cwayneu Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 (edited) We had a box of old soaps that did not turn out as we planned, or had a weak scent, or was just plain ugly. Billie decided to put it to use, so we separated bars by similar colors, primarily looking for blues and purples. We put each color group through the salad shredder. Cooked them down in separate crock pots and added more blue or purple. We then dumped the blue and purple globs onto separate freezer paper to cool and harden, and then re-shredded each one. Then made a plain partial CP batch based on adding 23% shreds by weight. We dumped in the two piles of blue and purple shreds, stirred a couple of times and poured into a 15" log mold. Sprinkled a few extras of each on the top, and closed it up. We dosed it with Fierce FO. This is what we got.The confetti logBars after cutting with a waffle cutterCloser look at the bars Edited September 2, 2009 by cwayneu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
