Darn, never had one problem with WSP. They once put the wrong fragrance in my box when I went to pick up, and mailed me the right fragrance the next day (since I could not go and pick it up for awhile) I practically feel like family when I go to pick up my orders, they see my face at least 4 times a month. They know me and J by name, lol. Spinning the prize wheel is fun too:drool:. Won a pound of diffuser oil a few weeks ago. Their selection is top notch, so I better stay on my best behavior. Sorry to hear you had problems and became banned :embarasse. The donation thing is easy, if you do not want to donate then pick no donation. Once a person orders a few times they know to look for the donation thing and change it if they do not want to donate. It is always there. On another note, I have a few banned customers too. All the money in the world would never persuade me to take another dime of their money. Some customers just give a company too many problems (not saying anyone here did!) and its better for that company to let them "go." I have no patience anymore for PITA customers who find something wrong with everything and seem to be looking for freebies all the time. I used to be a sucker but the past 2 years have really taught me that if a person thinks they can walk all over you and get what they want, they will. Sorry, that was a mini rant. Had a rotten experience the other day...

Geez, I should just quit, who can follow up on that piece of beauty?!

Ash is something that will happen no matter what you try sometimes. I have just learned to love it:laugh2:

I wonder if the soap was from this Hawaiian Soap Company:

They look spectacular. Soap fairies are the reason why I stop doing huge batches at once. I just split the batch in two, easier to control.

Definitely overheated. Hope it can be saved!

Oh, Jeff, glad to see you back. I am so sorry to hear about the baby:sad2:

I should have known! Just kidding, gorgy soap!

Thanks! This batch is quite a challenge, the soap comes out differently with each new batch, but so far I have stuck to using charcoal, and 5 of the TKB pop colors for the swirl. Messy, but I love it:grin2:

No biggie, I have been here over 2 years and sometimes the search does not work that well for me either. Search polypro and you should get some results. Also look at the bottom of this very page and you will see some threads about polypro.

Thank you ladies! Of course it makes sense to have this in the business section, why didn't I think of that:laugh2:

The one I make with sunflower does not stink, but the one I made with Rice Bran oil. Let me tell you, I had to throw it out!! Talk about gross.

Thanks:grin2:

I am this week's Etsy success story!! Check it out: http://www.etsy.com/storque/section/spotlight/article/quit-your-day-job-aromaticbodyoils/2559/

I'm with Julie on this one. When you add your lye too warm the soap will automatically take on that bumpy texture on top when the soap is poured into the mold.

I love the molds that I make myself, and the ones that I get from Anhoki: http://www.bunniesworkshop.com/soap_molds.html

Love it! I am definitely getting a pound of that next time I order from TKB. In fact, all the pops are great. I want to find a color wheel for mica because you are supposed to be able to mix them to get any color combo.

Well, you definitely saved me a ton of $$$< I am going with the primary colors. I have been so lazy, all my candles so far have been plain and white (I don't sell them though) but I want color gat darnit!

That soap sounds really luxurious!

That oakmoss is calling my name, its so sexy!

Thanks, I will look into clear decal paper, and on Bramble Berry's site. I will be make the project with mp soap:grin2: Thanks for the info!

The good thing is that it seems she has left me alone. Lesson from all this, double check everything that is packed and make sure each sample has proper labels.:smiley2:

I am on the hunt for the picture paper that we can use for soap. I have a project to do for a club I am in called Mad Scientists of Etsy and I have an idea in my head for it and the picture paper would really help me bring this idea into fruition. I did a search but could not find any help on where to get the actual paper from. Any ideas? Thanks:smiley2:

Aww, thanks sweety! Yes, I received an order yesterday from your recommendation! Thank you so much:highfive: Thanks everyone!
