    Using PVC as a soap mold

    Smell in Lavender Soap

    I gave one of my buddies a bar of lemon and tea tree and he swears he can smell the lemon afterwards. I have never smelled like my soap afterwards but my wife can smell it. Of course, a womans nose is 4x stronger than a mans. CaraBou is right, enjoy it while you have it.

    Never give up. You will always have your failures. That is what makes this so fun. The questions I always ask myself are does it still clean and does it smell okay. If you are not selling it but thosetwo questions can be answered with yes, throw it in a box marked survival bars and use them...

    another soapbox rant

    You should have taken the bar to them and asked them if they were aware that their "handmade" bar has a common degreaser found in auto parts stores. One of my buddies has a job where all he does is scout for fake and knock off clothing. A division of the Indiana State Police. If anybody is...

    Hi everyone!

    Welcome Hlee. Love the cheese box mold. My first molds were made out of 2x4's screwed together. I have only been soaping since July. There is a wealth of knowledge on here so keep a notepad handy.

    I ate my fragrance oil....

    Eating a spoonful of cinnamon is called the cinnamon challenge. Look it up on youtube. Hilarious videos. The stupid stuff people come up with these days. Oh well, it keeps me gainfully employed.

    Hunting Success and Soap

    I assumed that this would have been the appropriate place because General Chat is for off topic things. Didn't mean to offend anybody. I can see how non-hunters might be offended. My feelings aren't hurt, still love the forum. Anyway, judymoody I did make anise soap also, I just haven't used...

    Hunting Success and Soap

    A few weeks ago I decided to make some dirt scented soap. I found out that WSP carries Dirt FO. I was skeptical but, the reviews won me over so I ordered it. It smelled exactly like the scented wafers I buy at the store. October 1st was the bow opener here in Indiana so I decided to try it...
