    Ts silicone mold

    I haven't used this mold for about 2 years. It is the one from America soap supplies. How much oil does it hold? I had it written on the bottom but it rubbed off. The site says up to 4lbs for peaked soaps 3.75 for flat. I have measured and calculated I was just wondering how much you all use...

    Brambleberry sales?

    I know bb runs monthly specials. Does anyone know when they typically change their web special items? I was just given a gift certificate and really want to spend it but I am not thrilled with their current specials. It probably wouldn't make too much of a difference in my order but I would hate...

    Butterfly swirl

    I have been almost constantly thinking about trying to create a butterfly soap swirl. I think there are 2 techniques that could result in one bar looking like half a butterfly. I think some run a hangar through a tilted tiger/dandelion swirl. Others start with a basic drop swirl and add the...

    Tetrasodium EDTA

    I don't have hard water but my mother does. Can I add EDTA to my soap? I am guessing I will have to make a solution and do some math. Does anyone use it with good results? Suggestions on solution strength and % to add to soap? Thanks for your consideration.

    Bamboo Silk??

    I just received a free sample of bamboo silk from a soaping supplier. I use Tussah silk in all my batches and just love it. Does anyone have any experience with bamboo silk? I am assuming it is a vegan alternative and would be used in the same way. Any tips for using it? TIA

    Sea water salt bars??

    Is there any reason why it would be a bad idea to use sea water for my lye solution for a salt bar? I was thinking of doing 80% co 20% avocado and 20% sf 90% sea salt and Atlantic sea water. Does any one have any experience with using sea water with salt bars? Thanks for any input.

    YouTube?

    I have been thinking about starting a YouTube channel and posting soap making videos. Not tutorials, just me making soap. Do you all watch any YouTube videos? Any advise if you have a channel? I don't sell so this is not to increase business. Just for the fun of it. I love making soap, and while...
