jdscreations Posted June 13, 2007 Share Posted June 13, 2007 Okay, so I finally took the plunge and got a CP soap kit and broke it open today. Had everything lined up and ready to go...at least I thought. When I was ready to pour into my mold I realized I didn't line it. So I remembered someone saying that you could use a trash bag. Then after I poured I remembered I didn't add scent. Oh well. At least I tried. Maybe next time. Dawn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

katshe Posted June 13, 2007 Share Posted June 13, 2007 Great Job, I have read many posts here about forgetting the scent. I'v only made one batch myself and it is so exciting to see your creation turn into soap. Now you're hooked. Let us know how the soap turns out.

jdscreations Posted June 13, 2007 Author Share Posted June 13, 2007 Thanks guys. When I unwrapped it this morning, I saw some green instead of all brown . I like it though. I did cut it and will post pics later today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
