You can either soap with your oils & lye a bit warmer or put your mold with the soap in it on a heating pad on warm for a few hours.
-
If you can't download the Avery from their website you can call them and they will send it to you on a disc.
-
Just do a repour and you should be fine.

I find a bit more than 1/2 oz per lb of wax is plenty.
-
Soapfreak .. what supplier carries the FD & C Lake?
-
I used to use the French milled M&P from the Soap Saloon in California and loved it. It was harder than regular M&P which make the bars last a long time.
-
Wow, those are beautiful soapies.
-
I can't imagine buying lye if it's going to be packaged in zip lock bags. The bags can easily be damaged in shipping even if they are packaged in a flat rate or UPS box. I don't mind at all paying the hazmat fee when I purchase it in 40 or 50 lb lots because it's still much cheaper than buying at a hardware store.

It is reviewed on page 3 ..Black Raspberry Vanilla/Black Raspberry Creme.

TSW=The Scent Works
-
The BRV f/o's from Peaks and TSW don't discolor at all in CP.
-
Peaks BRV is great and so is the one from The Scent Works.

I use the 92 degree coconut from Columbus Foods and it is hard year round. I love it.
-
I just placed an order at Columbus Foods yesterday and the coconut has gone down since I ordered last. My rationale is since coconut has gone down I can offset the decrease by keeping the babassu in my soap. I love what babassu does to my soap and will keep purchasing it regardless of the price.

I use less than 1/2 of the regular amount of lavender as you normally use of other f/o's because it is so strong.
-
Sometimes I so hate making votives!

You probably have an uneven pouring area. Put a level on it to see how level it really is. Don't know about the bubbles unless you are stirring some air into the wax. -
Another one you have to try is the French Vanilla & Amber. Amish Harvest is great, Sandalwood is very nice ... I could go on and on about their oils.
-
I mix Peak's patchouli with Peak's lavender in CP soap and sometimes I add a bit of their key lime with it. Go easy on their lavender as it is killer strong. You are going to love it:yay: .

Roebic Crystal Drain Opener at Lowes
Scent Cellar replied to anabanana's candles's topic in General Soap Making
You can order it in bulk from Boyer. Nice & free flowing and doesn't clump. -
The oils from Peaks are top notch and are well worth waiting a week. I don't consider that a long time to wait.
-
You might like Wild Raspberry. It's from Peaks also.
-
Black Canyon might be a good one.
-
I don't know about it in candles as I have not put it in wax but it's very, very strong in CP soap and one bar will scent your bathroom for a long time.

Hi Mike, Good to see you over here.
-
I agree with you, Glo, this recipe is a winner.
