Makes 2 4-ounce bars.
Materials and Supplies:
8 oz clear glycerin soap base
16 drops soap fragrance
2 4-oz capacity soap molds
"fun foam" alphabet letters
microwave-safe measuring cup (2-cup size)
instant-read thermometer
spray bottle filled with rubbing (isopropyl) alcohol
bamboo skewers
vegetable oil in oil mister or vegetable oil
(do not use pan spray)
Instructions:
Prepare the soap molds by spritzing lightly with vegetable oil sprayer and wiping nearly dry.
Cut clear glycerin soap base in 1-inch chunks. Place four ounces soap in a microwave-safe measuring cup. Heat on High for 15 seconds, then for 5 second intervals until soap is melted. Do not allow soap to boil.
Remove measuring cup from microwave. Stir in 8 drops soap fragrance, mixing thoroughly.
Insert an instant-read thermometer to monitor soap temperature. When thermometer reads 120 degrees (or when soap forms a skin in the measuring cup), move skin aside and gently pour soap into prepared mold, filling the mold 1/4th to 1/3rd full.
While waiting, arrange letters to form the desired name. Reverse each letter (so it points backward) and reverse the order of the letters. Check with a mirror to make sure the name reads correctly when reversed.
Allow mold to stand for 5 to 10 minutes, until it has formed a skin strong enough to support the foam letter pieces. Spritz letters lightly with rubbing alcohol, and place letters in reverse gently on the cooled soap film. Use the bamboo skewers to make any tiny adjustments necessary. Allow to cool for 10 to 15 minutes.
Place remaining 4 ounces soap in measuring cup and heat. Add 8 drops soap fragrance, stir thoroughly and cool to 120 degrees. Pour soap gently over alphabet pieces, adding only enough soap to barely cover. Allow soap in mold to cool and form a skin for 10 to 15 minutes.
When alphabet letters are firmly embedded in cooled soap, reheat the remaining soap in the measuring cup. Stir and cool to 120 degrees. Pour remaining soap into the mold, covering letters completely. Immediately spritz the soap surface with a light mist of rubbing alcohol to control any bubbles that have risen to the surface.
Cool soap completely before attempting to unmold. You may put the mold in the refrigerator to cool, but do not put it in the freezer. Press the mold gently with your thumb to unmold.
Allow soap to cure for 2 to 3 weeks before wrapping. Wrap completed soap with clear plastic food wrap, and attach a gift label with soap contents listed.
Makes 2 4-ounce bars.

A two-in-one gift for a special little girl: colorful plastic hair ornaments encased in a bar of glittering soap.
Made with clear glycerin soap base, soap fragrance and a pinch of soap glitter, this simple soap is an excellent beginning project.
Makes 1 4-ounce bar.
Materials and Supplies:
4 oz clear glycerin soap base
small pinch soap glitter
8 drops lavender blossom soap fragrance
assorted small plastic hair ornaments
(we used spiral hair twists)
4 oz-capacity soap mold
microwave-safe measuring cup (2-cup size)
instant-read thermometer
spray bottle filled with rubbing (isopropyl) alcohol
bamboo skewers
vegetable oil in oil mister or vegetable oil
(do not use pan spray)
Instructions:
Prepare the soap mold by spritzing lightly with vegetable oil sprayer and wiping nearly dry.
Cut clear glycerin soap base in 1-inch chunks. Place four ounces soap in a microwave-safe measuring cup. Heat on High for 15 seconds, then for 5 second intervals until soap is melted. Do not allow soap to boil.
Remove measuring cup from microwave. Stir in 8 drops soap fragrance, mixing thoroughly. Add small pinch of soap glitter, and stir gently.
Insert an instant-read thermometer to monitor soap temperature. When thermometer reads 120 degrees (or when soap forms a skin in the measuring cup), move skin aside and gently pour soap into prepared mold, filling the mold 1/4th to 1/3rd full.
Allow mold to stand for 5 to 10 minutes, until it has formed a skin strong enough to support the hair ornaments. Spritz each hair ornament lightly with rubbing alcohol, and place gently on the cooled soap film. Use the bamboo skewers to make any tiny adjustments necessary.
Reheat remaining soap in measuring cup, stir and cool to 120 degrees. Pour soap gently over hair ornaments, adding only enough soap to barely cover ornaments. Allow soap in mold to cool and form a skin for 10 to 15 minutes.
When ornaments are fairly firmly embedded in cooled soap, reheat the remaining soap in the measuring cup. Stir and cool to 120 degrees. Pour remaining soap into the mold, covering hair ornaments completely. Immediately spritz the soap surface with a light mist of rubbing alcohol to control any bubbles that have risen to the surface.
Cool soap completely before attempting to unmold. You may put the mold in the refrigerator to cool, but do not put it in the freezer. Press the mold gently with your thumb to unmold.
Allow 3 to 4 weeks for soap to cure before wrapping. Wrap completed soap with clear plastic food wrap, and attach a gift label with soap contents listed.

