friendlyMOM Posted May 12, 2006 Share Posted May 12, 2006 I was so scared that I almost talked myself out of making the saop but last night I got up my courage and cut a recipe in half from the Miller site and all I can say is WOW, I added peach color and peach FO and today it is awesome it set, which I was afraid it would not. Now I have took it out of the mold and cut it but how will I store it for 3 weeks? do I put it all back in the mold or wrap it seperate? I cant wait tobuy more lye and try another one, this one had crisco, coconut oil and olive oil, cant wait to try it out, thank you all for your help you have been so kind and patient Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jwahlton Posted May 12, 2006 Share Posted May 12, 2006 Congratulations :yay: Once it's firm enough cut it, then you can put it on a cookie sheet or something to cure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

friendlyMOM Posted May 12, 2006 Author Share Posted May 12, 2006 I just cut it but its not perfect squares, and do I need to cover it? or just set it aside? I am so pleased with the way it turned out will try to get picture of it too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purple Lilac Posted May 12, 2006 Share Posted May 12, 2006 Congrads on your first batch . Isn't it exciting. You want the air to circulate around your freshly cut soap, so don't cover it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
