at all. I think this is one of my fav summer scents now... :)
