    Mixing Waxes

    So, for my understanding coconut wax is hydrogenated coconut oil. So, 92F coconut oil that is hydrogenated would be considered coconut wax. There are all different recipes for coconut wax blends. I have been told by wax manufacturing companies that only 5-10% coconut 92 (wax) is needed. I...

    Hello all of you wonderful soap makers! While scrolling through my Insta I saw a soaper that mentioned the "Eco-Soap Bank" I looked them up and they appear to do some amazing work! They employ people AND they use up soap waste. This is where you all come in to the picture. Many of you have...

    Post your Gripe

    I see it on various websites. I can't remember where off the top of my head. It is generally something that I only get once in awhile, like a piece for a curtain rod. And I think it was once at a place that sold all bamboo products. And I totally agree with you. If it is for wait staff then...

    Post your Gripe

    I actually feel the same way. I don't know why but it always makes me a little angry. We don't even collect for anything on the site because I am afraid it will give the same feeling to people. I don't know why it puts me in such a bad mood. I know I have the right not to give a tip but then...

    Lemon soap

    I am a bit jealous that you can grow your own lemons! That alone has me impressed. And your soap is incredibly lovely. The colors work beautifully together! I am curious as to what the little bit of orange looking material is on the top of the soap. Is that a lemon piece?

    Uneven Bubble Candle Tops

    I saw in another post that you used soy. I have to say that it would be very strange for soy to indent like that. Although I do see "tear" marks on the surface that look like soy. The "tear" is what soy usually does. It doesn't usually make a clean looking "fold". So I am totally wondering...

    Renaming after 21 years.

    Rebranding is tough! 21 years is a long time to put into a product and there is now a lot of "good-will" associated with that name. If you change names entirely you may confuse a lot of people. And people don't like to be confused. I am currently going through the same issue so I feel for you.

    The Truth About Lasting Fragrance (Essential Oils)

    Thank you Peachy! I haven't done our Coconut Macaroon in soap yet. Now I am wondering if it would have the incredible fresh baked "pop" as it does in candles. Or if it will be one of thoses that gets eaten. I did our Candy Corn and it totally got blitzed. Kinda smelled like Play-Doh in the...