Glycerin Melt & Pour Soap
Make all kinds of wonderful and beautiful soaps at home.
Glycerin Melt & Pour Soap is so easy to use in crafting! Just about any fragrance or perfume can be added. Melt it on your stove in a double boiler, or in your microwave. Then add all your wonderful fragrances, colors, herbs, flowers, fruits, and your personal creative touch. It is so clear that you can even put toys inside each bar!
You can color it, craft it, pour into fun molds, cut it with cookie cutters! The list is endless. It is the most versatile crafting soap. Many professional soap makers use only glycerin Melt & Pour soap to make their beautiful creations.
Glycerin Melt and Pour soap is sold as transparent (you can see right through it) or Opaque (it is a solid white color). Both can be colored with specially designed color tabs.
There is a great deal of difference between suppliers. You want a Glycerin Melt and Pour Soap Base that doesn't set up really, really fast. You want to be able to work with your soap for a minute before it sets up.
It MUST be very gentle on the skin. Make sure it doesn't have a terrible smell to it. Many of them do and fragrances just aren't going to cover it up. You want a soap that actually smells good!
You want very clear Glycerin soap base without the heavy amber color and is made with 'real' saponified coconut oil, not chemicals. You want REAL soap, not a bunch of chemicals from the lab
Soap Crafters Company is highly recommended for your Glycerin Melt and Pour soap making supplies. Whether you are a first time hobbyist or a professional, you will find both retail and wholesale pricing available right on the web site.

Bath BOMBS!
Get a bottle of good quality witch hazel (skip the terrible stuff in the drug store) and a "good" quality adjustable fine spritzing bottle. The
recipe is really simple.
1 part citric acid
3 parts baking soda
Witch hazel
EO/FO
Any natural colorings...food coloring is good too.
Any herbs, dried flowers, etc you want to use (about 1/2 a tsp for a small batch, 1 tsp for a larger batch. Less is more.
A decent sized fork for mixing...I use my hands.
A teaspoon for packing the molds... I use my hands here also.
Weigh out your baking soda and citric acid in the ratios above. Dump them together in a bucket, large bowl, whatever. Get all the lumps out with a fork or spoon (crushing). Add your dry colorings (clays, leaves, herbs, roots, flowers etc in small amounts) Add your EO/FO drop by drop till you get the strength of scent you want. Mix well...I put mine in large plastic zip lock bag to mix then pour in a bowl for spritzing.......Mist the mixture with the witch hazel, stir in well. Keep misting and mixing till you get a consistency that will stick together in your hand. It doesn't take much witch hazel, so be careful... When right consistency, press mixture into molds firmly, pack it down good... turn over on hard flat surface if it stays together without breaking you have it right...if it breaks put back in bowl and spritz a LITTLE more....then pack in mold again and turn over after a while you will get the feel for this...let dry several hours and package......I did get this recipe off the
lists and heavily snipped it for my own use not expecting to give it out so don't know who to thank for it...BUT after ruining many ingredients and having bombs get funky with growths must say this is an excellent recipe and seems to really hold up for long time I have some that are 6 months old and still going strong...I package mine in small plastic containers...and make them about 6oz or close to it sell at 5oz for 3.00 better to be overweight then under....

