Teach Soap

It's shame we can't buy ingredients from BB but there's nothing stopping me from buying moulds so I just made an order for some so pleased! Can't wait to get them. Over here in the UK it's hard to find some good quality ones and I've been having to check out getting them from the US. Woo all excited now

Congrats! I placed an order too, but I'm a little closer. Have fun with your new molds!

Did you get the new molds they were coming out with this month?

Oh I'm not sure

I've ordered a total of 18 moulds plus the tool kit (as the video impressed me so much with how to use it and you can't get anything like that over here!) so maybe I did. My mum and sister have treated me and kept saying "Ohh get that one!" so I didn't have much time to survey everything. But I checked through all the catergories.

It doesn't actually bother me buying from abroad for things so I'll probably make another order when I have some pennies or someone fancies treating me again

Hope your order gets there soon!!! You'll have a grand time for sure!

I wonder if Bramble Berry has their new molds ready yet. I read about them some time back.

edit for spellingz

Awesome!

I'm just wondering if anyone in Australia has ever done this before. I love Aussie Soap Supplies, but there's a couple of things on the Bramble Berry website, such as the tool kit that I'd love to have. Will I end up paying more in postage than the items are worth? I can't afford it right now but when I can I'll probably E-mail Bramble Berry. Just thought someone in Aus may have already done this before.

I bought some molding putty (not used yet), and some of that dissolving paper for putting photos into soap (not used yet, either). It cost me around $30 for postage! That's maybe why I haven't tried what I bought yet - maybe they won't be worth the postage cost.

Ouch! Perhaps I'll have to give it a big think before I order anything. Problem is I really kinda want the tool kit. Perhaps I'll buy just that. I love Aus, but sometimes it would be really handy to live in the USA.

silverpegasus, do you have second hand stores there? Used dental tools sometimes find there way into second hand shops and they work well.

Weee they have been shipped

With regards to postage I bought 18 moulds and the tool kit and it cost me just under $50. It was nearly half the price of my actual order but I really didn't mind as good moulds are hard to come by!

I would definitely order again knowing the postage price, but it would be a big order like this one to make it worth the while.

Yes, International shipping can get quite pricey... I agree on the big orders. Most of our international customers wait to order until they have a big enough order to make the shipping more worth it.

Hope you get your molds soon! Thanks for the order!!!

Well I haven't received them yet but that's because customs in the UK held them for 10 days and have just sent me a letter saying I have to pay £28.37 to get them in Tax which I'm gutted about but the chance you take to have products delivered here I guess from any country.

Should get them delivered tomorrow though so excited about that

That's too bad about the tax thing. I hope when you get them, you'll have some fun with the molds and please post pictures!

I got them today! They are great and such good quality. Ones called the 'budget' moulds are what I'd class as good quality over here in some places so really pleased.

Have a little housework to do and then I'll get started on them hehe

I ordered the tool set from Aussie Soap Supplies you pay a $5 deposit and it takes a month or so all depends on when they are due for their next shipment from BB.Can't remember the final price but it was very reasonable since they won't go under their $40 min l added some pigments l needed to make it up.I also have ordered a couple of other things from BB through them ,all you do is send an email and they will tell you what you have to do from there.
