Carlena Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 I'm making Goats Milk soap for the 1st time & it turned out 'lovely' - but, am wondering how do I paint them? With what kinds of paint & where do you purchase them at? I've called Hobby Lobby & Michaels & neither store has it. Has anyone ever done this sort of thing before? If so, can you please explain the procedure to me? Thanks Bunches:) ~Carlena~www.carlenascreations.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meridith Posted July 25, 2008 Share Posted July 25, 2008 I have the soap paints from MW and they don't work well at all. It is hard to get the paint to show on them and what you can get to show takes a lot of time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soap paints are made for soap and are safe for use on the body. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlena Posted July 29, 2008 Author Share Posted July 29, 2008 I got this from Michaels(Delta Ceramcoat) & it says on the bottle Non-Toxic, Waterbased for Easy Clean-Up,,,,Add to your favorite Acrylic Paint colors for better adhesion to waxy surfaces like candles & soaps....I took a shower this morning & had the painted bar of soap & when the water hit it; the paint washed right off....so all that hard work was gone.....here is what it looked like after I painted it & now its all white again after showering(it didnt stain a thing): Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
