KrazeKelly Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 Hi guys!!! It's been forever since I've posted but I come here usually everyday to see what everyone is up too. Sorry I'm a bit of an introvert, apparently online also. ? But here are some of my soaps and a few other things from this past year. This forum is the reason I started making soap. I came here to learn about candles and I used to skip over the bath and body section. I think, somehow I knew if I ever went there I would have to start making soaps too. Ha! So I went there and now I only make candles normally during the fall. So thank you to those still here that I have learned much from. ??? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Candybee Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 I would love to know how you get pictures on your soap if you don't mind sharing. Have you ever thought of doing a tutorial on it? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you ever thought of doing a tutorial on it? Are you talking about the Peacock soaps?? If so, it's very easy. Those are actually napkins I had left over from my daughters wedding. I pulled the top printed layer off and cut pieces to fit the soap. Then you just lay them on the soap and gently wet it til it sticks. I just dribbled water on with my fingertips. Don't rub it or move it around or it will tear easily. Just press lightly. ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know, I hardly sell anything on my website. But all my local customers like having a place to go look at what I have available. I even contemplated closing it down this year but decided to go ahead and keep it. Normally at Craftfairs I charge 6.00 or 4 for 20.00 and they sell well at that price. I just don't see anyone paying much more for them around here. But you're right, I do put some good stuff in them. ? Thank you again!

Jcandleattic Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 I charge the same for mine at craft fairs Kelly, and they sell very well here at that price. Most of my sales are the 4 for 20, but every now and then, some will buy individuals, but mostly they are looking for a "deal". I figure it's good for them and me, because I sell more of my stock, and they get a good price. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm currently buying them from Colonial Tin That is where I get them also. I only buy them when they have them 4 for 38.00 or 42.00. There sales seem to vary in price.

debratant Posted May 21, 2016 Share Posted May 21, 2016 Absolutely stunning as usual! I really LOVE the first bar with the oats on top. Not sure how you achieved that coloring, but it's amazing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
