Morgaine Consistency is one of the keys for selling at the FM. Customers want to know that you will be there every week (hopefully in the same space). I would bring what you had with a large sign "Coming Next Week" and list your other soaps..

breconbcs Yes, the mold is dishwasher safe, although the residual soap may make too many bubbles for the dishwasher

I know, I am just in awe. I knew we did well, but it wasn't till we got home and counted that I realized it was so much. I sold all 7 samplers and I'm also selling the little sample bars for $.50 each or 5 for $2. Those did well, and if someone bought a bar I would throw in a small bar for free. I wish I would have brought my camera because I liked the way I set up better this time.

That's what I'm thinking too, thanks. It just didn't feel right to skip like that. Kinda like I was skipping class, lol.

Congrats on doing so well at the FM! I have to agree with MLF, go next weekend and put up a sign of what you will be bringing the following weekend. You never know, you may even get some orders for them.

That batch has a Jasmine scent to it.

MLF, thanks for the info about the mold. I thought it would be safe to put in the dishwasher but just wanted to be sure.

I just did a Calendula soap (I knew I kept that smaller slow cooker for a reason), and then added some lavendar scent. I put some of the petals on top and there are pieces of petals mixed into the soap. Here it is just poured into the mold.

Hopefully it turns out...

Looks bautiful in the mold!

Just a FYI, the sides of my mold lock real tight into the groove on the bottom. I don't use the bolt and wingnut
