How to Make Succulent Soap With Melt and Pour Soap
Hi Mary Elizabeth, other Hometalkers have provided you a vaireity of methods. One thing I would suggest is that after you've made the soap, if you're planning to give it as gifts, is to wrap each bar in tissue or wrapping paper and NOT a plastic wrap. I made soaps a long time ago and wrapped them in plastic wrap and the moisture still in the soap created an ugly appearance on the surface of the bars. They still worked well but were not attractive to set out on display on a bathroom counter.
