No Uh Hum from me but I will say there is a difference between a regular customer you can rely on, the kind that buys every month and a customer who buys once or twice a year. The former is precious and will keep you in business and worth giving a little discount to once a year as a thank you...
Thanks @Dawni. I'm lucky in that I have a trade background so am able to make things myself and also have the tools needed to hand even though the tools were only a drill and a jigsaw. That's why I enjoy making soap. I like to see something and have a go, it keeps my mind active.
Well, after looking at prices of soap cutters and with me not being a soap business realising the cost just isn’t worth it I decided to knock up one of my own. I looked at photos of several cutters and some videos of cutters being used and made one. I am waiting for my guitar string to come then...
I better explain this more. I would like to make a two coloured soap. one colour on bottom, one on top. If I make my batter and lightly blend but not to trace then seperate into two batches if I stick blend the bottom layer but not the top batch will it thicken whilst I'm waiting for the bottom...
I make my soap then put my containers aside and once my soap is soap I wash it off in the sink. I find it cleans up better once it has saponified and is also less harsh on the skin.
Ok It couldn’t wait much longer and have cut my first drop swirl soap there is a picture further up the thread showing it in the mould. Here is the full reveal. I know to a lot of experienced soapers it may be old hat but I am delighted with it for a first successful soap. I want to thank all...