Bath Bombs
Bath Bombs are great, big Fizzies. You drop one into the bath tub after you get in. They will fizz and give off a cloud of scent in your bath while you soak in the benefits of the baking soda. A god-send for an achy muscle day or a must for a bad attitude day. Wonderful fun! Kids love them as much as mom and dad, maybe even more!
What you will need: or purchase kit
1-1/2 Cups of Baking Soda
1/2 Cup of Citric Acid
Witch Hazel in a fine mist sprayer
Soap Crafters Fragrance
Large Bowl and Spoon
Molds
Optional:
Powdered Colorants (water based)
Lots of Patience
Now it is time to add a little powdered colorant. Just about 1/16th of a teaspoon or less will do! Really! Think in terms of crumbs here. Just a speck goes a very long way.
The colorant is added and now she is going to mix it in. You'll notice that it seems to all disappear. Don't worry about that. When your finished bath bomb hits the
water, all that color comes out in full force. :)
Adding fragrance or essential oils should be done by the drop. An amount as little as 1/4 teaspoon will probably be overpowering in the bath, so add drop by drop until you achieve the strength of scent you're looking for.
Once your scenting material is well blended, then it is time for the tricky part. You need to give the mixture a couple of sprays of witch hazel. Be careful of adding too much. Once you add too much, there is no going back. It will set off the fizz.
So, spritz about 3 or 4 times and stir and spritz and stir, being careful not to over spritz before you stir. You're going to get really tired of spritzing and stirring, but this is how it is done. If you take too long through this process, your Bath Bombs won't stick together very well. Figure you'll spend about 10 minutes spritzing and stirring.
When it is done, it'll stick to itself a bit when you pinch it between two fingers. Then it should be ready for the mold. You will probably think it isn't quite done, but if it begins to hold together, it is done. Be very careful you don't overdo the spritzing. Witch hazel is quite good about not setting off your fizz, but if you give it too much Witch hazel, then it will set off your fizz. And adding more of the powdered ingredients isn't going to stop it.
Leave the bath bombs in the molds for about 5 or 10 minutes, then flip the mold over and tap it out. Give it one or two spritz of Witch Hazel again to let the outside of the bath bomb get a little crust on it. It will still be fragile, but this helps a bit in toughening it up.
Set them out in a dry place until you need to wrap them in lace or use them. You might want to let them sit over night before attempting to wrap them up or package them for sale.
When storing your bath bombs, be sure to put them in a very dry place. Humidity will help them go off. Some people will put them in an oven with very low heat to dry them out well before packaging them. This is a real good idea if you live in a very humid area.

Soap Cut Outs for Kids
1/2 lb glycerin soap base (clear or white)
Food Coloring (any color)
9x9 Glass casserole dish
Tin foil or wax paper
Metal cookie cutters any size
Essential Oil or Fragrance (optional)
Spoon for stirring
Cover the bottom of the casserole dish with foil and fold the foil over the top.
Melt soap base in a double boiler or microwave just until melted, don't boil it.
Add a small amount of food coloring, just enough to color the soap, then add scent if desired and stir until completely mixed.
Pour the mixture in the casserole dish until its about 1/2 inch deep, then let it sit undisturbed about 1 hour. When completely hard, turn the casserole dish over and pull the soap out with the foil.
Peel the foil off the bottom and take your cookie cutters and cut the shapes out like you would cookie dough. If the soap gets stuck in the cutter, push the soap gently until it comes out.
Your shapes are ready to use right now!
Store any shapes to be used later in plastic wrap so they don't dry out.
*Aside from the potential dangers of working around the stove or hot liquids, this process is safe and can be recommended as a supervised activity for children.
Any unused soap can be remelted and used later on.

Rainbow Soap
What you will need:
30 ounces of Soap Crafters Clear Glycerin Melt & Pour Soap
6 color Soap Crafters Color Tabs
Suggested colors are True Red, Lemon, Grass Green, Crystal Blue and Violet
Witch Hazel in a spritzer bottle
1/3 oz of Soap Crafters Fragrance
Small bread pan (7-1/2"long x 2-1/2" deep x 3-1/2" wide) approximately, but having straight sides.
A microwave & microwave safe bowl
A chopstick or spoon to stir
Put 5 ounces of soap in a bowl with a small sliver of a color tab. Microwave it for 30 seconds. Stir with a chop stick. Keep putting it back into the microwave until melted for about 5 seconds, being careful not to let it boil or overheat. Don't stir too vigorously because you will create foam. If color isn't dark enough, add a little more slice of a color tab.
When melted, add about 1/6th of the fragrance. Stir. Pour into the CLEAN bread pan. Remove any foam or bubbles which have formed. Put into freezer for 5 minutes or less. The top of the soap will be firm. Give the top of the soap a light spritz with Witch Hazel.
Melt your next color.
When melted and stirred evenly, set aside for a couple of minutes. A light 'skin' will form on the top of the soap. Stir in your fragrance and then pour on top of the previous layer. Put into the freezer for 5 minutes or less, until the top of the soap is a bit firm. Mist top of soap with Witch hazel.
Continue these steps until all of your colors are used. Remember to let the 'next layer's melted soap' sit until a skin forms before pouring it, otherwise the soap will be too hot and will melt the previous layers.
When the colors are all used, put the mold into the freezer for 20 minutes or so, up to an hour. The soap loaf will fall right out of the bread pan. Let it get to room temperature and slice 4 bars.
Added notes:
When we made this bar of soap, we used many fragrances, one to match each color. This method adds a scent rainbow too! :)
This recipe used just a few shreds of each color tab package to make these colors. Use less if you'd like a lighter, more tinted colored soap. Use more if you want a deeper color. It doesn't come thru well in the photograph, but this soap is still very translucent. You can still see right through it, even though it is colored.

