  1. I use lemongrass essential oil from WSP.
  2. I must be the lone man out because I didn't have good luck with Select Shades. However, I love oxides & ultrmarines in my CP. Also I like some of the Neons.
  3. Hint .. reward those UPS guys & gals with free soap and they will carry many, many lbs of oils to where you want them stored.
  4. I thought I had everything figured out that I wouldn't have to place another order for oils with Columbus Foods until fall but my gardener's soaps are selling like crazy so I had to place an order yesterday morn. I got my order via UPS before noon today (26 hrs after placing my order:yay: ) and the UPS man rang my doorbell and waited for me to answer the door and then he carried the boxes into my screen porch rather than letting them sit in the sun. Kudos to both Columbus Foods & my UPS man.
  5. What about out sourcing it first to see how the product takes off and once you know that factor you can decide whether it's worth buying & putting the equipment in your facility. Would you rent a building or purchase a building? Either way, that is alot of cash outlay especially in these financially troubled times.
  6. I really would have all the work outsourced. I saved an article I found in Happi about this but can't remember right now where it is.
  7. It sounds like you had a great time making the layered soap. Post of picture when you cut it.
  8. My neighbor lady has a ceramic shop and has 2 kilns... and a basement with hundreds and hundred of molds. It's amazing. She did it full time when she was younger but now has her shop open only 2 days a week but quite a few ladies come in regularly to paint on their projects. If you have a specific question just pm me and I will ask her for you.
  9. Jeff, thank you for answering a question I was wondering about if the molds need to be seasoned or not and how to do the seasoning.
  10. I haven't heard a peep on my order. I just gave them a "ship it or cancel it" message on the phone. How can you run a business when customer communication is zilch?
  11. No updates on my order of May 16 either. I am going to try calling them tomorrow to cancel but how can I cancel if they don't answer the phone?? Some good news is that my Tank soap cutter arrived so I am amusing myself with it. What a wonderful piece of equipment it is and so well built also.
  12. I have had excellent service and products from them. Don't hold your breath while you are waiting for them to make the shopping cart user friendly:wink2: .
  13. No, it's not too early at all. In fact, I like my soaps better the longer they are cured.
  14. I have several favorites Black Raspberry Vanilla Satsuma Almond Coconut Lime Verbena
  15. Why don't you get a jacket wax melter?
  16. I like using log molds so that's what I would chose.
  17. Do you want pictures of the empty bottles or the wine box? :laugh2: Did I mention the box has two dividers in it also?
  18. at Sam's Club on Sunday for $20 :yay: and it included 3 bottles of wine:tiptoe: :tiptoe: :tiptoe: .
  19. Has anyone that ordered an Upland mold when they reopened for business received theirs yet? I am not so patiently waiting and am chomping at the bit to get mine. I ordered on May 16th.
  20. Our area had a community sale today. Best sellers in soap were goatsmilk, lemon verbena, gardener's soap, and black raspberry vanilla. I had quite a few repeat customers from last year and hopefully the word will spread about my soap.
  21. If you have essential oils I would use 1 oz of Patchouli and 1 oz of either sweet orange or 5 folded orange. It's a blend that I love.
  22. It's one of my favorites and I AM WOMAN (hear me roar).
  23. Vegan soap scented with patchouli should do the trick.
  24. Wholesale Supplies Plus just announced that their soy from EcoSoya is going DOWN by 5 cents a lb so maybe that is a sign of things to come.
  25. Eugenia, did you get a resolution to your shipping of the rice bran oil?
