    Packaging

    I wish I had been thinking of candles. I could have sounded smart! Lol. No, I was thinking of little mini soaps. The whole cleanliness factor never even occurred to me. Oh well. I'll find something else to use them for I guess. I'm still waiting for the Soap Makers Companion book to get...

    Packaging

    Hey. Would it be possible to reuse jars are a way to package stuff? Like could I use sauce jars or pickle jars or salsa jars with the labels peeled off? Can you just buy lids that fit onto them somewhere? It seems that would be cheaper, if you only had to buy lids as opposed to lids and...

    Soap Pot Weekend 10/5-10/7

    Tabitha, can I ask where you get your MP bases from? Mine is nowhere near as clear as yours is. Do you add something in it or do you just get a really good base? Sorry. This doesn't have much to do with what I'm making this weekend...Lol.

    Tattoos

    I got my first one this past February. It's a heart with dice inside it on the inside of my ankle. I got it for my daddy. :) I really want a few more. I'd like to get one for my mom (a little tiny ladybug) one for my hubby (an infinity symbol with a 'd' on each side) and one with my SIL...

    The question game

    If you meant "poopies" LOL, I'd have to say dairy has been getting to me pretty bad lately. I never used to be this way only as late, but I'll deal. No way I'm living without cheese and cream! Hee hee. What CD do you own that you could not live without?

    Fragrance

    I'm sorry. I know I'm kind of monopolizing everything here. So I tried a bunch of different fragrances last night. Some I really liked, but most I was not so happy with after the soap was done. :( Is it possible the scent would smell different (stronger or fainter or...something) if I used...

    MP Colors

    Ah. That makes slightly more sense. Lol. I suppose eventually once I learn what the heck I'm doing, I won't be spending half of my waking life making soap. But it's fun. At this point I wouldn't mind adding a couple of more days a week. But ask me how I feel in a year! Lol. I'm asking...

    MP Colors

    Grrrr. Tabitha, I tried the swirling but I'm too slow. Lol. The whole bottom was solid by the time I poured the top and tried to mix. So I just ended up poking holes with a toothpick all the way to the bottom hoping maybe I could get a polka dotted effect, but I just got 2 seperate layers...

    MP Colors

    Thanks guys. I was spraying with alcohol, but I don't really think I was using enough. I was afraid the soap would come out smelling like alcohol, but I tried it with some watermelon scented soap that I did green on the bottom and pink on top. I used quite a bit of alcohol this time. Stayed...

    MP Colors

    Is there a generally accepted amount of time to wait between colors when doing MP soap? I'm having a hard time timing it correctly. They either blend together or seperate. I made this really cool candy corn soap but then it came apart. Le sigh. Oh, also, can I just melt some soap and use it...

    Hi!

    I don't know anything, but thanks for thinking I might! Lol. I think (from reading this forum) I may have a bad batch of MP base that I'm working with. I ordered the first one from Sweet Cakes and the soap was good, but pretty expensive. This one I got from Fullers Soap and it hardens almost...

    Hi!

    Hi everyone. This is my first post. I've been lurking around for a few days. I've only just started to make melt and pour soap. It's a blast. I love it! But after checking out this board I really want to try to make some body butter. I didn't even know you could make all the stuff you...
