Really cute!

Does anyone else have a soap making room that does not have running water? I am considering converting a bedroom into a soap making room. Of course, I will have close access to a bathroom and the kitchen will not be far away. If so, let me know your experience. My hubby is not loving the...

Sugar cubes

Do any of you scrapbookers know where I can get a africa shaped punch or die cut. They need to be pretty small. I want to put them on scrabble tile necklaces. Thanks!!!

Has anyone used cookie cutters as molds? I am guessing most of the metal ones are aluminum (not okay for CP???). If you have, do you have any tips? I want to make Africa shaped soap but can only find metal cookies cutters for molds. Thanks! Jessica

I have no idea, but i think i used too much alcohol. It was my first time making them. They still work, but don't have any shape to them. :(

I am experimenting with bath fizzies (failed last night as I got up this morning to big globs of fizzies) and trying another recipe today. It calls for grapeseed oil and I don't have any, do you think Sweet almond oil or Avacado oil will work for a substitute? I think it is just for...
