You can also use glassine bags, like these:

I got I think 1ooo for about $15 from a local restaurant supply store.

That's what I use too!

Do labels stick to those glassine bags?

Do labels stick to those glassine bags?

Yes they do. Clear labels look awesome and almost like they're printed on the bag.

I will have to try them.

@Sharee - If you're doing M&P soap, they absolutely need to be plastic wrapped to assist in keeping the humidity away. I've found that even in Sunny, low humidity Phoenix my M&P soaps have sweated and formed soapy crystals....

We want to prepare a try me box for our first soaps and want to give friends a small box with samples of our soap.

I have a question - how do we contain the smell of each individual soap? Is there a tissue-wrap special paper we can use to wrap each soap bar? Or are we over-thinking this?

Any advice much appreciated.

Glassine paper bags are very good for containing the smell and keeping the soap in good condition
