Trying new molds



Since I was working on my black glass stovetop, I didn't use the flash on my camera. I was trying to avoid a bright glare.
I sent for some new types of molds online recently. This one is my favorite! I like the large "bath" size soap, so I was drawn to ordering this style! I will definitely have to order more, so that I can pour a bunch of bars of soap at one time.

This mold consists of two parts: One is decorated with a design on the surface, and the other has an arched shape. The mold comes with two very wide and strong elastic bands, to hold the molds together tightly. After preparing the scent and the color that I wanted, I poured it into the little opening at the top of the double mold, which stands upright, once it's banded together.


Out comes a rather heavy bar of soap that rolls nicely in your hands and lasts quite awhile.
Update: I have sent for some more molds with initials on them. The only people who will be recipients of these soaps will have to have certain last names, as I only ordered the L and the D. (You all know who you are!)
