    They call me Pappy

    Since I hated the idea of being called Grandpa, when my first grandkid was born they decided to call me Pappy. My kids love making me feel old. :) And now, they've done it again. My first grandson arrived this morning. Healthy, 8 lb 12 oz little guy. :)

    Two Salt Soaps from this weekend

    I somehow fit in making two salt soaps yesterday. The first is a Dunes blend I make, Earthy/slight grassy, with a hint of lemon. The second one I got a really pleasant surprise on the scent. I've been working on Ocean/Beach scents, (go figure) and was reading a post about mixing black...

    You have entered a dimension of ....

    To all you moderators, admins and other forum deity's, have you noticed the forum is posting wonky? It's posting responses out of order. I responded and quoted a post an hour before it was posted. http://www.soapmakingforum.com/showthread.php?t=50716 And Boyago, while obviously a talented...

    Salt Soap Attacks

    Sounds like a new movie!! Ok a while back in a thread discussing salt soaps, the discussion of what grain salt to use. Some were saying they use rough, lots (including me) were saying they use fine or medium grain. cmzaha, Carolyn, another avid salt soap junkie, proposed that the useage of...

    Melon Scent

    I'm wondering if anyone has any recommendations for a good watermelon FO. The only EO i've seen, is watermelon seed and I'm looking for the fruit scent. I'd rather it be only watermelon, but as long as it's the dominant scent, a blend will work. Needs to behave in CP. Any recommendations would...

    End of the swirling experiments

    So I think I'm done with the swirling experiments. Found one or two things I'll keep, but most were just for fun. I'm trying more to find things I can duplicate easily. Not sure what I'm going to do with my new collection of swirling toys. ;-) First is a Coconut Mango that I used a tool I call...

    A very sexy dupe

    A few years back, a (now) ex girlfriend bought me some Very Sexy for Men cologne from VS. I love that scent. . Was looking through some supplier sites earlier today and noticed some FO dupes of the cologne. Have any of you played with trying to duplicate this with EO's ? I'm messing with it...

    Soda Ash Experiment

    We were having a discussion, on a thread, about the different processes and how they effect the creation or lack of, soda ash. I volunteered to run a limited experiment, testing the difference in CPOP soaps, covered and uncovered vs refrigerated no gel, covered and uncovered. Here's the start...

    Easy to make wood mold.

    This is a mold I made based upon some wood molds I found on the internet for sale. As usual my first thought is, I could build that. Doesn't always work out for me, be it cost or the occasional "ok, maybe I can't build that", but this one turned out really well. :p It's a great design, and as...

    Three from the weekend

    Three soaps from this weekend. Vanilla Bean, Chocolate Bar, (that smells like chocolate cake instead :neutral:, and Activated Charcoal Salt Bars. Still looking for a scent that comes out like a chocolate bar, if anyone has any input.

    Decided to quit lurking.

    Hello people. I'm Joel and I'm in South Texas. I started making soap with my grandmother years ago, the old fashion way, a long time ago. Then I got back into it about 15 years ago and made quite a bit of soap. Life seemed to get in the way and I quit my soaping for years. A little while back I...
