I just poured my first batch of CP soap yesterday also!. I can so relate to the fears. I have had all my oils and everything else for months. For some reason I was just so scared to jump into actually doing it. Well I will know about 3PM Eastern as that is when I uncover it. But, I know one problem already. I did line the wooden mold with freezer paper, but when I placed the wooden lid on the soap, I never thought to cover it with the freezer paper first! Darn, Darn, Darn!
