I make soap as a small part time job-really it is more of a hobby that I sell to help pay for the hobby (I am registered and all official as a business though). I don't think I could make enough money to do this full time-well at least not without a ton of work to get my products in more places.Sarahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17138854950761004976noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-725066283723489805.post-16262089387348719952010-03-22T11:52:03.070-07:002010-03-22T11:52:03.070-07:00Thank you Sarah, just curious... your introductio...Thank you Sarah, just curious... your introduction says you are a student hoping to graduate in 2008.... did you graduate?

Otherwise, they will crumble :(<br>If you really don't want to use the oven, then you can use a mold that makes individual bars. I use a Kelsei mold that makes individual bars and I still use the oven method, but this way I don't have to worry about cutting the bars.<br>SarahSarahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17138854950761004976noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-725066283723489805.post-26561684282247328242010-03-21T13:40:00.017-07:002010-03-21T13:40:00.017-07:00Hello!

I have just tried a soap based on your Salt Bar tutorial and instead of putting in in the oven, I incubated it for 11 hours. When I took it out, it was hard enough to cut, but kind of crumbled when I cut it... Any tips? xo JenJennifer Younghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12759161260648931612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-725066283723489805.post-2703663262273463742010-03-21T13:27:51.248-07:002010-03-21T13:27:51.248-07:00These look absolutely divine!These look absolutely divine!innerearthsoapshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00512064050334374547noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-725066283723489805.post-75326355567165610752010-03-21T12:22:39.678-07:002010-03-21T12:22:39.678-07:00Your new soaps are really lovely...not that your o...Your new soaps are really lovely...not that your old ones weren't. :) I especially like the looks of the Apple Pie soap.TeresaRhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15182589779839458573noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-725066283723489805.post-30169982832566685192010-03-21T11:11:40.339-07:002010-03-21T11:11:40.339-07:00lookin' good!lookin' good!Teresahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00687663114730305984noreply@blogger.com
