Guest guest Posted September 20, 2005 Report Posted September 20, 2005 I've been making M & P soap, for family use. But as I'm hoping to get " rid " of the little one for a couple of hours, 3x a week come January, I've been THINKING about actually trying to make lye soap... my question... can I use the same plastic molds that I've used for my Melt and Pour or do I have to use sumpin else? -- Cheers!

Guest guest Posted September 20, 2005 Report Posted September 20, 2005 Hey Kathleen, Great to see you take the soaping plunge! You'll be hooked I'm sure! You prolly can use them, but you can also a milk carton, cardboard box, shoe box, juice container, or just about anything really. You'll be surprised at how you look at items once you've made a batch of soap. lol Good luck and let us know how it goes for you. Margaret > >I've been making M & P soap, for family use.

Guest guest Posted September 20, 2005 Report Posted September 20, 2005 Hey Margaret, Won't be until the Little Boy is out of the house. I just can't risk him being around... So January at the earliest. Will let y'all know though what happens. ;-) K On 9/19/05, Margaret Helm-Duell <naturalindulgences wrote: > > Hey Kathleen, > > Great to see you take the soaping plunge!

Guest guest Posted September 20, 2005 Report Posted September 20, 2005 At the beginning I did use the same molds for melt and pour to make my cp soap. It did not sell and did not sell until I went to a conventional size soap bar. 3 x 2.5 x 1. Then it flew off the shelf. Go figure. Zo > I've been making M & P soap, for family use.

Guest guest Posted September 20, 2005 Report Posted September 20, 2005 Hi Zo, Were the original soaps larger or smaller than the " conventional " bar size that you're using now? Also were they plain molds or fancy molds (like Milky Way Molds for example)? *Smile* Chris (list mom) The Vanilla Bean Blow Out http://www.alittleolfactory.com <http://www.alittleolfactory.com/> Cranberry & Raspberry Seed Oil Sale http://www.aftertherayne.com/vanilla.htm Think left and think right and think low and think high.
