Keeping pillar moulds up right!

[DucknBear Gracie]

How do people keep their pillar/column moulds upright to pour in soap/keep them upright once full of soap? When i’m using 1 or 2 I put them in an old jar and lean them against my wall, but i’ve chipped a jar and marked my walls and I feel like there’s someone out there with common sense who has a much smarter idea I have 9 and I really want to make a big batch of embeds but it will definitely end in disaster

My latest setup - got the wobbly ones in cardboard tubes…

I use a plastic water pitcher. I only have 1 column mold. I keep the mold upright by tucking rags around the mold.

@DucknBear Gracie Your cardboard tube setup looks just fine to me. I've done something similar using a tall cardboard box with paper, rags, or towels stuffed around the columns to keep them steady.

I hadn't thought of this other than a tall jar. But you know, a cereal box would work out very well. Thanks for the idea!
