Guest guest Posted March 30, 2001 Report Share Posted March 30, 2001 Hey, all! Basically, I went to and typed in "melt and pour soap" to see what I could find. Just wanted to see what sites were out there and maybe see if I could find some examples of other people's MP soap to give me ideas for my own craft projects. Well, a BUNCH of sites came up that talked about how you can't make true soap without lye, how MP soap isn't really soap and is just detergent, etc. etc. I started to get frustrated. The stuff that I make, I consider that soap! I'm not letting it bother me. I know that I am not buying the best MP soap base. The reason behind that is because I am still learning about all of this and wanted to buy some cheap stuff first to experiment with so that if I messed up it wouldn't be a big deal. In the coming months, though, I'm going to start ordering some good-quality MP soap base off the Internet, but right now I've been spending WAY too much on hobby supplies, and I need to back away for a while!!! But yes, I know that I need to buy better soap base, and I plan to do that in the near future. I experimented the other day with embedding things in my soap bars. They turned out ... well, interesting. Basically, I cut up/shaved the soap bars that I didn't really like and that didn't turn out very well and used them in other bars of soap. I was just experimenting. I'm attaching some photos of what I did ... I think they're pretty, but kind of unusual. The first one is chocolate-mint; the second one is raspberry-honey-almond; the third one is raspberry-mint; and the fourth one is sun-ripened raspberry. nne (Albany) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
