Avon has these Silicone molds for 9.99

Made my first Salt bars a few days back. I used some blue color and when I mixed it , it seemed to morph. I thought it was going to be gray but then it turned sort of pinkish so I just cut and put in the curing room. I checked it yesterday and it was a nice lavender color. I have never used a...

Paula it is fun. I have had three soap making classes here at my house too. Can't wait to make some more this week. I am trying to get ahead on soap so I will have plenty cured for Christmas presents and gifts for different occoasisons. It goes fast but is so much better after curing for...

I just mixed some colorant colors from Bramble berry together in an oz of water till I got the color i though woould work. I then poured up about 1 1/2 cups of soap batter at trace and mixed then poured in a circle back in to soap pot and then poured into mold with out stirring. It turned out...

Thanks Kassandra

Have made a few very scrumptious bars of soap in between all I have going on. Showed my DIL how to make soap while she is here. we made this yesterday afternoon with the help of my granddaughter. This is Orange Blossom. It smells so good. Some chamommille on the tray too. I also made some...

Okay, I need to get on to bed. Nite. have a good nite at work.

What recipe did you use Kassandra? I just used 8 Oz of OO, 8 of CO, 1 of Castor, 1 oz shea butter, 16 oz of Lard. I added a little over 1 oz of GM canned at trace. Added FO and color. I haven't tried this before. I did run it through a Soap Calc

Okay it traced and is poured. I did not insulate since i added GM. It seems to heat it up. Looks pretty.

Okay, put the grands to bed and have a batch in the bowl. As before it is taking a lot longer to trace. Does anyone else have this problem with lard. I am going to add some GM at trace when it finally gets there. Using Mango Tassi FO with some Coconut Mango mixed in. It should smell good. Just...

Kelly I saw a rcipe on LovinSoap using Lard. I thought I would try it one more time. I made one batch and it was crumbly.I used GM in it too so I don't know what the problem was. I added lye to the goat milk and it was hard to deal with. I probably didn't need to cover it as GM heats it up so...

I made some really pretty pink soap with Rice Flower FO and a little Sandlewood, Lavender Vanilla and Berogmot and white tea mixed togother It is a very lite fragrant soap. I will try and get photos tomorrow if possible. It looks fabulous up beside my Himalayan Bamboo soap. Makes me want those...

Paula I bought that fragrance from Candle Science when they had a big sale on sample sizes of 1 oz. You could buy 3 of each for .99 cents each. I used a drop of Azure blue colorant in a teaspoon of water and then added a bottle of yellow colorant i had from Michaels. The Michaels is not...

Here is my Bamboo soap I thought the color turned out well Here is some Chamomille

Those look great Paula. thanks Glen. You soap colors are really pretty. I just cut my Chamomille and made a small batch of Himalyan Bamboo. I will take pics when I cut it tomorrow. The Bamboo has a grasy clean smell.

Glenolam, I love the size of your soap loafs. Did you buy or make your molds? I would love to have one that size. Love the kid goat mold also. I haven't seen a slab mold like it before. Beautiful. I have been way to busy. In the middle of it I managed to make a batch of chamomille and hope...

Some colors morph too.

Depends on whether you use very nice oils or Lard. Of course you can buy cheap soap at the store but if you ever use some good homemade soap you just won't be able to go back to the stuff you get at the store, or least I feel that way. I think mine comes out to about a 1 dollar a bar if I use...

You did a good job with your honeycomb look. Did you add green color to your chamomille? I bet you wont forget the FO ever again. That sounds like something I would do and then your having to move kind of quick at this point. Thanks for sharing. Bet you come up with all kinds of...

Kassandra that is a intersting color. I would like to see it cut. I forgot to put in FO one time but remembered before I swirled so I added to colored soap and did it like that. It still smelled good even if the swirl was all that had FO
