Teach Soap

I uploaded a new SoapQueen TV episode on making candy soap. If you have a blog, feel free to grab the code and embed it on your blog to share the soapy joy with others =)

That was pretty cool, I'll get to the point eventually. Just gotta keep telling myself, baby steps.

Gonna re-watch the first few episodes, it is simply amazing how much easier it seems after seeing it in action instead of just reading. Trust me, all the hard work you put into these videos is definately appreciated!!

marked for later...I gotta get to bed!

Totally amazing. The options are endless and the creativity just keeps on flowing. Thank you for enlightening us. I'm working slowly but diligently on my next fair (and etsy site) - I'm *so determined* to make this hobby/business a success (at this point I can't even imagine going back to my old profession - ) - I thank you for sharing!!

Hi, Anne-Marie,

Just wanted to chime in and say how much I enjoy and appreciate Soap Queen TV, too. I tune in every Thursday!

I'm trying to learn as much as I can, and I get a lot of info by reading books and blogs and through this forum. It is invaluable to actually see someone going through the process, though. I learn best by seeing and then doing, and the seeing gives me the confidence to move on to the doing.

I pick up lots of great tips and make note of everything that I need to know now or that I think I'll need to know later. Thank you so much for covering MP in depth. A lot of work and planning must have gone into these episodes, and it is much appreciated!

Hi Anne-Marie, I look forward to these every week! I tried my hand at making the last lot you did and it wasn't so successful I'm afraid - thank God for re-melt!

I can't locate the code for the video or I would definitely put it on my (very new) blog.

Can I suggest you do a video using those rubber stamps? Whilst I have managed them ok pretty much, I find the clean up after with a scuplting tool rather difficult and I'd love to see an expert do it.

A video doing the stamps is a great idea. Maybe we can do it for Christmas or a fall type video. It's such a versatile way to make your molds go further. Thanks for the suggestion.

Honey, the code to embedd is in the 'share' button on the Vimeo pages OR on the right hand side on the soapqueen.tv site of each video. I've copied the embedd code for last week's episode below:

Thanks Anne-Marie - I've added your video and now I realise you probably have a new one out, so I'm going to check that out right now!

PS I made those candy shaped soaps and mine were awful! However, I console myself with the fact that you've been doing this a LOT longer than me!!!
