I would love to see pictures of it when you unmold. It sounds so nice!

I got my order from from Southern Garden Scents. I reordered 1# Dragons blood and 8 oz sandalwood ylang( love this scent,) I'm going to try to make some perfume just for me with the sy. I also did their little samplers. There was more in there than I thought would be. I really like the Bacci de Miele, it does smell just like honey, yummy! I'll get some of that on my next order. Wild Fig was ok, a bit too woodsy maybe. Witches tea ok, I might order it. Pink Sugar, eh, I expected a lot to this scent afte reading reviews, but it smells like cotton candy perfume. Not my style. Patchouli Musk, yuk, way too musky. And I got a coupon code for 10% off

I'm really liking this company!

Has anyone here made liquid soap from scratch before with potasium hydroxide? I just checked out a book about it from the library. I think I'm going to try the paste method first.

Morgaine, when you order from AAA do you get the food grade lye or the other one?

I really like the texture of your tops, looks like gently rolling waves. Is that two batches? I'm seeing two different colors between the photos.

I got the tech grade. Cheaper and that was the one they reccomend for soap when I e-mailed them.

I had to take pictures inside the house because it's been raining today. I took them at 2 different angels and two different settings.
