My first serious attempt at soapmaking...looks like a crappy first attempt. I got one sellable soap out of it, and it's not all that sellable. I made four soaps. Bah. BAH I SAY.

In related news, I am never using cut-open soda cans as soap molds EVER AGAIN. As container candles they've got promise, though, if I can find a way to deal with the sharp edges on top.

Speaking of candles, my thermometer is not here yet, but I am itching to try out my candle-making kit, which would require borrowing Mom's candy thermometer. How bad an idea is this?

You have my utmost sympathy concerning making molded soap.

If you want wax flavored candy the next time your mom uses it, go ahead. But your mother would be justified if she then attempted to murder you in your sleep for having done so.