Goldfish in a bag
4 ounces Soap Crafters Clear Melt & Pour soap
2 Vinyl Goldfish
1 Baggie
1 Twist Tie
2 shreds of Crystal Blue Color Tab
1/4 teaspoon of any Soap Crafters Fragrance
Put the clear Melt and Pour soap chunks in a microwave safe dish with the 2 color tab shreds. Zap for 50 seconds, remove and gently swirl until all is melted. If you need to microwave it more, do so for only 10 seconds at a time.
When soap is melted, add fragrance and gently swirl in dish to mix, then pour into your baggie.
When a slight skin has formed (in about 1 minute or less) carefully poke the fish down into the soap. You might want to use a wooden skewer to straighten the fish when it is in the soap.
Allow the soap to set up. When it is hard in about an hour or less, twist tie the top.
This soap is extremely popular! It is the hottest thing in clear soaps these days.
Notes:
If you have trouble getting your fish to 'swim right' and they want to be 'dead fish floating in a bag", then try this method:
Pour 1/2 the soap into the bag. Put your fish in and adjust them, allow the soap to harden. Spray the top of the soap with Witch Hazel, rub in a bit. Then pour the 2nd half of the soap on top. This method gives you a little more control over those little fish.

Jewel Soap
4 ounces of Clear Melt & Pour Soap
Shavings from previously made soap, shave so it curls
1/4 teaspoon of your favorite Soap Crafters Fragrance
A microwave & microwave safe bowl
A chopstick or spoon to stir
Celtic Oval Mold (from the Milkyway Soap Mold Line or other mold)
With a sharp knife, cut shavings from previously made and multicolored soaps. For this soap, I used rainbow soap. Spray the shavings with Witch Hazel and loosely pack them into the soap mold.
Put 4 ounces of clear Melt & Pour soap in a bowl. Microwave it for 30 seconds. Stir with a chop stick. Keep putting it back into the microwave until melted for about 5 seconds, being careful not to let it boil or overheat. Don't stir too vigorously because you will create foam.
When melted, let sit until a thin skin forms on top. You might have to jiggle it a bit to see it. Add the fragrance. Stir. Pour over the shaved soap in the soap mold. Remove any foam or bubbles which have formed.
Put mold into freezer for about 1 hour. It will pop right out.

When melted, let sit until a thin skin forms on top. You might have to jiggle it a bit to see it. Add the fragrance. Stir. Pour over the shaved soap in the soap mold. Remove any foam or bubbles which have formed.
Put mold into freezer for about 1 hour. It will pop right out.
Dinosaur Soap!
One Dinosaur Finger Puppet
Mold: Basic Rectangle Item #CF4 (Milky Way Mold)
About 4 ounces of clear Melt & Pour Soap
Crystal Blue Color Tabs
A few drops of Fragrance
Melt your Melt & Pour Soap and a sliver of color tab in a microwave safe dish. Microwave for 20 seconds.
Check it and gently swirl it. Microwave for another 20 seconds or until almost melted. Swirl until all is melted and color is mixed in well.
Add a few drops of Soap Crafters Fragrance, stir it in with a chop stick. Pour into mold.
Gently push Dinosaur Finger Puppet into the liquid soap.
Let cool and harden for about 1/2 hour to an hour, then pop out of the mold.
The Dinosaur's body is hollow and doesn't fill with soap, so the soap will float well on the surface of the water while bathing.

