Karol,

Yours are still stuck in the mold!!! Someone told me to use Baby oil or mineral oil first before using the mold.

Barbara

I also have an 8 inch impulse sealer I just use it for sealing tarts.

Barbara AL

Scented,

Please tell us what colors you used in the first soap Pretty Please!!!

I like them all but I love the yellow, Green and Gold in the first one.

Barbara

Cool!!!! very Cool looking I like it very much!!

Barb

Yes Castor oil is what makes lather!!!

Barb

If the TD is water soluable I let it sit in the water a while then just before I put it in I pop it in the microwave for a few seconds.

Barbara

Karol,

Are you hinting for me to go to Target for you !!! LOL!!!

Barb

Diamond K,

I think our Local Target has the Silicone for your molds they are Silicone Baking Trays.

HTH

Barbara

Wezzer,

I am sorry about your bad experience with Upland I wish you had ordered from Silvermoon a few months ago.

Silvermoon is probably backed up with orders for several months now.

Barbara AL

I sent Robert at Taylored Concepts Sola's Energy and Milk and Honey hoping he can dupe it maybe give him a try I know Robert has a good Plum scent.

Barbara

Here are the cut pics I had a little ash but took care of it with some alcohol.

Salty Sea Air from Keystone is awesome and Seaside from Millcreek is a good one too.

HTH

Barbara

YAY!!!! Looks like Partylicious!!!! What fun soaps!!!

your soaps are always beautiful!! Kristy.

Barb

If you are doing Salt Bars I do about 21 ounces of oils because the Salt adds some volume to the batch.

Barbara

This is my own blend I just love this scent is smells so clean and Fresh!! Thanks for Looking!!! Barbara

Cut Pics PLEASE!!!!!!!

Barb:D

I mixed three colors together Jbren Hydrated Chromium Green, Neon Blue and Green Oxide. I was just playing around until I got the Teal Blue green I wanted.

Barbara

WOW!!!!!!

:soap baby dance:

The Eucalyptus Fragrance came from Bittercreek North is from a company they bought out BNL (Bubbles & Lights).

Barbara

This is one of my favorite scents in salt bars my first favorite is Salty Sea Air From Keystone Candle Supply

These salt bars were poured in Tony's Mold from Southern Garden Scents.

Thanks for Looking!!

Yes, Birdie was so nice!!! It was really nice to meet everyone I wished we had more time that day to get together and talk.

It was a pleasure to meet Satin Ducky, Diamond K, Alajane, Sheila from Synergy, Ronnie Colvin,(Madison Candle Works),and Paul from Tog Molds Thanks for the demonstration.

The guys from Alabaster were great too with the Demos

Barbara

No Coconut or Palm it will taste like soap. Use a combination of oils Like Tallow/Vegetable oil, Castor, Sunflower, Sesame, Rice Bran, Olive and Cocoa Butter Deordorized.

HTH

Barb

Nothing wrong with that if you are going to use it for yourself and Family it actually looks pretty good I like it!!!

Barb

It get confusing when doing the 50/50 lye water solution sometimes you just have to write it down on paper. If your recipes calls for 6 ounces of Lye you despense 12 ounces of your solution to get the 100 percent lye amount but you need to add back in your water of 6 ounces to get the 33% solution.

HTH

Barbara

So what happened to the soap? Did it accelerate fast? How long ago did you make it? Your lye is the right amount but you sure did a super duper water discount!!

If it hasn't been that long ago I put cut it up in small pieces and cook in the crockpot with the additional 12 ounces you shorted in the soap and do HP.
