    Does anyone know where to get lids for these? https://www.anchoronline.com/specials/8oz-hourglass-jar-s3733-12.html

    Why not embed the picture into the wax? That's the way I always do my hurricanes. I think there is a tutorial on this I've had great luck with it.

    I didn't think so boo hoo I have limited space & thought that would work great to be able to stack them on top of each other . Back to the drawing board.

    I just bought some Sterilite containers to put my soaps in. My question is will they dry as quickly & thoroughly in these with a lid on them as they would in the open air? Probably a dumb question but then maybe not. I had some in a plastic drawer & they seem still kind of tacky to the touch. Hope I'm making sense.

    I was wondering if you had the other label & what it looks like?

    Very nice pretty colors

    Very cute soapies

    I have it stored in a plastic canister that I bought at Dollar Tree. You know it could be that maybe some moisture got in the container? Is this possible maybe. I'm at a loss idk.

    Here are the cut pics & I'm hoping you can help with something else. They both are I call it "bleeding" oils. Not sure why this happened maybe the over heated not sure. I did the zap test & there is no zap. I'm at a loss on this one. Uploaded with ImageShack.us

    Well not at all what I was going for but they will have to do. Both of them a bleeding oils a little not sure what caused that. I did the tongue test & no zap. I'm hoping it was maybe that the lye was old or something. Thanks for looking. Uploaded with ImageShack.us

    I'll try to get a pic posted sometime today. It looks like green & red monster vomit to me :laugh2:

    Very pretty colors & swirls I like it

    No this wasn't made with the new lye I'm making new soaps today with the new lye. I've had that other lye for quite a while but the other bars all turned out fine. I think it was a combo of forgetting an oil, over heating & possibly false trace althoug it was thick when I poured it. Oh well live & learn & hopefully not do it again :laugh2:I hate hate hate wasting supplies

    You know I was wondering if lye goes bad or whatever. Something seemed different I just got new lye in today. Guess it couldn't be the lye though really because other batches have been fine. Hmmmmmmmmmm

    Well this batch bombed & I had to rebatch it I'm very pleased with the Cucumber Melon 2 lol
  17. ladysj
    I know I'm soooooooo pisssssssssssssed. I threw it in a pot added the palm & reheated it all til it was liquid & gently mixed. We'll see how the rebatch comes out. As a matter of fact I was soooooooooo mad I was not going to be defeated. I just finished my 2nd batch & it turned out good. I did it just to piss the soap off. :laugh2:
  18. ladysj
    Beaten but no defeated on the first batch. I was soooooooooooo mad that I had to rebatch the first batch I made another one :laugh2:It's colored with apple green & raspberry pop micas. Uploaded with ImageShack.us

    I went from this picture to the 2nd picture with in about 30 mins time. What happened? It's nothing but oil on the top. Okay I think I know what happened - I don't remember adding the palm wax. Would that cause it to do this & is there anything I can do to save it now? DAMN it. I was soooooo excited about this one & couldn't wait to cut it.

    I once again had to improvise from my original idea. Ran out of the darker colors. So I'm excited to see what the underneath looks like after I cut it. The bottom part is a very dark green & red with poppy seeds in the red to represent the seeds alas I didn't have enough to fill the mold with those colors & it was suppose to be a mantra swirl :laugh2:So I think I'll name this Cucumber Melon Surprise & I forgot my sodium lactate & solu-silk. I really can't wait to see what the bottom looks like. I'm kind of excited on this par. I need more molds bad, bad, bad Uploaded with ImageShack.us

  22. ladysj

  23. ladysj
    Thank you soooooooooo much for that info I didn't know that about canola I'll swap part of it out for another oil.
  24. ladysj
    Oh very pretty I can't wait to see your posted results.
  25. ladysj
    :laugh2:Ya know that's a really good question. It was some I bought off the classies it just said pink. When I mixed it, it sure wasn't pink so I kept adding some uncolored until I got what I thought would be pink. I think maybe I'd like it to darken just a little bit.
