I took an extended break on here after having a few more kids to add to my collection. Still soaping as much as possible which was daily almost for 5 years until I took a break last year for the first time. Just returning to CP (I like to do MP sometimes also) and hoping to also stick around...

I’ve been mia a few years from here as work and 6 kids have me busy. Likely no one knows me anymore so hello again. Been soaping regularly for work and family the last 6 years or so... still love it. Hope to have time to stick around again.

Finally decide to give their pricey la bomb colors a try and so far I'm irritated. 3 of them immediately leaked all over starting with the pink as I took the tape slowly off. Has anyone figured out a good way to work with them or good containers to change them into? Does everyone just use a...

Curious if anyone has bought from here? Not likely since they seem limited on items, but I need more dead sea salt asap and WSP is out again. Plus Cleo's has a sale and free ship right now. Just not sure how fast they ship or if their products are on the up

My almost 9 year old daughter likes to play around with melt and pour with me sometimes and I accidentally gave her candle color from peak. :/ I have insane amounts of color from too many places and obviously this one went in the wrong bin when organizing on 4th of July. Any idea what could...

I love when I decide to peruse the crazenet late at night and find a bit of info by accident that makes me stop and say what??! I've never heard of this and in my experience once fully cured, gel vs non gel have no difference in their lasting affect that I've noticed. Why would they? Now I've...

Went on a bit of a hiatus but I still thought of SMF often.. decided I needed to try and become involved here again. Soaping is still my fav 'craft' by far and I'm working on it daily or weekly so thought I'd start popping in again and try to get some life stress out with some relaxing chit...

Thought I'd share my giant (tall) rack that I finally got! It's taken me forever it seems to decide on one and this set overall was the biggest bang for the buck IMO since each bin (I have 12) holds at least 3 of my 4 lbs loaves with room to spare so they aren't squished at all. One bin also...

It's their annual Red white and blue sale through the 4th. They have a few soap colors and lots of other stuff. Had to hold myself back and stay just under $500. LOL But considering I just had 3 large boxes delivered from them, it shouldn't have been so hard. Too bad many of those items are now...

Decided to go pretty basic for this first one. Wanted a flower for my girls in their 3 favorite colors, pink, purple and turquoise. Each soap has pink on one side and purple on the other. Love that part and happy it worked out as planned. Ended up looking like flowers in the sky my 7 year old...

I want to soap but I've been soaping a lot lately, like 12 batches the last 20 days or so based on my notes, and I want a challenge. Trying to think of something out of the ordinary to do. I did a heat transfer last night at 10 pm but it turned out super easy. And I already have done lots of...

Decided to try this method again so I have an option to use when I decide at 10pm that I want to soap and don't have time to wait. lol Worked out really well for this recipe at least... which was also a new one I did for CO free for a friend. It has goats milk and is scented with 2 different...

This was from a few days ago and I'm still wanting the loaf back. :/ Anyone else get loafs they would rather not cut? I know the inside with anything but solid colors, is fun to see, but sometime I really wish I could keep my loaf whole. I loved the look of this one with the simple design and I...

I can't for the life of me remember what it's called when you do this process? I just did tonight with a vanilla bean soap and need the name for my book. I've done it before but back then I didn't take as good of notes. lol TIA!

Decided to do a pink himilayan and sea salt combo this time. Pleased with it and it smells amazing.. One of my favorite scents so like it in salt where it sticks better. White, sweet potatoe, and plum colors to match.

Decided to try a new round mold I got (which broke incidentally so there's a phone call on Monday to them) and a mold I've had here but never used yet for fear of it.. and I had good reason to fear it.. what a PITB! The soaps look cute I think but really IMO aren't worth the effort and time...

Anyone else do this with their scraps? My kids always love them because I can make small sizes and they are so easy to use.. plus it makes for no waste. I've even taken a bar and grated it up to make one when I ran out during my soaping hiatus. lol If not.. do you just throw out your scraps and...

Back in February someone asked if there was a sugar bar with tons of sugar like a salt bar but it seems no one had really tried it, or had tried a variation of it but it was too soft. I went ahead and tried it back then and realized I never posted the results. Mine turned out great overall. It...

A lot of people viewed the 'do you want to do this' post but only a handful wanted to do it.. hopefully once it's started more will feel like playing along. Don't be shy! ;) This thread is help us put a face to the names we see so often around here. I love doing this on other forums and I have...
