Guest guest Posted January 17, 2006 Report Share Posted January 17, 2006 you can always use a rubber stamp. is doesn't have to be a stamp made just for soap. i have used rubber stamps before. If you want a custome one you can take a B & W design to places like office max and kinkos and they will make you up a stamp. Prices vary but are all in all not a bad price for a rubber stamp. Or it can be other types not just rubber. Also I know of someone in a nother forum who was akinging her own soap stamps out of fimo dough. If ya want i might be able to get more details on that. > > Has anyone had custom soap stamps made? I just did a search on Google and I > am not finding what I want.

Guest guest Posted January 17, 2006 Report Share Posted January 17, 2006 Hi Shyra: I have a friend down this way that had one done for a wedding. It was metal, possibly Aluminum? Maybe not, considering reactions with caustic. I can ask her where she got it if you like. She did say a lot of places are slow and the one she used was pretty quick.

Guest guest Posted January 18, 2006 Report Share Posted January 18, 2006 Shyra, Found a couple of sites: http://www.soapimpressions.com/ http://www.owossographic.com/index2.htm I've also read that you can find " a rubber stamp you like and press it into femo...bake it ... take that impression and fill it with femo , and gently take it out of the impression and bake that one then adhere that to a wood block. It works much better if the design is not too busy. " www.BlueMountainBotanicals.com Custom Soap Stamps Has anyone had custom soap stamps made? I just did a search on Google and I am not finding what I want. I keep getting companies that sell stamps - mostly Milky Way Mold ones. ~Shyra A.

Guest guest Posted January 18, 2006 Report Share Posted January 18, 2006 I found one place that made them, but they are copper. Not too sure how copper would react with soap. Anyone know? They also say it can take up to 8 weeks to get the stamp. That's an AWFULLY long time! If you could ask her, that would be wonderful! Someone suggested I try a print shop. Now, I have to find a place that's not Staples, Office Max, UPS Store, Kinko's...LOL ~Shyra A.

Guest guest Posted January 18, 2006 Report Share Posted January 18, 2006 That is exactly what I Googled and I got 3 pages of places that sold rubber stamps for rubber stamping/scrapbooking and a ton of pages of Milky Way Stamps. I did find Soap Impressions. That's the company with the copper stamps and I am not sure how it would react with the soap. ~Shyra A.

Guest guest Posted January 18, 2006 Report Share Posted January 18, 2006 What is femo? I found Soap Impressions and their stamps are copper. Is Copper safe with soap? I know aluminum isn't. but what about after it's cured for like a week? There's no lye then...well, I hope there isn't any! ~Shyra A.

Guest guest Posted January 18, 2006 Report Share Posted January 18, 2006 Fimo is a polymer clay. I've never used it though, so can't offer much on that. I really don't know about the reaction of the metals but I got the two sites that I posted earlier from a soaper's forum and several people had commented on good results with stamps from them. So I guess both are okay. www.BlueMountainBotanicals.com RE: Custom Soap Stamps What is femo? I found Soap Impressions and their stamps are copper. Is Copper safe with soap?
