Do the bags from packo have red stitching? It's hard to tell in the photo but I think I can see a bit of red?

That is super crappy! (((HUGS))). I Hope we can all take this as a learning lesson to double check labels when receiving shipments since errors do occur. Also hope you get refunded!!!

Thanks! It wasn't a disaster or failure so I'm happy lol! Good things come with patience hopefully :)

I am so addicted!!! I made my 2nd batch yesterday. I made the same recipe. I want to get familiar with the process before I experiment too much (& I like plan soap!). I hope to make some coffee soaps, & I have some french green clay & black clay I would like to make some soap with those. I...

I actually do have a sewing machine! Maybe I will try this if I have extra time. I could see making the draw string part driving my nuts though especially if I needed to make a lot.

I'm waiting until it is cured until I package it. Nooo I Don't plan on selling anytime soon. I plan on giving soap gifts for Xmas So if I let my soap cure 8 weeks that will be Dec 8th!!! I would like to be prepared before It's too late! :D Muslin bags seems the most practical...... I SUCK at...

Thanks for the photo Horsecreek. Your soap packaging looks lovely. Clean, Simple & fresh! Hello fellow Albertan coffeetime! (Edmonton over here ) Thanks also for the photo. I think I'm going to go with the saffire bags since they don't have the red stitching even though they are .25 more...

Thanks for all the advice =) So I cut my bars today I had a few air bubbles in the soap so I will have to mix it more carefully & it gelled in the middle only I wasn't aiming for gelling or not gelling but I think I've decided from now on to not gel my soap. So next time I will put it in the...

Makes sense! Thanks again Hmm the Uline ones ship to Canada, but I don't like how they have red stitching =(

So glad I asked because I would have hated to order a bunch & my soap not fit! :shock: I was thinking the 3 wide would work. THANK-YOU!! Off to browse that site you mentioned now. :)

Update=) Okay FINALLY on monday (the 13th) I made my first batch of soap following my above recipe. Everything went well I made the exact amount to fill my mold. It seems firm but I am going to wait until tomorrow to unmold it. It smells fresh like soap! I got a tiny bit of soda ash not too...

So I've decided I would like to package my soap in muslin bags. My soap is 2.5"x3.5"X1" thick what size muslin bags would be ideal? 3x4? 3x5? 4x6? Anyone have experience with this? & also what websites would you recommend I order from that are Canadian friendly?! Thanks so much ! :smile:

Thanks LunaSkye! I like that yogurt container idea actually. DoryMae, Definitely not insulted. I kinda figured it was going to be a softer soap. Good thing you mentioned because I probably would have tried to take it out of the mold in 2 days. Now I will wait 4 days or longer? Maybe I should...

Hi everyone! I have been researching soap making for quite some time now. I've finally gathered all my materials I need & would like to start making some soap soon! I've decided to avoid animal products & palm oil. I have made a 2lb log mold (7" x 3.5" x 2.5") & a 6lb log mold (20" x 3.5 x...
