Well you see, he thinks I have WAY to many posts for the two short weeks I have been here lol He tells me you all may get sick of answering questions and reading my posts (I think he's just jealous!) HEHE. So tell me please, DO I talk to much? You can be honest! LOL I'm just so...

Going to try some lemongrass soap tonight! I was really happy with my other two soaps :D I have pics of them on page two here: Just scroll down to the bottom of the page to see them. http://www.soapmakingforum.com/showthread.php?t=47308&page=2 Will share pictures of my Leomongrass soap after...

I'm actually really happy with how these turned out :D And man they smell fantastic :D I picked Ebony & Ivory for the black and white one (thanks to a buddy soaper for that idea :D) And Fruity Bliss for the other one. Or does Fruity Delight sound better? What do you think?

I decided to do one more even tho it's after 2am here. Got it done pretty quickly too AND I'm very happy with it! At least so far, we will see about when it's cut. I was going to do a zebra stripe but then had another idea in my head that I wanted to try in shape of a crescent moon. Here is what...

Well, I got ONE batch done when I wanted to get two done (it's a LOT of work to make soap!) LOL And I also learned not to put vanilla in a soap unless you want it yellowish (and YES I did read that before but of course you HAVE to try it because you KNOW that would never happen to you!)...

I got this off Amazon for a great price and now I'm worried if i made the right choice. Do I have to strain this etc like is says for making CP soaps? I didn't want to make more work for myself so if I do have to I may just pay more for the other shea butter. Any help on this would be wonderful...

I got my very first order from Brambleberry (earlier than expected) and I was a little disappointed that I didn't get a free sample fragrance (dug through everything in search of it) but then had to look at the colorants a little better because it seemed like one was VERY little compared to the...

It's brand new sparkly (not so much) SOAP CUTTER! And it works WONDERFULLY! I love that man :D And he also made me two other smaller molds so I have three in total now. When my supplies finally get here I will be making soap like crazy :D Can't wait!

We liked how it turned out :D Making me more excited to get my colors and my scents to make some colorful wonderful smelling soaps!

Someone told me that whenever you order something you get a free sample of fragrance no matter what you order? Is this true? That's awesome if it is!

I am getting together my THIRD Brambleberry order and I have not even gotten the first order yet :crazy: Please tell me I'm "normal" at least normal for the soap forum? HA I just feel like I did not get enough scents or colors. I only ordered an oz of certain ones...then found out it takes...

We LOVE very scratchy soaps, but I still ground it up nice and fine. We will try it out on ourselves first before giving any away. I have the very strong coffee made and just waiting for it to cool now. Here is our finished product from what we had available...we shredded up some of our...

Did another 3rd shift and I'm almost ready to go home but instead of going to bed, I'm gonna make me some soap! Using coffee and burdock leaves as colorants with NO scent (for the hubby and the MIL). I'm a little excited and will be sure to share my products with you when they are done. What...

Sorry, I know I've asked a lot through the night but just a quick last question until I hit the hay. IF I'm adding cream to CP soap do I count that as water and mix it into the lye and use that much less water? And what qualities does the cream have when using it? I have seen a few use it in...

I forgot to tell you all that I actually got brave and did a zap test. It was GOOD. No zaps although I was kind of looking forward to feeling what it felt like so I know what to look for. Or maybe not! My hubby thinks we should just invest in some ph strips instead of licking our soaps. :lol:

My husband and I talked with my 9 yr old son about lye and how dangerous it can be and the proper way to handle it etc and when we make the lye solution he sees us all gloved up with our goggles on and he now refuses to even touch my soaps :( He says he doesn't want to use them ever because...

I have ordered so many things waiting to get started on making some soap but I am SO impatient. Is there anything I can use for scent that will work in CP soap that is right in my store? It doesn't even have to be strong :D Oh and color as well! I'm hoping for red or pickish. I just wanna...

I had just spent 5.50 on a bar of soap last week that said it was 4.5 oz when my weighting it (because I thought it looked much smaller then my 4.5 oz soap that I had made) it was actually 3.5 oz? Is this normal? I know soap can shrink but I thought I read somewhere that that was illegal to...

Sorry. posted this first in someone else's post! But anyway, has anyone tried this before? I have a nice machine that I never use so would really love to put it to use. My daughter used it mainly so I'm new to the machine thing! lol

So 200 bucks later...ha I promised my hubby I would start small but he should know me by now, we have only been married 27 years. That poor man! I do think he enjoys making the soap as much as I do. He even cleans up after were done making soap. He is sitting on his computer comparing prices on...
