I have several of those same drawer organizers. Have you tried them with CP yet? I hope you're feeling better soon.

@Soaptivated Feeling better Thanks:} I have tried them with CP and sometimes I put a sheet of butcher paper in it.

Hi sweety, so nice to see you again! Ya know, I just love doing the melt and pour, but I cannot sell it for the life of me..very sad :( i think all my customers are just cp people.

@MyNaturesArt This customer had a CP soaper but changed to me because of the frieght charges and I deliver for free they are in my local area which is nice and they are just flying through soaps. I made this same order in Nov,2011 so I am stoked that they are reordering so fast. It pays for all of my soaping and lunch at MD's...lol

@805Soap Thanks Louise I use those amounts for CP soap but I am very confused about scenting M&P - some websites suggest anywhere from 1 tsp to 1 Tbs/lb of M&P soap base. I know that the strength of the FO determines the amount but there is nothing worse than wasting the base on soap that is barely scented in the end. Big letdown.

@mukwah1111 you didn't cross the line with strong Fo I use .8 per lb. of soap and with milder FO I use 1.0 or 1oz. per lb. of soap, I hope that helps :}

@805Soap Oh wow ! Sorry, I didnt mean to cross lines.......
