M&P Mold Help

[CountryGal]

I have a plastic M&P mold that has a design in the bottom. I saw where someone had the inside of the design filled with one color and the rest of the mold was a different color. How do you just get the design part colored without messing up the rest of the mold??? :undecided

Usually what I've seen with molds like that is not actually the poured soap being a different color, but after it's unmolded they actually paint the design part of it. I've seen some very lovely paint jobs on soap before, and it can be done to where it doesn't look like paint, but that the actual soap was that color when it's actually not.

HTH a little.

paint? hmm...what kind of paint would you use? It sure looks like soap! (thinking that I might not use this mold)

pour very carefully and quickly with a tiny spouted cup or whatever, and then I take a q-tip or equivilent and fix my mistakes or drips.

Of course, you could do like I did this weekend, and just do the whole bottom one color and then the rest a contrasting color-lazy girls way but hey it still looks good.
