Good Morning.....
Here in Victoria its deep winter, and snow has fallen on the Mountains an hour away from where I live. Its also very windy today, so not even fun for me to go out for a walk, even though the sun is out. As I get older I find the cold weather impacts my aches and pains!! Hope you are warm where you are. I have my woodfire going 24/7 this time of year. ๐ฅ๐ฅ
So its a good day to make some more Soap!! When I make Soap it stays in the moulds for one or two weeks and then when I cut the Soap or pop it out of the silicon moulds, it has to sit somewhere dry and airy for up to a month or more. This allows excess water to evapourate and allows the Soap to Cure. This means it hardens and also means your Soaps will last longer.๐๐
So when you buy my Soap it has been laid out on towel covered boards and put up high on shelves in my Laundry. As I make more Soap and get to the cutting stage, all my Soaps are moved down a shelf. The boards on the lower shelves are ready to use and the higher up ones need to sit for a month or more before I can package or sell them.๐ฟ๐ฟ
Sometimes I have Seconds Soap. This is Soap that I cut a bit wonky, or are a bit too small, or the colour may have faded, or maybe even I put a little too much Salt in the mix and its made the Soap crumbly. That does not happen as much anymore. Plus I often will weigh out half bars of Soap and turn them into Soap Stacks.๐๐
Feel free to message me to ask if I have any Seconds Soaps!! I sell them at a cheaper price than my others Soap Bars. I will weigh out some Soaps and add some photos here of some of my Seconds, with prices!
