  6. Okay, newbie that has to have EVERYTHING explained to me here...What kind of wax and wick do you use for those? I have seen the curled wick before...but thats not the kind I have..so just wondering. Also, can you share with me how you swirled the clamshells? Those are really cool by the way. Maybe one I will get good enough to actually have them look like that!
  7. Okay, newbie question. How much FO and how much colorant do you add to a pound of melt and pour soap? I did a batch and when I took them out of the molds, well, they seem slippery and slimy...almost sweaty. Any suggestions? leave it to me to be able to screw up M&P! lol
