Wowsers, I think I need you to mentor me.

I guess it's all personal preference, the first soap I tried was CP. I am soooooo wanting to try liquid soap & cream soap but for some reason I think of every excuse in the book NOT to, go figure:undecided .

Actually that makes me feel better, cuz now I know I'm not the only one that does it that way, lol.

how many drops of FO do you use? I just want to make some individual sprayers in a few scents.

How the heck much FO do u put in to make the scent last all day- 1/2 & 1/2?

I have a templete of my label size so I just go to print and can print out a whole sheet or one design multiple times wherever I want (I can print one label in column 1 row 3, etc) which works great, I just wanna place all that I am printing on one sheet and print all at once.

I did it once before, but of course I didn't write down the steps and I can not for the life of me figure it out. I want to print different labels on one sheet all at once (ex. van lotion, van butter, etc). Not having any luck with the help file either although that is how I found the directions in the first place. Help anyone???:embarasse

I haven't been brave enough to try either, still reading and just haven't worked up the nerve. I do have a question though, they way I am understanding it is that cream soap u need to add a preservative and liquid you don't, is that correct and if so, why? thanks

that is just way too kewl!! I'm pm'n u dammit!!

Wowsers, they are fabulous & meltdowns is the PERFECT name for them!!! I can see the beginning of the "meltdown craze", pretty soon everyone is must have em!! Congrats!!

Phew- I'm glad I'm not the only one that was thinking that......:embarasse

So far I've used the divider and make two 2lb batches at once. Still waiting for the bars to cure, still haven't cleaned em up so I'm not sure what the actual size will be but I don't use the boxes either. Oh yeah and one 2lb batch with chunks thrown in makes 16 perfect sized bars, lol.

Ummm is there a trick to cutting? Somehow I managed to cut my bars crooked. Only me, I swear........

Ditto that, I bought the liquid soap book too & wanted the cream soap one instead.

Oh you are sooo right, I finally had a chance to use my new mold this weekend and I am soooooo glad I got one- I LUV IT!!! Now to work on my swirling........

I luv the feet!! They look like they fit nicely in your hand.

Hmmm I dunno why you're getting a red x, it works for me. Sorry- I know how aggrevating it is to get those red X's, lol.

I have yet to have a batch that doesn't sweat, but I have never touched it and did the zap test, I just wait a few days and they always go dry up-still leave their markings on the soap though.:undecided

Satsuma, I luvvvvvv Satsuma.

Ok here is what I've been working on.....

I like the flames also, but I don't like the F's-the font or the color.

I just got a HP 1600 & boy were you guys right about the difference between laser & inkjet. I'm still trying to figure out what type of label to use though. I got some samples of the crystal clear labels but the blue in my label looks purple-grrr. Maybe if I switch the color to purple it'll print out blue??lol Question for all you crystal clear users, how well does the label hold up on squeeze bottles? I really liked the vinyl labels for inkjet cuz they didn't crease up, I tried the polyester labels for laser printers but they didn't stick as well as the vinyl or crystal clear. Ok sorry to babble, time to go fiddle around with my printer some more.

Yup, u sure cleared things up, thanks so much for taking the time to explain all that to me.

Did ya get it??!! I went hope to check at lunch and guess what was sitting on my front porch??!!!
