I'm so excited to be moving to warmer weather. Sooooo cold here. I have been making soap, mostly M & P for about a year now. Made my 1st batch of CP in Jan. My day is just not complete if I don't do something concerning soapmaking. How did I ever live without this wonderful hobby??? I am looking forward to all the learning and hope to be able to help someone with answers as well, when ever I can. >> Where in Louisiana will you be moving to ????

Guest guest Posted May 23, 1999 Report Share Posted May 23, 1999 I thought I would introduce myself. Being a list junkie and all, I usually lurk for awhile before posting! My name is Lori and I have been making soap for 5 years. CP goat's milk is all I do. I have a business " Irish Hearth Soaps " which I now do full time. I love soap and all soap related things. I am married with 3 animal children (2 birds, 1 cat). I have 3 college degress, none of which are related to soaping or business! (wasted money, I hate to think <g>). I live outside of Chicago, just moved there from Colorado. So that's me! Good to meet you all!

Pringles containers work nicely (one time use though). Also Tupperware loaf container#12 (hard to find but you can get online), Pampered chef tube bread molds- these are star shaped and some other shapes as well, and I have also gotten plastic micro wave meatloaf pans in the dollar store. I also got a PVC downspout-about 12 inches long and they make a real nice shaped bar.It is really not hard to do; I for one am scared of cold process & lye!!

I have gotten little necklaces, pencil toppers, bugs etc from a party store. Oriental trading is also a good source. I like making little ones for the kids. I got egg poaching plastic pans in the dollar store and have also used the bottom half of a plastic cup. I leave the M & P clear or color with gold mica just to get a bit of a sparkle. Pour the M & P and wait til it forms a slight skin on top, then pull back skin and insert the toy- this will let the toy float a bit- if the soap is too hot it will sink. Remove that little skin. Voila! I also use kids types of FO's- cherry, banana, chocolate, bubblegum etc. who is still practicing!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It smells a little like double bubble, but has minty tones to it and I did notice if you have a open area on the skin it does tend to tingle but not really bad enough not to use. I even like using it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