Glycerin soap recipe
Making my own soap several years ago, gathering all the supplies from every outlet I could find, I gave it a go and decided that store bought soap was not very bad. At the least, it was a whole lot less work than this. Then all these clear soaps with little frogs and bunnies and every imaginable item right in the middle of the bars started showing up at the stores. All the labels read glycerin based. If you have ever used a glycerin-based soap, you know how moisturizing it is. If not, once you try it, you will not want to use any other type of soap again. I had never tried making glycerin soap but I knew I had heard something about melt and pour glycerin blocks. Could soap making really be as easy as melt and pour? Yes!
If you have always wanted to try soap making, but had no idea where to start, this is it.
First, you will need to gather a few supplies. Some will need to be purchased. These items should be available at any medium to large craft store or outlet. Others you can also buy or improvise with items right from your kitchen. Many people that I have discussed this soap with and recipes call for a double boiler to melt the blocks. Going one step further towards ease, we will melt the glycerin blocks right in the microwave. The only downfall to this is once you use a container for this purpose, do not use it for anything related to food after. While the glycerin blocks are non-toxic, the soap when melted seems to adhere to the plastic and you will never be able to fully rid the containers of the soaps natural scent.
Supplies Needed
Clear Glycerin Melt and Pour Blocks (White and pre-colored are available)
Microwave safe sturdy plastic container (Square shape recommended so you have a corner for pouring)
Molds
Fragrance (Cosmetic grade)
Colorant
Wooden spoon for stirring and mixing (Wood works best but any long handled utensil can be used)
Potholders (Preferably, the mitts as soap will be extremely hot when first removed from the microwave)
For fun, you will want some small items to ‘sink’ into the middle of your soap. One-piece baby toys work well, dried flowers, small cars, almost anything you can think of. While smaller items that can be totally covered are perfect for this, a medium size works well too. For example, baby’s rubber ducks bathtub toy, submerged just on the bottom half in a round bar appears to be ‘swimming’ in the soap.
Start with one block of melt and pour. One block equals ¼ lb. Place in your microwave safe sturdy plastic container, and using a setting of medium to high, melt for approximately 45 seconds. Each microwave is different, so it is important that you closely watch the melt and pour as you do this step. Your goal is to melt the block, DO NOT BOIL. This is very important. While it will not render the soap unusable, it seems to lose the soaps natural lathering abilities if boiled. Also making it hot enough to melt the molds themselves, especially if you are using purchased molds of which many are plastic.
Remove melt and pour from the microwave with mitts. Add fragrance first. Only a cosmetic grade fragrance should be used. If soap is going to be used on a young child, no scent need even be added, as the melt and pour has a natural fresh scent of its own.
If coloring is being added, add now. There are many different products for coloring available on the market. Some are cream based, which personally, I find work best. Powder based coloring is another option. Of these, there are many, many variations. There is even coloring with mica that makes the soap glitter. Again though, this is an optional step, and if you are going to add items to the soap, clear really is best.
Next, it is time to pour the mixture into your molds. Purchased molds are fine, but many items right from your own kitchen will work equally well. Small Tupperware or Rubbermaid containers work good for single bars of soap. After pouring, submerge items of your choosing into soap. Spoon should be used so as not to burn yourself. Tall cardboard potato chip cans will make a long tube of soap. Once set, tear away the tube and slice the soap into desired thickness. Larger Tupperware or Rubbermaid containers can be filled one layer at a time, resulting in a block of soap that when sliced gives a rainbow effect. Finally, a bit of advice. Experiment, experiment, experiment! The possibilities with this fun process are limited only to your imagination.

Hit 'Em Up Style
Written by D Austin
While he was schemin'
I was beamin' in the Beemer, just beamin'
Can't believe that I caught my man cheatin'
So I found another way to make him pay for it all
So I went
To Neiman-Marcus on a shopping spree
And on the way I grabbed Sole and Mia
And as the cash box rang I thought everything away
(Oops)
There goes the dreams we used to say
(oops)
There goes the time we spent away
(oops)
There goes the love I had but you cheated on me
And that's for that now
(oops)
There goes the house we made a home
(oops)
There goes you'll never leave me alone
For all the lies you told
This is what you're owed
Hey Ladies
When ya man wanna get buck wild
Just go back and hit 'em up style
Get your hands on his cash
And spend to the last dime
For all the hard times
Oh when you go then everything goes
From the crib to the ride and the clothes
So you better let 'em know
If he mess up you gotta hit 'em up
While he was braggin'
I was comin' down the hill just a-draggin'
All his pictures and clothes in a bag and
Sold everything else 'til there was just nothin' left
And I paid
All the bills about a month too late
It's a shame we have to play these games
The love we had just fades away, away
(Oops)
There goes the dreams we used to say
(oops)
There goes the time we spent away
(oops)
There goes the love I had but you cheated on me
And that's for that now
(oops)
There goes the house we made a home
(oops)
There goes you'll never leave me alone
For all the lies you told
This is what you're owed
Hey Ladies
When ya man wanna get buck wild
Just go back and hit 'em up style
Get your hands on his cash
And spend to the last dime
For all the hard times
Oh when you go then everything goes

Hey Ladies

For all the hard times
Oh when you go then everything goes
From the crib to the ride and the clothes
So you better let 'em know
If he mess up you gotta hit 'em up
All of the dreams you sold
Left me out in the cold
What happened to the days when we used to trust each other
And all of the things I sold
Will take you until you get old
To get 'em back without me
'Cos revenge is better than money, you see
Hey Ladies
When ya man wanna get buck wild

Get your hands on his cash
And spend to the last dime
